Branded sports bags and holdalls to carry your logo and message

Staying fit doesn’t come easy to most people, but luckily, dressing in quality gym clothes and having some useful accessories on hand helps keep motivation up. One such item is a sports bag — that holdall where you can store your gym shoes, water bottle, dry towels, deodorant, and more. This bag is a must-have due to how convenient it is to carry daily, offering plenty of room for all your necessities. One hidden benefit, however, is that it can also be used for promotional purposes!

How to choose the best promotional sports bags for your promotion

One of the advantages of using printed sports bags to increase brand recognition is that they’re suitable for daily use. Gym-goers won’t be able to live without their bags. And by giving them away for free, your company will be seen as a true friend — an ally on this journey toward getting fit!

Another fantastic advantage is all that space available for your artwork. Sports bags and holdalls aren’t ever tiny, so you will certainly have enough room to display your logo and company information in full glory. This should almost guarantee the bags will draw attention wherever they are, thus helping you make dozens of impressions every time they’re in use. 

As you can see, we offer a variety of promotional sports bags and shoe bags in a range of designs and colours. All of them can be produced in a short amount of time (from 5 to 10 working days). However, before placing your order, consider what kind of material, design, and types of straps would suit the audience you’re trying to impress best.

Choosing the right material for your holdalls and sports bags

Typically, sports bags are made from leather, canvas and nylon, and their prices depend on the material you go for. Leather sports bags seem to be the classiest choice here, but they tend to be a bit heavy. A good alternative is a canvas sports bag, which can, on occasion, serve for other purposes (e.g., for beach days).

On the other hand, nylon is a solid choice if you want your branded holdalls to stay in use for a long while. This material is durable and weather-resistant, so it may be the most convenient option for your audience.

Handles, straps or both?

Comfort is a massive advantage of quality sports bags — and can easily sway your target audience toward using them often. Different people, however, like different straps. For some, two comfortable and durable handles are all they need to haul their bags around. Others, though, prefer sports backpacks or bags that come with a longer strap they can place across their shoulders. 

You won’t go wrong if you go for a bag with both a longer strap and two handles, of course. That way, your target audience can always choose the most comfortable carrying option.

Which design works best for your audience?

Before ordering your branded sports bags, you ought to think about the design too. When it comes to the bag’s size, some gym-goers may prefer a smaller handheld duffel bag. Most people, however, love the bigger ones that they can also use for travel.

The choice largely depends on the amount of gear someone would carry around. In the end, it’s much safer to go for a bigger bag (much more convenient to pack). Plus, a larger bag offers more artwork space for your logo and company information!

Finally, take into account that specific activities may require different kinds of bags. Yoga bags, for example, often have straps for the yoga mat. CrossFit bags go (a few) steps further than that; these usually have multiple compartments to store lots of essentials (towels, water bottles, gym shoes, flip-flops, wraps, belts), making them perfect for CrossFit competitions too.
