A gym bag’s job is to make sure you have all that you need for an effective workout sesh, whatever that may entail. From hot yoga and HIIT to hot-girl walks, we consider all movement exercise, and want you to be properly equipped to carry whatever water bottle, ankle weights, or specific gear you need. There are gym bags on the market for every lifestyle, schedule, and taste — and they don’t have to cost big bucks: From large totes that can take you from the office to the gym to teeny pouches that fit only the essentials, we’ve scouted the crème de la crème in the category. There may even be some that you didn’t think could be gym bags (and some that could double as travel weekender or work bags).
