Are you an outdoors enthusiast looking for a place to store your valuables during your adventures? The Otterbox 1000 is a small case that is crush proof, waterproof, and airtight. It comes in a variety of colors and is perfect for credit cards, keys, cell phones, and more. This review will discuss the various ways that the Otterbox 1000 might be useful to a sportsman, camper, or hiker.

My personal favorite use for the Otterbox 1000 is for my kayaking trips. Dropping a personal item in the water is almost a given considering the hazards of a long kayak trip. I have ruined more than a few cell phones while kayaking. As a result I always carry a waterproof case with me when kayaking, but the great thing about the Otterbox 1000 is that it can easily tie to my belt or life preserver. This feature is great because it keeps my belongings at arms reach just in case of an emergency. Because the case is waterproof I can store a book of matches, my cell phone, or even a small signal flare inside. I have yet to have a life-threatening situation on a kayaking trip, but the Otterbox 1000 case does give me some peace of mind when I'm in a freezing body of water, especially because it floats.

I also bring an Otterbox 1000 with me when I'm camping. It is small enough to fit in my backpack or cargo pocket while still carrying what would normally be in my pockets. This waterproof case will protect your identification cards, electronics, and even matches/tinder from getting wet. I have been caught out in a downpour several times while camping, leaving everything I own soaked to the core. Having a small waterproof case on hand can be a life saver, all without being too cumbersome.

While the Otterbox 1000 is certainly not the biggest waterproof case on the market, it does provide a portable solution for your small items. In my opinion there is not a more useful waterproof case for your every day carry needs.
