These duffle bags are designed for frequent transport of pickleball equipment, accommodating paddles, balls, shoes, and personal items in a single compartment. The main body uses a 600D polyester base with a thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) laminate that adds abrasion resistance and water repellency.
Internal volume measures approximately 45 liters, sufficient for two standard paddles, a ball tube, and a pair of court shoes. Empty weight is kept below 0.9 kg to meet airline carry‑on limits for most regional carriers.
Exterior fabric: 600D polyester yarn count, coated with a 0.15 mm TPU film delivering a hydrostatic head rating of 1500 mm. This combination resists rain splashes and court surface abrasion.
Reinforcement: double‑stitched seams with 3‑bar tack reinforcement at strap attachments and bottom corners. Stitching uses bonded polyester thread with a tensile strength of 5.5 N/tex.
Hardware: YKK #8 coil zipper with a pull tab rated for 10,000 cycles; heavy‑duty nylon webbing straps (width 38 mm) with a break strength of 2.2 kN; side‑release buckles made from acetal copolymer.
Main compartment opens via a U‑shaped zipper that allows full‑width access, reducing the need to dig through gear. Interior includes a mesh pocket (15 cm × 10 cm) for small items and a padded sleeve (30 cm × 5 cm) sized for a paddle.
External attributes: two side zip pockets (each 12 cm × 8 cm) for water bottles or accessories, a reinforced bottom panel with 4 mm EVA foam to protect contents from impact, and reflective piping (width 5 mm) for low‑visibility conditions.
Carry options: top‑handle webbing with a grip overlay, detachable shoulder strap adjustable from 70 cm to 130 cm, and trolley sleeve (width 22 cm) on the rear for rolling luggage compatibility.
| Parameter | Typical Value | Test Method / Note |
|---|---|---|
| External dimensions (L × W × H) | 55 cm × 30 cm × 25 cm | Measured at ambient temperature |
| Internal volume | 45 L | Water displacement method |
| Empty weight | 0.85 kg | Scale tolerance ±0.02 kg |
| Water resistance (hydrostatic head) | 1500 mm | ISO 811 |
| Zipper cycle life | 10,000 cycles | YKK specification |
| Strap break strength | 2.2 kN | ASTM D5034 |
Logo application: screen printing on the front panel (max print area 20 cm × 12 cm) or embroidery on the side pocket flap (max stitch count 8,000).
Color choices: base fabric available in black, navy, royal, and charcoal; TPU coating can be tinted to match Pantone references upon request.
Strap configuration: optional padded shoulder pad (thickness 10 mm) or conversion to a backpack style with adjustable sternum strap.
Additional compartments: internal zippered mesh divider (width 30 cm) or external shoe compartment with ventilation eyelets.
The bag serves sports teams that travel to regional tournaments, allowing players to consolidate gear into a single unit that fits overhead bins on most commuter aircraft.
Retail distributors stock the product for pro‑shops and club pro‑shops where customers seek a durable, weather‑resistant solution for daily court use and weekend getaways.
Corporate wellness programs purchase the duffle as part of employee activity kits, valuing the removable shoulder strap for gym‑to‑office transitions.
Incoming fabric is inspected for yarn count deviation (±5 %) and coating adhesion (cross‑hatch test, rating 4B or better per ASTM D3359).
Each finished unit undergoes a seam strength test (minimum 18 N/mm) and a zipper functionality check (smooth travel over 50 cm with no snag).
Random sampling includes a drop test from 1.2 m onto concrete; the bag must exhibit no seam rupture or permanent deformation.
Units are packed flat in a polyethylene bag (thickness 0.05 mm) then placed in a five‑wall corrugated carton (dimensions 58 cm × 33 cm × 28 cm) with a maximum gross weight of 18 kg per carton.
Cartons are sealed with pressure‑sensitive tape (width 48 mm) and stacked on pallets (size 1.1 m × 1.1 m) with a maximum height of 1.6 m for safe forklift handling.
For export shipments, a moisture barrier sheet (silica gel packets, 5 g per carton) is included to control humidity during transit.
