Questions & Answers

Shopper : do you ship to thailand?darrick c : Hello, yes, we can ship this to Thailand with International Shipping charge.
LINDA V : Is the size of the BC different between the large and xlarge, or is just the straps/cumberbund longer?  Seems like the pockets are too far back on the large.darrick c : Hello Linda, you are looking at 4 inch difference in the Shoulder and Waist area between the Large and XLarge size.
Emily L : Is there a difference between this and the women’s model, other than color?darrick c : Hello, the yellow and blue are the same just different colors. The Pink version is designed for women, so the shoulder strap on the BCD curve a bit to contour on the side of the bust. Whereas the Yellow and Blue do not have this contour.
Katherine M : My husband is 6'5" tall but weighs only 224 and has a 40" waist. Is a large tall enough? He has a long torso.darrick c : Hello Katherine, I would suggest the size Large for your Husband's frame.DANIEL D : My 6’ 220lb son wore my medium and it was fine. He may find a large too big.
REGINALDO B : What is this difference between this BC and the latest model?darrick c : Hello Reginaldo, the color of the BCD that is the only difference.

Excellent BCD

This BCD has it all! Comfort: fits like a soft hug! Large zipped pockets are easy to access, Hooks and clips in several places for accessories and octo as you want them to be. Bladder wraps around so it won't throw you face first into the water at the surface. Conveniently located dump cords. Shoulder strap detach to allow folding it up for travel/packing.

Very durable and comfortable.

I have dove with this BC for the last 4 years. My only complaint is the integrated weight pockets don?t keep the weights secure they always hang halfway out. Other than this issue it is a great BC.

Light and perfect for travel

I liked the back pack that comes with, did not expected that. I used this BCD once and I liked. I used 6 lbs on each side and it seems very stable. It is comfortable and light, making the right travel BCD. I would buy again.

200 Dives all over the world, still going strong!!

Love this BC It's been all over the world, No wear and tear after 200 dives, still going strong. Only small issue....be careful with weight pockets mine came out a little more easily than I would like, lost one in Molokai, so be sure they are securely locked ,but other than that light weigh easy packing great product.

So light and convenient

Very light weight and easy for travel. I had a mares bcd previously that weighed a lot more and made it more difficult to travel on foot with my dive gear. The weight of this bcd was the difference of whether or not I would be able to dive in Nice, France because it did not make my luggage overweight. It’s also very comfortable. Highly recommend!

Great Tavel BC, Super compact and light and comfortable in use

First thing this is amazing how small and light it packs, perfect for travel, just need to practice how to re-fold it. In use it works as good as any other BC, comfortable with good straps and adjustment keeping it in place. Plenty of generous pockets with big zippered openings, plus rear pockets for additional weights. The integrated weight system works well and is easy to use, but like all systems can make the jacket cumbersome maneuvering on deck. The tank strap works Ok, but you have to pay attention to the upper stabilizing strap and typical of travel BC’s the back support is soft, but is well padded. Sizing is a bit generous, I am 165 lbs and maybe my Medium jacket could have been tighter.

Travel BC

I was looking for a light, travel BC for warm water diving and had owned Cressi for the past 15 years - this turned out to be the perfect choice. It was familiar and had all the features I need for travel and warm water. It is comfortable and met all of my expectations.

Just Perfect!

This is my 1st BCD purchase and so glad to have my own and not waste the first dive on rental gear getting it setup and figured out. Just returned from the western Caribbean having completed 9 dives and my Advanced Open Water training. The BCD is comfortable and has all the features I have found to appreciate. Integrated weights and the two additional pockets for trim control make it so nice to ditch the uncomfortable and ever shifting weight belt. Nice sized cummerbund make the waist strap comfortable. Very compact and lightweight for travel. Air dump pulls are all easily reached! No reaching far behind your back searching for the pull!. Enough rings to secure your gages and accessories. Was also pleasantly surprised with how quickly the BCD dried out when in the shade. While I'm no BCD expert, After using many rentals, I really found this BCD to be just about perfect for my dive travels.

A+, great price, great quality. Small, lightweight, affordable. I have a ScubaPro Hydros, the Cressi is my backup. Dive shops and dive operations around the world carry Cressi for a reason. Bulletproof. A+, recommend for the quality and price.

Very comfortable jacket-style travel BC

As a previous BC renter, I was a little concerned what diving without a rigid back tank support piece would feel like. But with the built-in back padding I never even felt any difference. Very comfortable BC, and I was pleasantly surprised how large the pockets are and have robust zippers. On my last dive, we had no current at the surface and the granny line from the rear of the boat to the mooring ball was all loose and a diver coming to the mooring ball behind me pulled the line taught, the line somehow entangled on me and popped my left weight pocket out - and down to the depths I watched it go... Divemaster grabbed me another 4 lbs though, and I was able to finish the dive. Lesson learned here, with loose granny lines and these rigid weight pocket handles. I ordered a replacement 10lb weight pocket for $25 or $30. The BC rolls up so small in it's own bag that I can place it, my regulator bag, and my dive book easily in a carry-on bag when I fly. I am very pleased with, and recommend this product!

Cressi traveling BC a solid warm water performer.

It's a good traveling BC. It packs small in it's own bag leaving extra room in our traveling back. My wife liked that. I consider it an upgrade over my old back inflation BC. In fact I believe my old BC was trapping air. With thIS BC, I'm using less weight. Always a plus. I'm tall and slender and I was able to snug it up without difficulty. Very happy overall. The best part was this was last year's model and Leisurepro had it at a fantastic price. Thank you Leisure pro.

Perfect!

