BAGS.

Any good brands of bags to put my gear in? Only have fins, mask, snorkel and boots at the moments. I hope to get a wetsuit soon. What do you guys recommend?

Akona makes excellent gear, and gives good customer service. I have two of their bags.

Use the search button. This question has been asked over and over.

Go with a non descript duffle bag. It's easier to handle on a boat and doesn't say "This bag has expensive dive gear in it, steal me."

I like the Akona also.
Their mesh backpack is a great boat bag.
The shoulder straps are heavy duty and well padded
and it has the much needed side zipper.

I like Akona too - got a roller suitcase of theirs while on holiday in the Caribbean, with a neat pocket containing a plain black cover to throw over it to hide the 'dive gear, steal me'ness of it - and have since regretted not getting a (non-mesh) backpack too. But I haven't found a stockist in the UK... anyone know one?

Not to hijack the thread, but...

I've been thinking about getting the Stahlsac roller duffel which seems like a sweet little thang (well, a sweet, very big thang, actualy. Being 6'6" my gear + clothes take up some serious cubic footage) for travel. Is there some reason I should stop this consideration?

If you're gonna go with the discrete duffle bag, I might consider getting another padded bag for your regs as well...
Not that I have one for my regs yet but I usually wrap my 2-piece wetsuit around them in the meantime...

You can't go wrong with Akona.
If you do decide to get something else make sure you get one with back pack type straps. Believe me on this.
