Waterproof Colostomy Covers

I have a colostomy and am searching for a waterproof bag cover that actually keeps the bag dry. Reviews on Amazon for most bag covers I see indicate that the covers are not actually keeping the bag dry. I'd rather not use tape or adhesive due to sensitive skin.

  1. Hi . I can't personally speak to the products, but I had previously heard positive things about the site Spoonie Threads, with a backstory about specifically designing items for those with disabilities. Here is a link to their about us page (https://spooniethreads.com/pages/about-us) and here is the ostomy support page (https://spooniethreads.com/collections/accessory-ostomy-bags). Hope this information is helpful and that others chime in with ideas and thoughts on what has helped them. Wishing you the best. Richard (Team Member)

    1. thank you for the info! 🙏

  2. I don't know about the reviews of this company, but you might want to check them out: https://ostomybagholder.com/products/shower-cover


    My husband resorted to taping one ostomy bag that he always used when he got in the pool. The tape just covered the bag itself and wasn't on his skin. But if that bothers you, you might also want to check out this company's product: https://www.dryprousa.com/products/waterproof-ostomy-protector

    I don't know what the reviews are on either of these products, but maybe someone else will chime in with their review. One more suggestion I can make is to check with a local medical supply shop. They might have a waterproof product they sell, or maybe they can steer you in the direction of where to order a good cover. I hope this helps, and I wish you the best in your search.
