New Balance Men's Women's Unisex OPP Core Duffel Bag, Travel Gym Duffels, Medium, Arctic Grey

Great size, great quality

Lov my bag but very hard to find things inside it zip should of been longer

If initial impressions were all that counted then this bag would be two stars. Sure it is light, but there is no structure to it, just one pocket (on one end) and it feels flimsy. I started playing round with it though. I realised most people are just likely to throw a gym kit with shoes, a towel, and shower gear in to this so I tried that and it was fine. Also there was little to nothing to risk the bag, but then external items or a set of keys could and that is when I felt the material.I am not sure what this bag is made of, certainly not Ripstock at this price, however it does actually feel tougher and I think the textured finish is actually there for protection. I then did something silly. I took a knife to it. More accurately I grazed the point of a pen knife across the surface, with a little pressure behind it. Aside from a worrying grazing/scraping sound there was no damage. Now I do not suggest doing this and I also do not fancy trying again, but the knife will have had more chance of doing damage than a set of keys.Net result I think this bag is tougher than you would expect and so if you are ok with the lack of structure behind it this could be a good option for a light weight gym duffle bag.

This is a very poor quality ridiculously small bag from New Balance.The quoted dimensions of 50cm wide and 34cm tall are completely false the dimensions are actually 40cm wide and 25cm tall.There is no hard base inside the bag and it's made of very flimsy material,totally disappointing and pretty much useless, avoid

I used a New Balance bag before and I was very impressed with its quality so when I got a chance to get this brand bag in the Amazon Vine program in exchange for an honest review I grabbed the opportunity.This time I'm a little bit disappointed about its quality. I wanted to use this bag for the gym but because of the size of this bag, my all stuff doesn't fit in it, even though I don't have that much gym stuff to put in The bag feels very thin and cheap, not worth the price in my opinion. Thinner than the average material for bags seems like it could rip or break easily. Also, there is no base to hold the shape and sturdiness. The bottom of the bag is not toughened, so things thrown into it deform it. This is nothing like the photo, the bag is much smaller and the material looks very cheap. If you are looking for a small and lightweight bag then this bag is perfect for you but not for me.

This New Balance bag initially gave me a poor impression due to its flimsy appearance and seemingly small size. However, upon closer inspection and use, I discovered it to be a surprisingly practical and durable bag.The lightweight design and foldable feature make it incredibly convenient for travel. It can be easily packed away as an extra bag inside your luggage, ready for use when needed. While it may not look as sturdy as depicted in the product photos, it has proven to be quite resilient and capable of carrying a decent amount of weight.The bag's simple design and neutral colour make it versatile for various occasions, whether it's a quick trip to the gym or a day out shopping. The straps are comfortable to carry, and the overall construction feels reliable.Despite the initial impression, this New Balance bag has become a go-to option for its portability and surprising durability. It's a great value for the price and a practical addition to any bag collection.

I had high hopes for this New Balance duffel bag. After all, the brand has a solid reputation, and I was eager to use it for gym sessions and short trips. Sadly, this bag didn’t quite hit the mark. Sure, it’s light, sleek, and has a few handy compartments, but the lack of structure and flimsy material left me underwhelmed. I gave it to my son who wanted a small gym bag, and he is very happy with it.First off, the size – it’s on the smaller side, so if you’re someone who likes to pack a lot, be prepared for a tight squeeze. I found it just about big enough for a towel and a change of clothes for the gym, but anything more and it started to feel like a squeeze. The material is thin and feels less sturdy than I expected for the price, making me wonder how long it will last. There’s no solid base, so it loses its shape easily, and I wouldn’t be surprised if it started to sag after a few months.That said, it does have some redeeming features. The zips work smoothly, and it’s got a comfortable padded shoulder strap, which helps with carrying. And yes, it’s certainly lightweight, so if you’re looking for something compact to toss in the car for quick trips, this could fit the bill.In terms of value, it feels a bit overpriced for what it offers. For around £20, you’re essentially getting a simple, light bag that might serve you for a while if you’re not too hard on it, but don’t expect it to withstand much more than gym gear and a few small extras.Pros:- Light and easy to carry- Sleek, modern look- Comfortable padded shoulder strap- Perfect for light gym use or short tripsCons:- Thin, flimsy material- Lacks structure and base support- Small size limits packing capacity- Feels overpriced for the quality
