In modern society, no man can do without a bag, but each model must correspond to the situation. And it often happens that ordinary bags are simply not suitable for any informal situation, but in this case you should pay attention to the sports model.
Features and benefits
Of course, sports bags have many features and advantages, proving every day that they are a necessity rather than an accessory. First of all, the fact is that a sports bag has nothing to do with the creation of a complete image, but is exclusively a functional detail.
The feature of sports bags lies in the fact that they are made of durable, but still soft material, so an empty bag can be easily turned and stored. Thanks to this feature, the product does not take up much space.
The features include various additions of standard sports bags, in the form of hidden pockets, additional compartments, built-in carrying mechanisms and other functional ideas.
Among the advantages it is impossible not to note the ease of models, which is due to the absence of rigid walls. This is a definite plus, since sports models filled with things will be quite heavy without it.
In addition, sports bags are suitable not only for sports equipment, but also for many other types of activities where the usual classic model will not find any use for itself. Whether it is relocation, fees for a hike, a trip to the country or in a holiday home - this is the best option for storing and transporting personal belongings.
Types and models
Sports models are very practical and convenient, and even if they do not find use in everyday life, they will surely fit for a weekend or for leisure activities. Let us consider in more detail the most common models and features of their internal space.
Women's sports bags are distinguished by a more sophisticated design, characteristic of products oriented towards the fair sex, as well as corresponding colors and stylish prints.
Kids, like adults, attend sports clubs and clubs, so they also need sports bags. The children's model for a girl can be decorated with stripes and prints in the form of butterflies, hearts, fairy fairies or simple curls.
Fitness
Sports bags for fitness have a lot of advantages and have many very functional add-ons, without which they simply lose their practicality. In addition, such a bag should be very roomy so that sports equipment and a towel can easily enter there.
A very practical sports bag with a compartment for shoes. As a rule, it is located at the bottom of the product, representing a kind of pocket with a zipper fastener. If the compartment is stained, the pocket can always be turned inside out and easily cleaned.
When choosing a sports bag for fitness, you should pay particular attention to models over the shoulder, since this position of the strap provides the most comfortable carrying bag. The load is distributed evenly, without causing damage to the spine and back muscles.
If you want to ease the load on your hands or just leave them free, you can choose a stylish sports backpack with wide straps that will help distribute the load across the back, protecting it as much as possible from excessive fatigue.
Sports models for tourism
Bags for the belt, although very small, are still quite roomy and indispensable for traveling. You can always keep all the necessary things and documents with you, putting them in this bag, and a special pocket will allow you to save money.
For hiking and picnics, a sports cooler bag will become an indispensable thing, allowing you to keep food and drinks fresh and cool for longer. The bag has dense walls with interior decoration of a special material, and a special cooling element.
Supporters of a healthy lifestyle often strive to adhere to proper nutrition, but in the hectic everyday life it is not always possible. In order not to eat any harmful products, nutritionists advise to take food with them, and for the convenience of storing and carrying it, you should purchase a special sports bag for containers of food.
Of course, each model has an internal pocket for the phone, but what if you only need to take it with you, but there are no pockets? For such cases, there is a special small bag with extra pockets for money. Convenient and practical!
Among the sports products there are those that are perfect for traveling for a short time. For example, the banana model, which is a cylindrical oblong model, is rather compact, but practical and roomy.
The sports model of a transformer does not have any remarkable external features, but is very functional due to only one detail: if necessary, you can take wide straps from a special pocket, turning the bag into a backpack.
In addition, for everyday use there are quite attractive semi-sports products. Models of such a plan can be used even for work, if there is no need to comply with the dress code, but there is a need to carry with them a large number of personal belongings.
the cloth
Undoubtedly, it is the material involved in the manufacture, to a greater extent affects the practicality of the product. It is necessary that exceptionally durable and reliable fabrics are used for tailoring sports models in order to prevent rapid wear.
Leather version will last for quite a long time, especially if it is made from natural material, and not from a fake. Genuine leather is well cleaned, in case of pollution, it is not deformed and does not stretch, therefore the product will retain its original appearance for a long time.
HOften, dense membrane fabric is used to make sports models. It is very dense, so it does not tear, but these are not all the properties of this material. The fact is that under the influence of a special impregnation material becomes waterproof, and the contents of the bag will be protected even during the strongest rain.
The jeans variety is in no way inferior in strength to the two models described above, but it still has some drawbacks. The fact is that the material, similar to denim, rather quickly gets dirty, but in order to clean even the smallest stain you have to wash the entire bag.
Sports models are very rarely made of any thin material, as well as leatherette or patent leather, because these fabrics fail quite quickly and do not withstand heavy loads at all.
Sports models hardly need any decorations, but light, unobtrusive decor still takes place. As a decor, a dense mesh fabric is used, from which decorative inserts are made or external pockets intended for a water bottle.
Size and shape
The shape of the bag is directly reflected in its internal space and, if it comes to a sports model, it should be as spacious as possible, but at the same time as compact as possible. Let us consider in more detail what forms of sports bags are most relevant.
A large bag is good in terms of spaciousness and is used most often for travel. For sports training, such a model is hardly suitable, since it will be too voluminous, which will cause certain inconveniences. For fitness fit bag medium size.
Small sports bags are good for storing small, but the most necessary and important things. By purchasing such a model, you can no longer worry about the safety of the phone, money and documents.
