【DOPPELGANGER】Tarpaulin Waist Bag Review
I'm interested in the appearance and ease of handling.
As you said, the zipper is hard to open and I always have to use both hands to open it. What I disliked more was that the glue-like substance was like a frayed thread.
When I tried to remove it, the adhesion between the Zipper and Back peeled off and the Back was always open-mouthed.
Waterproofness and capacity are good if you don't mind the look, but for me the look, ease of use, and durability were a concern.

Waterproofness is certain.
Zipper may indeed be difficult to close.
Acceptable considering Waterproofness.
I also have KUSHITANI's HipBack, but if you're on the fence, this is better.

Even valuables will be protected from the rain.
The material is Tarpaulins and is said to be Completely Waterproof. I have not used it in the rain, so I am not sure how effective it is, but I have heard a lot about the function of Tarpaulins, so I have high expectations. I have not used it in the rain, so I am not sure how well it works, but I have heard a lot about the Tarpaulins feature, so I expect it to work.
The Gloves Holder on the Belt is very useful when you get off the motorcycle and take off your gloves to move around. The Bottle holder is not so often used, but the Mesh pocket is useful for keeping thin items such as anti-fog paper for your glasses.
Also, as everyone has mentioned, the waterproof fastener in the main air chamber is hard. I think it would be a good idea to apply the attached Vaseline to the fastener periodically, as it will make it somewhat smoother. The fastener in the front pocket of the bag is not completely waterproof and is much smoother than the fastener in the main compartment. It is convenient to put small items that are often taken out in this pocket.

I used it.
Opening and closing the MainFastener is Large strange anyway.
The bag was large and sturdy even when soaking wet, but the fastener was not very useful, so I went back to the Waist Bag I had been using.
