Why Choose the Osprey Transporter as Your Diving Duffel Bag
Waterproof Protection Meets Durability
This diving duffel bag is one of very few that meets an official waterproof IPX‑7 rating. While most duffel bags resist moisture, this model withstands submersion, making it ideal as a scuba duffel bag for wet dive zones and humid environments. Combined with rugged TPU‑coated recycled nylon, it’s designed for years of water‑logged usage
Structured for Organizing Dive Gear
The wide‑opening YKK waterproof zipper and internal mesh compression pocket allow divers to organize bulky items like regulators, wetsuits, dive computers, masks, and fins. The internal straps alleviate zipper stress and help compress items for compact storage.
Carry Options That Fit the Dive Lifecycle
When loaded with wet gear, carry comfort and adaptability matter. The removable backpack harness lets users shoulder‑carry heavy loads; grab handles on ends and sides facilitate hauling multiple bags; lash‑points keep gear secured to tanks racks, dive boats, or transport vehicles.
