Questions & Answers

Shopper : Big enough to fit spare mask?LILIAN T : Yes, definitely!CARL S : Yes it is.Ronald M : Yes, I use mine to carry both a 150ft reel and 50lb lift bag.FELIPE R : Yes. Tight, but fits a spare mask.Thomas G : Yes I think so
Michae Z : Where would this pocket fit on a Dive Rite Transplate system?KEVIN F : Yes, you can slide it onto the webbing on the waist.
CARL S : Which Dive Rite Pocket is better, the Velcro flap or the zipper top? The zipper pocket seems like the opening might be too small to get gear in and out where the flap has the entire square opening but then the flap can get in the way. the zipper has more attachments with the D-rings on the side and longer daisy chain on the front.IVAN K : Not a big fan of zippers underwater, especially with gloves. The flap works well and I have not had any issues with it.Ronald M : I prefer the Velcro, it makes for the largest possible opening and allows you to secure item slightly larger than the pocket. the velcro pads are very large to allow for a lot of adjustment. Also for multiple items in a pouch, there are 2 securing lines within the pocket which would get caught in the zipper if you remove one item and want to keep another secure in the pouch.this doesn't matter with the Velcro.BERT T : I have the zipper pocket. I think it is more secure than Velcro. Access is easy. My experience with Velcro is, that overtime in seawater and sand, it does not close as securely.Sabrina L : I can't really comment on the Zipper Pocket version, but the velcro flap has an intense amount of velcro. I'm going to need to cover some of it up so it won't be so difficult to open underwater.JAMES B : I've got the Velcro Flap and often (as you hinted in your question), the flap gets in the way and it's good velcro so it does take some effort to lift the flap. I think the Zipper is a better choice from my viewpoint.MARK B : I have both. The velcro has a lot of surface area and is difficult to open, takes alot of pulling. Would be good for emergency supplies or something needed once or a few times in a dive. The top corners may not close tight (there is a small gap) so small loose items might fall out. The zipper works nice for my use, collecting shark teeth and similar small items over the course of a dive. Works well enough with 5mm gloves. So your choice depends on your use.NICK M : I have only used the one with a zipper. Never had a problem getting stuff in or out. However the zipper is quite a small gauge and not so easy to open or close despite adding a bigger puller to it. Rgds Nick.

Great pocket - difficult to open

While I liked the design of this pouch (with the extra little zip open pocket) and the internal line to which one can attach "stuff", the amount of Velcro on the closing face may be a little more than is needed. I appreciate a pocket that will stay closed, but the Velcro can be so well-stuck, that you have to hold the pocket with one hand, while peeling open the flap with the other. The extra force can jar stuff in the pocket causing it to fall out. I thought the Velcro closure would be easier to manage - especially since I dive in 5,, gloves up in the chilly Northeast waters - but I think the zipper version would have been a better choice.

Great add-on pocket

By WILLIAM G.

I added straps to mount the pocket horizontally to my waist tank belt.

Part of Dive Rites new line of harness accessory pockets that builds upon technology from the backpacking industry. Dive Rites Bellows Pocket is now available as a vertical pocket with either a zipper closure (see SKU: DIVBZP), or as a horizontal zipper closure (see SKU: DIVBHP). Each new pocket includes daisy chain webbing on the external pocket for clipping Z-knives, trauma shears (see SKU's: DIVAC3211 or DIVAC3212) or any tool that you need in easy reach. Cave diving this week? No worries, clip a Z-knife to your pocket. Wreck diving next week? Switch out the Z-knife for a pair of trauma shears or leave them both attached.

You have probably seen daisy chain technology on hiking and mountaineering backpacks. Daisy chains are webbing loops sewn to form a chain. On backpacks, they allow you to attach carabineers for accessories. Dive Rite has taken that concept one step further by developing unique sheaths for our cutting devices that will clip into the daisy loops.

But that's not all. Inside our new pockets resides a 36" (92 cm), looped lanyard to clip off reels, line markers and pocket lights. No more fumbling for the right tools, just pull out the lanyard, select the tool you need, and stuff the loaded lanyard back in the pocket. Lanyard too long? Simply cut and shorten the cord, re-tie the simple knot and cut off the excess. We've seen a few divers out there sporting their own homemade version. Now the rest of us can enjoy the same great idea.

The Dive Rite Bellows Hook and Loop Pocket is made from durable 1,000-denier ballistic nylon fabric is tear and abrasion resistant. The heavy-duty Velcro create large openings to fit hands wearing gloves. 2" (50mm) nylon webbing loops on the back of the pocket slide over a standard 2" (50mm) webbing waist strap and secures the pocket into place. Nickel plated brass drainage grommets resist rust and corrosion. The pockets internal depth expands from 0.5" to 2.5" (1.3cm to 6.35cm) to accommodate slates, maps, dive tables, spare masks, reels, Jon-lines and lights. The Pocket measures (H x W x D) 10" x 6" x 2.5" (25.4cm x 15.2cm x 6.4cm) with a volume of 150 cubic inches (2.46 liters) and weighs 4.4 oz. (125 g).
