Speedo Mesh Equipment Bag, medium

For swim sessions where goggles, caps and other essentials need to travel together, a mesh equipment bag keeps them in one place without the bulk of a larger swim bag.

The Speedo bag is described as medium-sized and made from open-weave mesh, with a drawstring closure and YKK primary zips.

Its appeal is practical: the mesh allows airflow around stored gear, while the closures help keep the contents together. The listing does not give dimensions or a precise capacity, so fit depends on what you plan to carry.

Technical details

The bag uses open-weave mesh, which Speedo describes as strong and quick-drying. That construction suits equipment that may still be damp after a swim. It does not make the bag waterproof, though, and the open weave is not the same as a solid-sided compartment for keeping contents enclosed.

The stated size is medium. A drawstring closure keeps items together, and the primary zips are identified as YKK. There are no dimensions, volume figures or item-specific capacity details in the listing, so there is no reliable way to judge whether bulky kit will fit. It replaces an earlier Speedo Mesh Equipment Bag, but the description does not provide a model number or further comparison details.

Getting the most from it

This is designed for swimming essentials rather than a full change of clothes or oversized equipment. After a pool session, for example, you could place a cap and goggles inside, pull the drawstring closed and let the open mesh give the contents more airflow than a fully enclosed bag would. That may be useful when carrying gear home, but it is not a substitute for a waterproof pouch if you need to protect other belongings from moisture.

Compared with a basic solid bag, the mesh construction favours airflow and visibility of the contents over enclosure. Given its design, it makes more sense for keeping swim kit together than for storing items that need to stay hidden or shielded. It may suit you if you want a dedicated, medium-sized bag for regular pool essentials. It may not be the best choice if you need a stated capacity, a sealed compartment or room for larger kit.

Usage tips

Use the bag to group smaller swimming items rather than treating it as an all-purpose carryall. The drawstring is useful for gathering the opening when packing or carrying the bag, while the listed YKK primary zips add another closure element. Since the description does not explain how the zips and drawstring are arranged, avoid assuming there are separate compartments or a particular pocket layout.

The open weave is intended to dry quickly, but how quickly damp items themselves dry will depend on what is inside and the conditions around the bag. For a shared swim bag, keeping loose essentials together also makes them easier to spot when unpacking. The colour named in the product listing is Speedo Black, the broader range of colours mentioned in the description does not confirm which alternatives are available with this specific listing.

Before you decide

Will it hold a full set of swimming gear? The listing calls it medium-sized and intended for swimming essentials, but gives no dimensions or capacity. The exact fit for your kit cannot be confirmed from the available details.

Is the mesh waterproof? No waterproof claim is provided. Open-weave mesh is described as quick-drying, but it will not enclose contents like a sealed bag.

What closures does it have? The description mentions a drawstring closure and YKK primary zips. It does not specify the layout or number of compartments.

Before buying

Choose this Speedo bag if your main need is a separate place for everyday swim essentials and you value an open mesh format. If you carry larger equipment, want a defined capacity or need stronger separation from damp contents, the missing size details and open construction are meaningful drawbacks, a more enclosed bag may better suit that job.
