I replaced them with Event bags which have the straps on the side and stay compressed.
I don't worry about my outer bags or panniers being 100% waterproof.

Maybe I have been lucky? or you were just unlucky? All of the sizes I had worked quite well in dust, sand, water, etc. I definitely recommend them. They even made it on a whitewater raft down the Zambezi...after 5 months of use in desert areas. That was enough to sell me
I'll definitely check out Event though. Always looking for better equipment!
