Swim Duffel Bag Variants We Build

The wet section size and the shell grade separate a swim-school bag from a retail one. All four share the welded TPU cell.

Construction

Where Swim Duffel Bags Fail: and What We Do About It

Three failures, all inside the wet cell. Each one is decided by a process choice at sample stage, not by the shell fabric.
1

The wet cell seeps through its seams

Our Guangzhou team coordinates design, cutting, sewing, printing and packing. Specialist logo or sealed-compartment requirements are reviewed during sampling, with the process and inspection criteria confirmed for your bag.
See: Wet Bags · Manufacturing Capabilities
2

The wet zip is a row of holes

A standard coil zip lets water track through the teeth and the stitch line. We specify a water-resistant coated zip on the wet cell with a 15–20 mm storm flap, and place the zip on the top face so pooled water sits away from it. The closure spec has to match whatever your product page claims.
See: Trims & Hardware · Golden Sample
3

The dry side never dries

A dry compartment with no airflow holds moisture from a damp towel for days. We vent it with 100–200 GSM mesh panels, at least 150 cm² per side, and keep the towel space at the end tunnel so it does not sit against the wet cell wall.
