5 Best Chalk Bags (Review) In 2020

The first chalk bag we’ve chosen is the DMM Edge Chalk Bucket. It was a difficult decision to put this as our Best Choice because it could have easily been a Premium Product. It is the most expensive climbing chalk bucket on this list, but we think that spending that extra bit of money is well worth it, even if you’re just getting into climbing. The first thing that will strike you about this bag is the quality of the product. Everything from the material and stitching to the zips feels like they’ve spared no expense. It’s definitely built to endure some hardcore climbing.

DMM is a Welsh company that has been making climbing equipment for over 30 years. They’re well-known in the industry for making some top-quality products. This bag has its logo with the famous Welsh dragon and their company motto: ‘Climb now, work later’. And this bag will definitely make you want to start climbing right away

The Sukoa Chalk Bag is definitely one of our favorite products on this list. It’s actually the cheapest as well, but not by much at all. The reason we’ve chosen it as our Best Value product is that it’s one of the most practical multi-purpose climbing bags out there. On the product description, Sukoa makes it pretty clear that you can use this bag for all sorts of things, not just climbing. It’s also suitable for weightlifting, bouldering, gymnastics, and CrossFit. And they’re just the sports that might require you to chalk up your hands. It can be separately used as a tactical ammo pouch for hunters, a DIY pouch for your nuts and bolts, or a little bag for taking out on bike rides.  So, it’s a pretty versatile little bag.

The reason it’s useful in so many different situations is that it has two large zippered pockets. There’s a full-length pocket that can accommodate a large smartphone (like the iPhone 7 or Galaxy S8) and a smaller pocket of your keys and cards. On top of that, the main compartment, which is designed to hold your chalk, can also be used as a storage pouch. It’s not as big as the compartment on the DMM chalk bag, but there’s still enough space, even for people with shovel hands. Plus, it has an adjustable drawcord closure, which pulls tight enough to stop any chalk from spilling from the bag.

Our third product in this list is the GGBuy Chalk Bag. It’s another budget option and was a strong contender to be our Best Value product. It’s less than a dollar more expensive than the Sukoa Chalk Bag, but other than that it’s pretty hard to decide between the two. The company that makes this bag is pretty much unknown. They don’t seem to have a website and just make cheap sportswear products for Amazon. However, in spite of that, the quality of this bag is really impressive.

It’s made from 600D Oxford polyester, which is one of the most commonly used materials for making camping equipment, backpacks, and other hardwearing items. The reason it’s so popular is that it’s cheap and tough. This makes this bouldering chalk bag really durable, as well as pretty much waterproof. The company claims that it’s tested rigorously to ensure that it will last for years, but they don’t offer any proof of this testing, so it’s hard to back up.

The Simhoa Rock Climbing Chalk Bag is one of our favorite chalk bags because of its simplicity. It doesn’t have a whole load of features, but it looks great and still manages to retain its functionality. You can tell it was designed specifically to hold your chalk, whether you’re climbing or weight lifting, which is a big reason why we like it so much. Unlike the other bags that are trying to be multifunctional, this bag just focuses on getting the one job right.

One of the main features of this bag is the prism shape. The bottom of the bag is wider than the top, which gives it a low center of gravity and stops it from tipping over, even when there’s a strong wind against it. This and the fact that the bottom is hardened makes it one of the sturdiest chalk bags around. The top is still wide enough to get your hand in easily and it’s secured with a tight drawstring closure. Again, you can tell that it’s designed for climbers, because it’s super easy to operate with one hand.

The last chalk bucket for climbing on our list is the Black Diamond Mojo Zip Chalk Bag. We’ve selected it to be our Premium Product on this list for two main reasons. Firstly, the quality of the bag is amazing. The materials used are extremely durable and waterproof, to keep your chalk perfectly dry. You can often tell the quality of a product like this by looking at the stitching around the bag – every stitch is perfectly symmetrical and there are no loose ends. This gives us faith that this could be your chalk bag for years to come. Inside the bag, it has a fleece-lined interior, which provides the perfect base for the chalk to sit on. Plus, the bottom of the chalk bucket is made from TPU abrasion-resistant materials. That gives the whole a product a really solid, bottom heavy feel.

The second reason we like it so much is the way it looks. Out of all the chalk bags on this list, this is the best looking. With the Black Diamond logo, two-tone color scheme, and choice of four different colors, it will really stand out when you’re climbing or weightlifting.
