I was impressed how much better it was than every other case I’ve tried over the years. I didn’t think there could be that much of a noticeable difference. I’ve already been adding more to my setup.
Previously tried a pelican carry on, cheap plastic and didn't like the overall construction. The nanuk 935, however, is pretty awesome. Everything feels solid.
These are by far the best made cases on the market. The handles and lid hinge are very sturdy. The extended handed has a thumb release for one hand operation, and the double action latches will not open accidentally. WAY BETTER than the well known bird brand.
NANUK 935
Overview

If you were designing the perfect waterproof, protective case that can go anywhere and do anything we bet that you would start with the NANUK 935.
Three soft-grip handles make this wheeled case one of the most convenient on the market, but that’s only the beginning. Polyurethane wheels withstand rough terrain while the one-handed retractable handle makes it easy to use and versatile. No matter where you’re headed, you’re guaranteed a smooth and hassle-free trip.

Built to organize, protect, carry and survive tough conditions, the NANUK 935 waterproof hard case will take the abuse so your gear doesn’t.
It’s impenetrable and indestructible with a lightweight, tough NK-7 resin shell and its PowerClaw superior latching system gives you unmatched peace of mind. With NANUK’s exclusive locking and latching system, your case stays shut and secured until you are ready to open it.

Measuring 22x14x9” it can store a whole lot of essential gear and still be carried on most airlines.
The NANUK 935 protective case is convenient even when full of equipment and weighed down. Simply press the button and the retractable handle extends to your choice of two positions and the NANUK 935 is ready to be wheeled to your destination with your photo gear, video gear, audio gear, medical equipment, industrial equipment, outdoor gear, personal effects and much more safely inside.

The 935’s two handles feature stainless steel hardware and cleverly retract to keep the handles out of harm’s way when traveling or during shipping.
This transport case is also equipped with an automatic pressure release valve and an integrated bezel system to accommodate custom panels without needing to drill holes so the case stays watertight.

This MIL-Spec injection molded case is backed by a lifetime warranty. Inside, products can be secured with cubed foam, custom foam, padded dividers or the case can be purchased empty.


Why Choose The NANUK 935?

Keep your case from sealing shut. Automatically.
Automatic Pressure Release Valve
Changes in altitude, temperature, humidity and geographic location create a “vacuum lock” which can effectively seal a case shut. NANUK's integrated auto-pressure valve equalizes this atmospheric pressure difference. Using state-of-the-art technology, the micro vent allows air to pass through while preventing water from entering.

Stand out with a unique design and color selection.
Design & Colors
Rounded corners and chamfered edges merge with strong character lines to deliver a design that is as sleek and modern as it is tough and reliable. Be it for aesthetic preference or more practical purposes, color choice is an important feature for many NANUK users - choose from up to nine colors depending on the case.

High-Impact Protection. A fraction of the weight.
Indestructible & Lightweight NK-7 Resin
Impact-resistant, lightweight, and armed with an NK-7 resin body, this NANUK case is designed with rounded corners, thick, strong walls, and oversized details. No matter what nature throws its way, NANUK is built to survive. This NANUK is shock-absorbent to prevent damage to the case and, more importantly, to the valuable contents.

Go where no case has gone before.
IP67 Waterproof & Dustproof
NANUK protective cases were primarily designed for front line protection, search and rescue missions, first responders, military, industrial, marine and diving uses. The professionals that rely on NANUK cases require a reliable, waterproof solution which resists deformation and fatigue. NANUK ensures a long-lasting, watertight seal - nothing gets in – nothing!

Close with confidence. Open with ease.
PowerClaw Superior Latching System
Ensuring that your smaller gear stays well protected from the elements, this NANUK case's patented PowerClaw latching system uses compressive force and triple action to clamp your case tight. Integrated slide locks offer added security, preventing your case from opening during transport or if it’s dropped. The super tough nylon construction and stainless-steel hardware ensure that your important items stay safe in your NANUK waterproof case no matter where your journey takes you.

Smooth & Silent rolling on any surface
Polyurethane Wheels
Smooth mobility is a major advantage, especially when transporting cumbersome equipment. This NANUK case features polycarbonate wheels molded with polyurethane. Similar to what you’d find on rollerblades, these wheels, along with their sealed stainless steel bearings, ensure a quiet, effortless trip over a multitude of terrains and through lots of weather conditions.

A Fit for Smalls & Talls
2-Stage Retractable Handle
Hassle-free transport comes courtesy of NANUK's two-stage retractable handle. Posture-friendly, the handle can be adjusted to two different heights and offers easy, one-handed open and close with its quick-release button.

Protect & Carry with Confidence
Reinforced Metal Padlock eyelets
NANUK comes loaded with innovative features. All models have integrate reinforced metal padlock eyelets that let you lock down your gear so you can carry and protect your valuables with confidence.

How does the PowerClaw latch work and is it secure?
NANUK’s PowerClaw system uses compressive force to clamp the case shut with an integrated slide lock to prevent accidental opening. Hardware is high‑strength nylon and stainless steel.
What features make the NANUK 935 easy to transport?
The 935 comes with polyurethane roller wheels, three soft‑grip handles, and a two‑stage retractable handle. Wheels roll quiet and smooth even over rough terrain.
How much does it weigh and how much gear can I fit inside?
Empty weight is about 11.6 lb (5.2 kg). With 28.5 L capacity, it fits multiple DSLR/mirrorless bodies, 3–4 lenses, accessories, plus room for cables, filters or small drones—some users even use it as a mobile workstation.
What interior organization options are available?
Options include cubed foam, custom foam inserts, or padded dividers, plus an optional lid organizer with zip pockets. These help secure varied equipment and adapt as gear changes.
How does the NANUK 935 compare to a Pelican 1510 or 1535 air?
The NANUK 935 is equipped with polyurethane wheels designed for smooth, quiet rolling and improved stability on uneven surfaces. The wheel and handle system is engineered for frequent travel and transport in demanding environments.
Is there a lifetime warranty or support?
