13 Best Gym Bags For Men (Review) in 2019

Everest Gym Bag with Wet Pocket. It’s a medium size bag that’s surprisingly attractive and well-built for the price.

An all-around great bag that, while not large, is not exactly small either. You’ll be able to fit all your gear and then some inside this gym bag and still have room in the exterior pockets for extra socks, sweatbands, snacks or whatever.

The North Face Base Camp duffle bag has the most pleasing style of any of the gym bags on this list. It’s a box without being boxy, is roomy without looking unwieldy and it sports high quality materials all around. It’s as durable as it is attractive and as versatile as it is durable.

The North Face Base Camp duffle bag is that rare combination of style and functionality. It’s the Ferrari of gym bags without a doubt and will protect your belongings while burnishing your image. The bag feels rock solid without feeling hard or boxy and that’s a testament to the quality of materials. Without a doubt our favorite gym bag.

Mier takes a slightly different approach to gym bags that sees them reaching back and embracing the tall, tube-like structures of yesterday but with more insistence on structure.

We love the way this bag feels when you carry it like a backpack. We love the big open space. We love the end compartments that allow us to put the sweaty stuff aside. And we also love the fact that it can be stuffed into an overhead with no problem.

The second North Face bag in our list the Big Shot is another beauty. While the Big Shot is without a doubt one of the great gym bags it’s really a whole lot more than that as well.

The North Face makes some truly outstanding gym bags and this is a prime example. Beautiful lines meet beautiful balance meet high-quality materials and smart organization. You’re going to take this bag traveling with you so you might as well get used to the idea.

The BB (Bags and Backpacks) Light Foldable Duffle Bag makes our “Best Of” list based on the quality of its construction, its spaciousness and its portability.

The BB Light Foldable Duffle Bag lets you easily carry everything you need to the gym and doubles as a travel bag. The lines are clean and the memory foam shoulder pad makes carrying a breeze. Unlike some other gym bags the waterproof nylon fabric keeps your gear nice and dry in the rain.

The Team Speed Medium Size Duffle Bag is one of the best looking gym bags the company makes and is available in a range of colors.

The adidas “Team” Gym Bags are great looking bags that are attractively priced to fit into the often tight budgets teams are working with. They have a lot of space inside and 3 zippered pockets on the exterior to allow you easy access to your gear whether you’re on the practice field or the court.

The Grip Power Gym Bag sports a hybrid design that’s somewhere between a backpack and a classic duffle. It’s compact, but not small, and built to last.

This is not a huge bag but it’s big enough to carry everything the average gym-rat will need for their workout and it’s comfortable enough to carry all day without becoming a burden. The bag looks as tough as it is and we like the stripped down lines and lack of unnecessary strapping.

Adidas makes another appearance on our gym bags list with this small, extremely versatile duffle. It’s a gym bag that has at least 3 ways you can carry it about depending on circumstances.

This is a great bag for a woman who goes to the gym toting a minimum of equipment. It doesn’t scream “I work out!” like some gym bags. It says “Going to the gym”. The lack of pockets is a curious thing. However by leaving them out they’ve maximized the interior space.

Where the Adidas Diablo Small bag is quietly effective the Grip Power Pads duffle is meant for those who take their gym bags seriously. It’s a big bag with lots of space and plenty of pockets.

We would love to see these gym bags with 50% of the branding removed. They would be epic. That said from a functional standpoint this bag should fulfill the needs of even the most gear-crazed gym-rat. It’s easy to carry, holds a ton of stuff and maintains its profile even when half full.

If what you want is a large gym bag with some structure that will stand up to the elements and whatever else you dish out the Nike Brasilia 6 duffle Bag is the bag for you.

This bag is big enough to handle anything you’ve got but still fairly easy to tote around even when it’s full. The build quality is right up there, the zippers are strong and work without issue. The ventilated pocket allows you to air out those nasty gym shorts. Another of Nike’s excellent gym bags.

The Adidas Defender II is a classic looking gym bag with plenty of interior space, 3 large pockets and a padded base that stands its ground when you take it outdoors.

If you’re looking for simple, durable gym bags at an affordable price Adidas has them. This bag doesn’t win a lot of points as far as aesthetics go but it provides plenty of space for all your gear and keeps that gear safe and secure against the ravages of the environment.

The smaller cousin to the Nike Brasilia 6 this gym bag is likely more appropriate for a lot of people who, if they bought the full size Brasilia 6, would be walking around with a half-empty gym bags.

As mentioned this is a streamlined version of the full size Brasilia 6. So if you love what those gym bags have to offer but don’t need all the space this bag is the answer. It’s a great bag that is well-built from the 600D polyester to the double stitching and Velcro wrap around the carry handles.

The second Team Speed bag from Adidas on our list exhibits all the quality traits you expect in Adidas gym bags for less than the price of a decent sweatshirt.

This small version of the company’s Team Speed gym bags is a great size for the dedicated fitness buff. It’s also stylish, water resistant, easy to carry and light. It might be a bit larger than you think it’s going to be so be aware.
