Giantz Rooftop Cargo Bag Waterproof Car Luggage Carrier 15 Cubic Ft Universal

A hard roof box is a big spend and a bigger storage problem for the eleven months it is off the car. A soft bag covers the same trips for less, folds into its own sack, and takes odd shapes a rigid shell would never close over.

The fabric is doing the waterproofing

The shell is 500D 525gsm PVC, a heavy coated fabric rather than light nylon, which is what lets it sit against a roof at highway speed without flogging itself apart. Waterproof zips run the opening with widened flaps folded over them, so the seam that normally leaks is covered twice; Giantz list sealed seams too.

Goes on a bare roof, not just a rack

Door hooks are supplied for cars with no rails or bars: they locate inside the door apertures with straps through the cabin, so the bag travels on a hatchback that has never had a rack. Where rails exist, the same straps tie straight to them. Underneath, a 120 x 90 cm anti-slip mat stops the bag creeping and keeps grit out of the clear coat.
