Comfort Rolled Neoprene Neck Collar
For ultimate comfort.

Fadeless 1600 Denier Ballistic Nylon Construction
Exterior abrasion points of the Islander are covered in our new "Fadeless" 1600-denier ballistic nylon - tough stuff that will hold up to years of extreme diving and keep that "new look" longer.

Caribiner Clips
Includes 2 caribiner clips with 16 attachment points for easy, one-handed accessory attachment.

Optional Integrated Retractor System
Built-in retractor attachment point - perfect for streamlining gauges, lights and other essentials.

Spinner Knife Mounting Grommets
Located on both the left and right pockets, a pair of stainless steel grommets keep our SPINNER BC KNIFE out of the way but just where you want it.

Patented Depth-Compensating Adjustable Cummerbund
Oceanic's patented depth compensating cummerbund is manufactured from a unique woven elastic material that eliminates the need to readjust as your suit compresses at depth. Oceanic's cummerbund offers up to 8" of adjustment to fit a wide range of sizes. For additional customization, the cummerbund may be easily changed with another size.

Interior Plush Lining, Padded Backpack and Additional Lumbar Support
Extra heavy duty padding provides comfort both above and below the surface without having to sacrifice the stability of a hard backpack. Plush lining at all contact points for comfort - a big plus on warm water dives.

Low-Profile Hard Backpack with Carry Handle and Cylinder Positioning Strap
Comforts that you shouldn't have to live without!

Large Zippered Pockets
Zippered so they're easy to get into. Enough room to store your light, extra Shadow Mask, Pocket Snorkel, and more!

Optional Air XS 2 Alternate Inflator
The new AIR XS combines the reliability, performance and durability of the SlimLine OCTOPUS and ALLIANCE INFLATOR into one very low profile, streamlined package. The regulator/inflator combination is as small as many BC inflators alone, with breathing performance superior to many stand-alone octopus regulators.

The AIR XS can be added to any existing Oceanic BC or may be purchased already installed on a new Oceanic BC for additional savings.

Colors
The Islander is available in Black/Titanium or Black/Blue/Neon Yellow.
