FAQ

Custom gym bags questions, answered.

Everything buyers ask before they order — minimums, timings, artwork and print options.

What is the minimum order?

Our minimum order is just 12 gym bags — one small run for a studio is a normal order — with volume tiers for member gifts, issued kit and retail.

How fast will my gym bags arrive?

Your free mockup lands within 24 hours and finished bags ship in about 2 weeks, with express turnaround available when a launch or a season start is fixed.

Why do gym bags start to smell?

Because damp kit goes in, the bag is zipped shut and left somewhere with no airflow, and an unlined fabric body holds the moisture in its weave. It is very rarely the fabric wearing out. A coated wipeable lining, a wet compartment that is genuinely separate, and mesh at opposite ends so air can move through the bag are what change the outcome.

What is the difference between a wet compartment and a wet pocket?

A wet compartment is separately lined in a coated fabric and seamed the full height of the divider, with its own vent so it can dry. A wet pocket is often the same unlined fabric as the body with a seam that stops short — so water runs into the main compartment, which is the thing it was sold to prevent. Open the bag and look at the seam.

Is a shoe compartment worth it?

Usually, and mostly for a reason people do not expect: it keeps abrasive grit out of the main compartment, which is what wears the inside of a bag out. It helps with odour only if it is vented. It also takes its volume out of the main compartment, so we quote the total capacity and the usable main capacity separately.

Does an antimicrobial lining fix the problem?

It helps and it is not a property of the bag for ever. Antimicrobial finishes are treatments with a service life; they wash and wear out, and they are not a substitute for a bag that can dry out. We will quote it where it earns its place and tell you plainly what it does not do.

Our bags are ventilated but still damp. Why?

Because the mesh is almost certainly all on one face. Air cannot move through a packed, zipped bag with a single opening — it needs somewhere to enter and somewhere to leave. Mesh at opposite ends of the bag changes the behaviour completely and adds very little to the unit cost.

Do you make duffel bags, backpacks or cooler bags?

No. Barrel duffels, weekenders and wheeled holdalls, backpacks and back-worn cinch bags, and insulated or cooler bags are different products built around different problems, and there are suppliers who do nothing else. Everything we make is a gym bag built around wet kit.
