Prepare for Your Summer Body with Samsonite Sports Bags

Samsonite Insider·31 January 2024·0 comments

Are you gearing up for a summer filled with outdoor activities, fun and fitness? One essential element you might not have considered yet is the role of a reliable sports bag in your fitness journey. Samsonite sports bags, known for their durability and style, could be exactly what you need for your upcoming adventures.

But, how do you select the perfect companion for your sporting experiences? Let’s dive into the world of sports bags and discover how to make your summer activities both fun and organised.

How Big Should a Sports Bag Be?

Before jumping into the vast sea of sports gym bags, ask yourself, “What are my specific needs?” It makes sense that the size of your bag should reflect the type of activities you’re planning. 

If you’re a swimmer, for example, a small sports bag might suffice for your swimsuit and goggles. But if you’re into cricket or golf, you’ll need a larger bag to accommodate your equipment. Ideally, your sports bag should be large enough to hold all your gear yet compact enough for easy transport.

How Do I Choose a Sports Bag?

Picking the right sports bag isn’t just about size. It’s also a bit of a balancing act between function and style. 

  • Size and Capacity: Think about what you’ll be carrying. For light gym sessions, a small sports bag might suffice. But for sports that require more gear, like basketball or soccer, you’ll need a larger bag. Consider the volume in litres and the dimensions of the bag to ensure it fits your equipment and personal items and fits in your locker or car.
  • Material and Durability: A good sports bag should be made from high-quality, durable materials. Nylon and polyester are common due to their strength and lightweight nature. If you’re going to be in outdoor or rugged environments, look for bags with water-resistant or waterproof fabrics.
  • Compartments and Organisation: The best sports bag for you might have multiple compartments for easy organization. Separate sections for wet clothes, shoes, electronics, and valuables can keep your gear organised and accessible. Mesh pockets and dividers can also be helpful for quick access to smaller items.
  • Comfort and Carrying Options: Consider how you’ll be carrying your bag. Adjustable, padded shoulder straps are essential for comfort, especially if you’re carrying heavy gear. Some bags offer multiple carrying options, like handles or backpack-style straps, which can be beneficial for longer distances.
  • Style and Personal Preferences: While functionality is key, the style of the bag is also important. You’ll be more likely to use a bag that you like the look of. Additionally, consider factors like colour (for visibility or preference), brand (if brand loyalty is important to you), and any additional features like reflective elements for safety or TSA locks for travel security.

Samsonite has a variety of sports bags that meet different needs, and it’s worth considering what works best for you. Let’s take a look at a few options.
