Description

The Orca Mesh Backpack is a swim bag for training days: a light, durable, water-resistant backpack with a big mesh panel, so wet gear can breathe and dry faster while you travel. It measures 74 x 46 cm and keeps your towel, swimmers, cap, goggles and wetsuit together in one bag on your back.

Who it's for

Squad swimmers, open water regulars and triathletes going from the water straight to work, school or home. After a 6am set at the local pool or a lap of the bay, everything wet goes in one bag and the air gets to it on the drive home, instead of sitting sealed in a gym bag until lunchtime.

How the mesh helps

The front of the bag is open mesh, so air moves through your towel and swimmers and they dry faster. When you get home, hang the bag up with the top open and it keeps drying on the hook.

Size and what fits

At 74 x 46 cm there is room for a full training kit: towel, swimmers, cap and goggles, plus a wetsuit after an open water swim. A mesh pocket on the side takes a drink bottle, the top rolls down and clips closed, and two shoulder straps carry it on your back so your hands are free for the car keys.

Looking after it

Rinse the bag in fresh water after it has carried salty or chlorinated gear, and hang it open in the shade to dry. Salt and chlorine left to dry in the mesh are what wear out swim kit, bags included.
