With an internal capacity of 135 liters, this waterproof duffel is one of the roomiest bags on the market. Freedivers will appreciate the fact that the Gorilla Pro is long enough to accommodate a set of freediving fins, and all water sports enthusiasts will love the watertight construction.

In terms of transportation, the two padded handles fit nicely in the hand, or you can use them to strap the bag to your back, backpack-style. There’s also a top grab handle and an end lift handle to make it easy to pop the bag back into the car or onto a luggage carousel.
