If you’re ready to hit the tunnel in style and get LeagueFitted, while carrying all your essential kicks, slides, and gear, today we’ve got you covered. We’re going to reveal our picks for the top basketball gym duffle bags.
These bags aren’t cheap though – with the lowest coming in at $39.99. But since they’re designed to last you years, it’s worth the investment. Especially if you find yourself constantly trying to keep track of water bottles, shoes, hoodies and the like. You can even use them when you travel (outside of basketball).
We’ve picked the bags our teammates have used, and targeted extra spacious and durable bags. We’re aiming a little more on the practical side than Jordan Clarkson. But we’ve still got a snazzy surprise for you at the end – check it out!
OK this bag is the OG for real. We’ve had this bag for over 5 years and it was still going strong. Just this year the strap finally started to rip a bit where it hits the bag. Anyhow, this duffle bag is spacious at 25″ L x 12″ W x 12″ H!
It has a super large interior space with separate exterior compartments for shoes and other gear. We’ve been able to fit two basketballs, a hoodie, and a bunch of other clothes in just the big zipper section! And the bottom of it is coated with a water-resistant barrier which is key for when you encounter rain or spilled water bottles.
It also has padded adjustable shoulder straps for moderately comfortable carrying. It comes in 8 different color ways so you can find one that fits your vibe, and helps it stand out from other bags around the court. Furthermore, its been rated a 4.8/5 by over 3,500 people. The only downside is the price at $42.
There are three possible reasons to go with this bag, rather than the Nike bag. First, if you like the Adidas brand better. Second if you want basically the largest possible duffle bag (this one comes in at 14.75″H x 29″W x 14.5″D). Or third if you want a lower price – as some colors of this bag start at just $39.99. Beyond that, the bags are pretty similar. This bag has a few extra external zippered pocket sections. Similarly to the Nike bag it’s got the crucial water-resistant base material to keep your stuff dry, and an adjustable carrying strap. Choose from 4 different color ways.
For those who don’t mind paying a premium for extra fly points, this is the bag for you. It retails for $72 and up, depending on which of the four colors you select. This bag is slightly less spacious than the others at 18 x 12.5 x 4 inches, and only has one long exterior zippered pocket. It’s still great for holding a ball, lots of clothes, and some equipment. And comes with the standard adjustable strap and handles for added convenience.
OK we couldn’t stop there because there’s one more find, also for the fashionovas. SLAM has a few college bags: Florida Gators, UConn Huskies, Michigan Wolverines, Kansas Jayhawks, Georgetown Hoyas, Memphis State Tigers, and Syracuse Orange. They’re made of a rugged heavy canvas exterior, which holds up to any kind of travel. Inside the premium liner keeps everything safe. Similar to the other bags, there’s an adjustable shoulder strap and the reinforced handles. This bag is a smaller 18 x 9 x 9 in size, and retails for $45.
