Can you recommend me one? The one I got is way too heavy and bulky. Typical stuff you can find in the Myer Centre.

I need something lighter and also quite resistant to tears.

Cheers!

Typically most people will buy a light weight dry sack such as these http://www.seatosummit.com.au/products/ ... ef=outdoor
You can get many variations of these (heavier duty etc) through S2S and ebay.

They are great. I wanted to try the DIY route and made myself some cuben bags but the $$$ and time is not for everyone.

But having said that, I actually carry my toilet paper and alcohol wipes in a ziploc bag in an easy to get to place

I use a small stuffsack that came with an old sleeping mat

are you looking for an organizer, or more of just a bag to keep it in? most of my stuff lives in a 1L dry bag, but a ziplock will do.
for a lighter weight organizer, the eagle creek one looks okay. or you can get lots of cuben fiber or similar fabric ones on etsy. Lots of dopp bags in that sort of material.

Am I missing something?

Ziplock bag, if you want to lash out weight wise.

Otherwise toothbrush, mini toothpaste, and maybe some deodorant, although no point in deodorant if trip is over 3 days....

I just use a plastic supermarket shopping bag

I am after a heavy duty yet light bag since I'll be carrying a heavy pack for hiking in the mountains of Asia.

A zip lock bag will only last me few days.

Yeap preferably an organiser to keep things tidy.

Cheers!

I use a heavy gauge 15cm x 20cm zip loc type bag - 8 grams. The one in the picture has lasted over 50 days of walking and cycle touring. I expect it to keep going for a fair while longer. It is usually quite full and just shoved into the pack/panniers without particular care. Transparent bags reduce the need for an organiser arrangement. It also handles liquids on airline flights. I use some smaller standard ziplock bags inside to maintain some semblance of order.

While I purchased it in a pack of 5 or 6 in Denmark I am sure I have seen similar on the supermarket shelves here.

Toiletries bag? I have a small dry bag for the trowel and (glad-bagged) dunny paper, and the toothbrush and paster/bicarb go loose in a small pocket of the pack. What other toiletries does one need?

Medications, ear plugs, bit of dental floss, bit of soap depending on circumstances. I use a small drawstring cuban fibre bag (bought with others from someone on this forum). Plenty durable. Weighs 4 grams.

Heavy duty Ziplock Steamer bag

I use one of these http://images.esellerpro.com/2296/W/170 ... yote_2.jpg it is a UK surplus toiletries wrap

Anything transparent, so that you can go straight to what you want instead of having to rummage around.
