Wetbag that doesn't get "damp"?

Ok, another recommendation is needed. I have 4 Leslies wetbags, but they don't "travel" very well for a couple days because they get damp on the outside and the smell wafts out of them. Can anyone recommend a wetbag that is superb - if there is one? The PlanetWise bags say they are "sealed" so does this make them a little more waterproof?

I like being able to travel with our CD rather than do sposies, but the wetbags start to make the suitcase smell/seem gross when we get home with them (though leaving it open for a few hours seems to do the trick just fine).

    I've traveled with our Planet Wise wetbag and never noticed and dampness or smell.  We actually also use the large hanging wetbag in the place of a diaper pail.  =)

    P.S.  I know what you mean - we also have Wahmies wetbags for daycare that I've used for travel and they do get damp and smelly.

    We have 2 wetbags.  The one I bought at Target (Wet Happens is the brand,  I think) gets damp like that but our Planetwise one does not.

    I've never had this problem. In fact I've forgotten wet dipes in my wetbag for days on end and had no problems. They stayed in a diaper bag at daycare allday stuffed to the brim too.

    My wetbags are Mommy's Touch. Just plain pul, nothing fancy.

    I have 3 wetbags (wahmies, planet wise, and wet happened?) and all 3 of them get damp and stink.  I have to use a plastic bag over the wetbag, which kind of defeats the purpose of a wetbag. 

    I just sewed my own wetbag, with 2 layers of PUL so hopefully that one won't get damp.  I haven't tried it yet because I am still trying to figure out how to sew on the zipper.
