Sun Mountain, one of the industry's more familiar names in golf bags, is introducing the new H2NO bag in carry bag and cart bag versions with expanded pocket space and more color options. Sun Mountain said the H2NO is constructed from waterproof materials and features seam-sealed pockets for additional waterproof protection.
 
The H2NO carries a suggested retail price of $239 for the stand bag and $279 for the cart bag.
 
The waterproof pockets and rain hood on the H2NO, according to Sun Mountain, feature the same waterproof construction as Sun Mountain’s line of rainwear, including waterproof fabric, taped seams, and YKK® waterproof zippers. Additionally, the company said that when used with the matching rain hood, the H2NO offers waterproof protection for the entire bag including the clubs.
 
Built on the same frame as its Superlight 3.5 bag, Sun Mountain said the the H2NO carry bag features a built-in in top collar handle, top-molded stand attachment for stability, and a patented Roller-Bottom stand mechanism for easy leg activation. Additionally, H2NO features ample storage space with six pockets to include a full-length clothing pocket, water bottle pouch and velour-lined valuables pocket.
 
Sun Mountain said the new built-in top collar handle is part of the H2NO carry bag’s integrated one-piece top that combines the top cuff, the built-in collar handle, and the upper stand bracket. This six-way top with full-length dividers, according to the company, offers a higher strap attachment point that effectively moves the center of gravity of the bag resulting in a more balanced bag for easier carrying.
 
The H2NO stand bag also features Sun Mountain’s E-Z Fi Strap System for carrying with dual strap ease.
 
The H2NO cart bag features a 14-inch, 14-way top for the ease of individual club dividers, seven pockets including two full-length clothing pockets, multiple accessory pockets, a velour-lined valuables pocket, and a beverage pocket all front facing for easy access when the bag is on the cart.