I bought this to replace a well-loved Aqualung Zuma that is falling apart. I thought this would take up more space in my bag than the Zuma but it actually packs up smaller! Very light, packs small, comes with a travel pouch that turned out to be quite useful. Two good sized pockets (compared to the Zuma which had one small pocket), has weight pockets in the back in addition to the integrated weights. I confess to having to watch the video ... the integrated weight pockets wouldn't snap in until I saw the trick on the video to hold the giant D rings. I'm 5'7" 135 lbs and bought the small.Fits well, front straps and velcro band are too big but is workable.

Great travel bc at a great price.

I tried out a few "foldable" bcs, but really prefer the feel of a jacket style. This one folds up well and allows me to take just one duffle instead of a separate dive bag.

Perfect balance between travel and full feature

Just back from a week in Bonaire using this bc for the first time. I've been diving since the 80's and have used many types of bc's. I have a very minimal back inflation travel bcd I used for years but I doubt I'll ever use again after the Cressi experience. The back inflation one without weight integration was always moving around u/w and sucked at the surface. The Cressi has Velcro waist band and buckle straps at the waist, chest strap as well. Stays put. Weight pockets are easy to attach and release. Inflator hose routing and bonus octo keeper work perfectly, hoses stay put. A great bcd is one you forget you have on and that's the best way I'd describe this one. Definitely pay attention to how it's folded before you open it up the first time. Packs great. A week of diving and no water in it and I keep myself very light on lead. I must have said 10 times on the trip how much I love this thing. Was a steal buying last years model.

Easy to pack for travel.Good performance after 12 dives. The integrated weight system needsto be carefully monitored. The holders slopped out andmustbepushed securely in and thetank strap slipped on the first 2 dive and hadto be tightened twice after tgat it worked ok. Very lite weight

Never buy Cressi BCD again

Brought this type of BCD, online, as I travel frequently. Within a month the dump valve insert came away from BCD bladder, allowing air to escape and water in, now unusable. Attempted to contact Cressi, no reply, I must pay over $200 to return BCD to where I brought product, an extra $200 a manufacturer fault!!

Outstanding travel/recreational BC

By VERONICA M.

If you're flying to warm water locations, this is the BC for you. Yes it is pricey and yes it is worth it. Things I love: 1) Packs into an impossibly small size weighing only a little over 5 lbs! 2) The integrated weight system is secure and very easy to use. 3) Very large and easily accessible pockets with plenty of room for everything I may want to bring along. 4) Plenty of D rings in all the right places for recreational diving. 5) Trim pockets I never thought I needed but now lov...

Great BCD for travel

By CarinLA

I have used this BCD all over the world. It packs so small and dries quickly. It is light, dependable and high quality. I have used in salt, caves, cenetoes, Indonesia, Bonaire, Cozumel and it works perfectly. I think that there may be more effective BCDs for more frequent divers, but for travel, there is nothing better when you want to keep the equipment and luggage to a minimum. I am a size small, 5'3", 34E and 140lbs and it fits great. lots of pockets/features for the size

Cressi Travelight BCD

Cressi Travelight BCD

Perfect for travel, the Cressi Travelight BCD is the perfect combination of form and function that makes this model a perfect choice both for dive trips as well as for divers who value the comfort, hydrodynamics and sense of freedom provided by light lean jackets.

Designed for Travel

Extraordinarily practical for transport with space and weight restrictions: 2.5Kg (size M) and, as it can be folded, a stowage volume of just 135 cm³, (36x25x15), a simple “little package”

Cressi Travelight BCD

Lock Aid System 2.0 + Cargo Pockets

Lock Aid System 2.0 facilitates automatic intuitive pocket insertion/extraction, even while wearing the jacket and under challenging conditions. Two spacious, deep pockets with zipper closures and bottom and side gussets ensure plenty of carrying capacity.

Cressi Travelight BCD

Independent Waist Strap

The waist strap is independent of the air bladder so that the jacket will always fit properly without feeling constrictive when inflated.

Cressi Travelight BCD

Included Carrying Case

The Cressi Travelight BCD comes folded in its own carrying case and the folding strap can be used as a crotch strap.

Cressi Travelight BCD
Cressi Travelight BCD

The Cressi Travelight is a lightweight version of a traditional jacket BCD with all around lift to provide good balance and trim under the water and support while on the surface. The overall weight of the Travelight has been reduced by careful selection of strong but light materials to allow the BCD to be packed down into a very small carry bag that is ideal for travelling.

The BCD bladder uses a durable internally urethane laminated 420/210-Denier nylon to provide the necessary strength without adversely affecting the weight and light alloys have been used to make the D-rings in place of traditional stainless-steel. This weight and bulk reduction don't mean that the Travelight is unable to support a full integrated weight system with trim pockets. The Cressi Travelight BCD comes with the integrated lock aid quick-release weight system that hold up to 20 lbs (9kg), with 10 lbs (4.5kg) in each pocket, and two additional rear non-releasable trim weight pockets that help increase-stability in the water.

The Travelight is also fitted with more traditional features such as a rear kidney and right shoulder pull dumps, a inflator integrated pull dump on the left shoulder and manual deflation from the inflator assembly. A large zipped pocket can be found on either side of the BCD for convenient storage of accessories. The Travelight's harness system uses traditional "squeeze-style" quick-release buckles and adjustable straps on the shoulders, chest, and waist for precise adjustment -and fit. A hook and loop adjustable waist cummerbund provide extra security and comfort. A flexible padded back pad with twin cylinder cam bands provides good back protection and cylinder security while still allowing the BCD to be quickly folded and packed away. The BCD comes equipped with a 3/8" low-pressure hose and provides from 13.5 to 36 lbs (6.1 to 16.3kg) of lift and weighs 5 to 6.2 lbs (2.3 to 2.8kg). The Cressi Travelight BCD is available in multiple sizes and comes with an owner's manual.
