I think this could be avoided by not ever using the closure loop as a handle since I think this may be what got it started. Either that or I hooked it on something and pulled too hard.

Extremely happy with, and highly recommend all 3.
P.S. I've been to lots of good conventions but this one was the best. Thanks Indiana crew and all of the volunteers!

The coated webbing peeling off is probably a warranty issue. I'd be happy to take a look.
And of course, as with dry bags and anything with a roll down closure, you have to leave empty space to allow for the rolls. Or you could just not put so dang much stuff in.