As for the shape - the most unusual is the round bag. It is not particularly practical, because made of soft material, the round bag is deformed from the excess of things inside it. Such a model is good only if it is made in the semi-sports style and has rigid walls.
The most relevant forms of bags are cylinders, rectangles and oblong semi-oval shapes. It is their deformation that is least noticeable, so you can fill the product to the top, without worrying about the fact that its appearance will suffer.
Colour
Color variations of sports-type products are very diverse, they are not limited to a couple of dark shades, and therefore attract a lot of attention. Sometimes, the mood and character of a person is set precisely with the help of shades of accessories chosen by him.
The pink model, in various shades, from delicate light pink to bright fuchsia, will be an excellent choice for both young girls and adult women. But with light tones it is worth being careful, as they are pretty branded.
Shades of blue are truly fascinating, which is not surprising, because it is an incredibly deep and multifaceted shade. Light blue and heavenly tone will create a mood of lightness and weightlessness, and dark blue will look more restrained.
Green is also popular, but its bright colors are not liked by everyone. A bag of dark green and emerald colors will look very nice, while the shade of fresh grass can sometimes even cause slight irritation.
Of course, the black shade is incredibly popular and relevant at all times, because it looks great always and everywhere and is incredibly well combined with things of other shades. A black sports bag is probably considered the most practical and durable.
The white sports model is not practical at all. It gets dirty very quickly and sometimes it is quite difficult to wash off, so supporters of an active lifestyle and sports style try to avoid such a model. But the semi-sports models, suitable for everyday life, look very good.
Brown shades are most often used in the manufacture of leather models, especially if there is a decor in the form of embossing or a reptile skin effect. Such models look very impressive and very expensive, even if they actually have a very small price.
In addition to monochrome products, multi-colored bags consisting of fabric inserts of different colors have a rather wide distribution. Models of such a plan look much more interesting than monochrome ones, and also fit much better into any image.
The choice of sports bag decoration is very limited, of all the possible relevance are only different prints and inscriptions. This may be an image on any sports theme, brand logo or just camouflage colors, common among tourist models.
Brands
It would seem that the choice of sports bags should be simple, but this is not quite true, since the abundance of modern sports brands offers many models of bags suitable for every day and for a special occasion.It is worth paying attention to the most popular ones.
The Reebok brand has existed on the world fashion market for many years and never ceases to amaze customers with more and more new and no less high-quality goods. Among the models you can find both volumetric and small versions, both in the fully sporting and in the approximate to the classical style.
Quite a popular brand Dakine is an amazing collection of bags with a folding top, fastened with a zipper. This model is convenient because you can easily get full access to the contents of the bag. In addition, there are a lot of backpacks and banana bags in the collections.
Bags from the Decathlon brand are probably the most popular. This company is world famous as a manufacturer of a huge number of high-quality cylindrical bags, transformers and backpacks on wheels.
Asics is the largest manufacturer of large bags. The bulk is made up of large models, roomy, but somewhat cumbersome and bulky. But still there are several sports options for fitness and in the form of backpacks.
In the collections of another sports brand Puma you can find quite a lot of models from genuine leather, but you should know that the cost of the product is appropriate. In addition, as a decor, a print with the name of the brand and its logo — a graceful animal in a jump — was painted on the surface of the bags.
Tommy Hilfiger is not a sports brand, but presents informal clothing and accessories suitable for everyday use. But in the collections, nevertheless, there are several variants of models of bananas with the name of the brand in the form of a print.
The Hama brand produces a huge number of children's models of sports bags. Neat and compact in appearance, they are quite roomy inside, and wonderful prints in the form of cartoon characters and animals will surely delight the baby.
Venum bags are preferred by professional athletes and boxers because of their appearance. The fact is that most models have a rather aggressive design, the center of which is a large inscription with the name of the company.
How to choose?
As in any other business, in the choice of sports bags it is impossible to let everything go to chance, in order to prevent the acquisition of an unnecessary, inappropriate and irrelevant model. But what should we pay special attention to when purchasing such a product?
- First of all, it is worth considering the size, which should correspond to the nature of the situation for which the product is being purchased. You should not buy a huge model to visit the gym, but it will not work and is too small. But for the transport of a large number of things - impressive size will be just right.
- The colors of a sports product do not necessarily have to match the color scheme of all other clothes. As already mentioned, the sports bag is a completely independent product, not related to the category of accessories, so you can choose its colors based on personal preferences.
- The same applies to the materials from which the bag is made. Of course, many of them have a corresponding cost, and the choice is often connected with this, but you shouldn’t save on quality, it’s better to buy a product once that will last for many years.
- And, of course, it is not necessary to leave aside its contents when choosing such a product. If you need additional pockets and compartments for shoes, you should choose a product with the appropriate functions, and if you need the simplest model - pay attention to products with minimal additions.
How much is?
As for the cost of sports-style products, everything is quite simple here - the price depends on the model, its quality and the materials from which it is made. A brand manufacturer plays a significant role, since quite often we overpay only for a well-known label.
The cost of branded bags made of genuine leather varies in the range of 30 000 rubles, but you can find more budget options and a much less well-known name.
Simple bags, designed for the mass consumer, are quite affordable and have a price tag in the range of 1,000–4,000 rubles.
