Top Quality Scuba Diving
Gear Made in the USA
By Matt Mullins – Last updated: June 22, 2024
Looking for what diving equipment is made in the USA? Then you’ve come to the right place. Here, I’ve researched and compiled an unbiased alphabetical guide to all of the American made Scuba manufacturers I could find. I love Scuba diving and like to reward ethical local manufacturing whenever possible. I encourage you to support your local dive shop first, but if you will be ordering online anyways then please help support us through our links. *I took the above photo while liveaboard diving in Komodo National Park.
Note, I emphasize which products from the following companies are built in the USA. Appearing on this list does not mean that all of their products are made in the USA.
