Impractical & not laminated
I was seeking a laminated world wall map - not for use while traveling, but to mark where I have been and for general reference. This option seemed like a long shot but since it said ‘waterproof’ and is from Nat Geo, was worth a try. It is thin, treated paper but not laminated so any markings you make would be permanent. Since it is a folded map one can assume the intended purpose is for the car/glove compartment or backpack; but that is impractical bcos a map of the entire world is not useful for a road or backpacking trip. Hence I am unclear how this particular map could be useful for anyone.
