Sports bag brands are divided by discipline. Club equipment manufacturers design for teams, while racquet specialists focus on long and fragile gear.
A brand of sport bags almost always comes from a specific sport, and this is reflected in its designs. Team sports manufacturers offer duffel bags with a compartment for balls. Racket specialists create long and temperature-regulated covers.
The originating sport explains the shape of the products. A football manufacturer thinks in terms of changing room volume, a tennis specialist considers frame length, and a gym brand focuses on lightness. Our sport bags cover these three approaches, and a single need rarely finds a solution across all three at once.
Sport bags from the same brand mainly differ in shoulder strap length and volume, but rarely in construction. What really changes from one brand to another is the treatment of the shoe compartment, which may be ventilated or simply insulated, and the durability of the bottom, which withstands the moisture of changing rooms.
Sport bags from the vintage collection reissue designs from the 80s and 90s, made of thick fabric with wide straps. They are worn in the city as well as at the gym. Check the lining: a faithful reissue on the outside may have a non-waterproof interior, which can be problematic with wet clothing.
