With the holiday season coming up, and lots of good friends and good food to be had, you may need to double down on your workouts soon to get back into shape. It may never be a better time to consider getting yourself a new, high-quality men’s gym bag with shoe compartment to replace that old shabby duffle bag. But why should you invest in a high-quality gym bag?
Properly Hold Everything You Need For Your Workout Regimen
One of the biggest downsides to the old standard duffle bag is the lack of compartmentalization. You may get a lot of space, but it is often all in one compartment, with maybe a couple outside pockets for small things. This may be fine for quick packing, but it also means that, once you are done with your workout regimen, you have to place your sweaty laundry back into the only large compartment there is, and you may have other street clothing, electronics, and accessories in there. You don’t want the stink to travel, so a high-quality gym bag with shoe compartment means you get separate compartments for your laundry, and a dedicated one for your shoes (as almost everybody’s shoes stink some, especially after a sweaty workout.)
With the right gym bag with shoe compartment, you also get dedicated compartments for a lot of different things in order to protect them from your clothing, or to give quick access to specific gear. One or two bottle holders on the outside of the bag is ideal: you get one for water, and one for your pre-workout or post-workout protein drinks. Then there’s also the dedicated padded compartment inside to store your valuable electronics, like laptop, ebook reader, or cell phone, protecting them from jostling and impacts.
High-Quality Materials to Last
When looking to replace your old gym bag, if you are looking for a gym bag with shoe compartment that is going to last, then you want to ensure it has the best high-quality materials that you can get, and craftsmanship to match. Top-grade ballistic nylon is a great material for the exterior of a gym bag, as it can handle the harsh environments you may be taking it through: the gym, the car trunk, the subway, workplace, hiking trail, etc. Having straps that are made with extra padding allows you to carry the gym bag for long distances, in case you use public transit or head off on one of those yoga retreats in nature. The interior of your gym bag should be easy to maintain, a light-weight material that can be wiped clean easily, and a fabric that won’t absorb odors so that it lasts much longer.
Multi-Functional Gym Bags
Consider what kind of environment and situations in which you see yourself using your gym bag with shoe compartment before deciding on the design. Is your gym bag only going to be used for going from home to the gym and back again? Or are you going to be wanting to take it to work as well for workout sessions during lunch or on the way back home from work? Do you want a gym bag you can take out into nature for hikes or yoga retreats? Finally, do you want a gym bag that can double as a travel bag for weekend adventures, or work trips?
