Know before you buy
The dedicated padded compartment is designed to securely hold one paddle. However, the additional internal space and divider allow you to store a second paddle alongside your other gear if needed.
The 8-liter capacity is optimized for court essentials. You can comfortably fit your paddle, a few pickleballs, a water bottle, and small personal items like your phone and keys.
Yes, the strap is fully adjustable and designed for ergonomic carry. Because the bag weighs only 1.25 pounds, it remains lightweight and manageable even when fully loaded.
The DILLY bag is machine washable, making it easy to remove court dust or grass stains. We recommend air drying to maintain the integrity of the 1000D Cordura fabric.
The bag features foam-padded panels throughout, providing a protective buffer for your paddle and accessories against minor bumps and drops.
The bag is constructed from 1000 Denier Cordura, which is inherently water-resistant. While it will keep your gear dry during light rain or damp conditions, it is not fully waterproof and should not be submerged.
