Diamondback Tool Bag and Storage Review

Diamondback Storage

You may know Diamondback for its excellent tool belts, but have you seen Diamondback tool bags and storage solutions?


We got our hands on a wide range of what the product team has put together to see what our guys think of them. While you’re reading, keep in mind that Diamondback products are Made in the USA. This is a pretty broad overview, so be sure to visit Diamondback’s website to learn more.

Editor’s Note: Check out our best tool bag roundup to see our top picks.

First Impressions

There’s one thing that stood out with each of these products immediately—they’re much lighter than we expect from Diamondback’s competition. Lighter weight means less fatigue, and that’s something we’re always grateful for.

Then there’s the construction. Diamondback tool bags use 1000D nylon for the primary construction. It’s an abrasion-resistant material that typically only fails on us if the stitching is poor quality. Looking broadly over the bags we received, we expect these Diamondback products to stand up to years of daily jobsite use.
