NEX Underwater Products Leatherback DIR BCD Harness

NEX Underwater Products DIR BCD Harness

Strip Away the Extras. Keep What Matters.

For divers who believe the best equipment is often the simplest, the NEX Underwater Products DIR BCD Harness delivers a clean, streamlined foundation for your backplate-and-wing setup.

This is the minimalist alternative to NEX's comfort-focused Original Harness—built for divers who prefer simplicity, straightforward function and a harness that doesn't add more than it needs to.

No unnecessary bulk. No overcomplicated design.

Just a purpose-driven harness ready to become part of your BPW system.

Simplicity Is the Point

DIR-style equipment follows a straightforward philosophy: keep the configuration clean, functional and streamlined.

While NEX's Original Harness puts a greater emphasis on padding, comfort and convenience, the DIR Harness takes the opposite approach.

It strips the harness concept back to the essentials, making it an attractive choice for experienced recreational divers, technical divers and anyone who simply prefers a minimalist BPW configuration.

Sometimes adding more isn't an upgrade.

Sometimes removing what you don't need is.

A Harness You Build Around Your Diving

The NEX DIR BCD Harness gives you the harness component you need to build or update your own BPW configuration.

That makes it ideal for divers who don't want to purchase an entire predetermined BC system just to get the harness they want.

Already have a backplate?

Already know which wing you want?

Building your BPW one component at a time?

Start with the harness and build the rest your way.

DIR or Original? Choose What Matters to You.

NEX offers two harness approaches because not every diver wants the same thing.

Choose the NEX Original Harness when you're looking for a more comfort-oriented configuration with padding and easier entry and exit.

Choose the NEX DIR BCD Harness when your priorities are simplicity, streamlining and a minimalist approach.

The DIR isn't simply the less expensive version of the Original.

It's designed around a different philosophy.
