I plan to go diving, will the bags withstand 140 feet depth in water?

Yes, the bags will withstand that depth - but it's soft, so the real question is whether the thing in the bag will survive that depth, right?
24548
WHAT! why would you do that and noooo i would not trust these bags get a nike one or REI or something north face

Yes, it will work for something like a wallet. Its essentially a really really nice ziplock bag so don't try to take your cell phone or anything else that can't take the pressure that deep.

The bags do not come water proof. I was able to "waterproof" them using a 3M waterproofing spray. I say "waterproof" because they certainly will never be fully waterproof (dunked under water). They are a tiny bit water resistant but in a heavy rain they will collect water. If you give them a spray with that 3M stuff you will be good for a while. In edition to spraying them I also used tent seam sealer. I still wouldn't rely on them to be left out in the rain if there were electronics in them.

We used 3 of these bags on a raft trip for moose in Alaska in September. We did not submerge them, but did find they take on water thru the vent hole in the bottom if you stack them or put any weight on them when sitting in water.

Any hard case back is ok for diving.If you have the touch screen back(for the LCD screen) it limits you to a little less than 10 ft. However this kit comes with the hard case back for the LCD screen as well so you should definitely be good to around 100 ft. Also if your going to be using it for diving I recommend you get the red lens clip on cover, it's like 7 bucks and you get much better imaging.

I have mine at 4 feet.. it is strong.at that depth. I really have no way to test it.. Just a guess says it would, but durability at that constant pressure would be my question. Don if you have a way for me to test i'd be glad to.. cant think of a way ..

these are well made, and have a O-ring to keep out rain and weather moisture, but I would not recommend them for underwater, submerged use. good luck

I don't know. I use it for windsurfing, so I am never more than six feet under, but mine has survived high-speed impact with no problems. i expect that it could go pretty deep.

Peter, as long as the bag is intended for an 8 foot board, it should be okay. I would contact the guys at Curve, and ask them first, if you are feeling uncertain about this though. Contact the seller here on Amazon or Curve also has a web site. The company is run by surfers, not suits, so feel comfortable asking them real surfer questions! I own two of their bags and am happy with 'em both.

Please elaborate. What are your test parameters? Are you planning to test under water?

I use the standard housing to dive with. I had it around 140ft with no problems. The red filter is a must. I did not use the macro lense much though.

The at gold is waterproof to ten feet of water however I would not go scuba diving with the at gold. Have fun and happy hunting

My husband has swam over 20 miles in the ocean with no issues. He stores on a mesh bag between uses. He also swims in chlorinated pools and lakes about 2 miles a week .

I'm pretty sure it would. And towels probably too. We haven't actually used it for snorkeling/diving, but as a vacation/swimming bag. We've been able to put 6 towels, 4 changes of clothes, camera gear and had room to put more in there. Bag has waist and chest straps to help shoulder a heavy load. I'm super impressed with this bag it's heavy duty and made for saltwater.

I don't think these were designed for underwater exploration I think they're more just saying they're waterproof for your vehicle but it wouldn't hurt to try

You might want to buy the MPKAS3 which includes both the casing and the depth door. It's what I dive with and goes to 200ft (60m) or somesuch. I've personally traken it down to 100 feet (30m).

I don't believe they would be comfortable in bare feet as the holes are rather large, and the rubber is somewhat firm underfoot. As for submersion for any extended period of time, I do not know. This is a very durable product for garage use as I have used mine for a few years with no signs of deterioration.

That depends uppn what you mean by the question. I would not use them for taking pictures under water. I would use one to protect a camera from rain and salt spray. Camera bags for underwater photography have become more affordable so I would not risk using a Lok Sak. Good product, wrong application.
