Highlander Water Resistant Map Case to Protect Maps, Phones & Valuables | Touch Screen Compatible | Perfect for Outdoor, Camping, Military, & Hiking. Foldable & Easy to Carry

Looks like it'll keep your map dry, easy to read through the plastic. Well priced too.

It's quite robust and does the job well. Easy to carry and easy to fold.

Used on many occasions. Very useful

Water resistant not waterproof so you’ll still need to keep an eye on water ingress. I’ve used it lots now in the hills. Very handy item and I’m pleased with it, especially when used with printed off paper maps from the OS App.

It was helpful as a map holder in the sense that the opened route guide we used fitted the map case and was easily visible. However, the first (and only) day on our three week trek that it rained, resulted in the map book becoming damp. In addition, after three weeks continuous use, the velcro was fraying and not holding the fold closed in moderate breeze, or moderate snagging on clothing. Good value for calm dry conditions, not for rainy weather, despite its waterproof claims.

Going hiking in ad weather means I needed a map holder which would be waterproof. This product serves me well. The pockets are good and the map fits well. It can be folded and stored away in the backpack if not needed. Navigating using it means that the map never gets wet. An essential piece of it for all hikers.

I specifically wanted a map holder for OS maps - to use for map storage when I’m out and to protect and view the map when needed. I primarily use the maps for cycling so the holder will be in & out my pannier as required. I echo other reviewers - depending on how you orientate the map the holder can be too wide. You obviously need to fold the map until its displays what you need - a bit awkward but does work. The velcro for the viewing window is strong and no doubt will stay closed keeping the map safe - I’m not sure how dry but using it out in pouring rain is asking for trouble. The neck/shoulder strap is good and a decent length. The velcro fastener for closing the holder has two options - close it like a book (see my photos) or you can roll it up. For the money its good - if you use OS maps I would recommend getting one.

Would recommend - yes it easily fits OS maps opened to a square. I doubt it would fold in half at that point but I used it for printed maps onto separate sheets of A4/A3. Velcro tab that holds it folded in half also useful for holding pocket open (we've all been there when velcro attaches itself when you don't want it to) and it can hold it in half the other way with the transparent sides to the outside. Velcro opening very simple to open/close - I'm sure my last one was hard work to fight your way into it, making your journey restricted to the one showing, but I accessed this one a lot in my recent use of it. Very useful that it folds in half so easily, detachable carrying strap and even the bag it came in has been useful. Only the one pocket - sometimes you might want a separate one for compass etc - but the simplicity of this one really works.
