Fitmark Bag Review & Sport Tote Giveaway

By Lindsay 62 Comments

Fitmark Bag Review

A Fitmark Bag Review by yours truly. Gym bags are a funny one for me – I always feel like I am lacking one and want a cute, new one but I never end up finding something I like. Right now my soccer bag is a reusable cloth bag I got at a conference a couple years ago. And my “gym bag” is literally an old duffel bag that I’ve thrown my swimsuit, fins, and running shoes in. Time for a much needed upgrade!

Fitness Holiday Gift Guide - Fitness Sport Tote

Recently I was given the opportunity to try out a new gym bag by Fitmark. I was able to go to their website and select a bag. I chose the Sport Tote in purple. I was super excited about this bag because it was not only purple but a) cute and stylish b) a good size and c) had all sorts of different compartments for all my different gear. It’s got a separate shoe bag too, which is nice because I hate when the bottom of my shoes gets all over my other gear. It’s gross and I end up keeping my shoes outside of my bag when this happens. That or it makes a huge mess.

That’s me in the background getting photobombed by our soccer team captain as I tried to take a pic of my gym bag in action.

I also really love the shape and color of this bag. It’s super cute and feminine, which most gym bags are not. I also love the shoulder strap because it’s long enough to wear across my shoulder. It’s not small, but it’s not gigantic either so it can fit a fair amount of stuff including my work clothes for the day. I even started switching out our old soccer bag for this new beauty. I tried to get a picture of it for you all on the soccer field, but instead I got photobombed by our team captain!

Recently my husband and I went to the mountains to celebrate New Year’s and I took this bag with me as a separate bag in addition to my suitcase. It worked out great! I am pretty picky when it comes to finding a gym bag and I loved this Fitmark bag from the moment I saw it online. I even featured it in my Holiday Gift Guide for Fitness Lovers. If you got a gift card for the holidays and looking to get a new gym bag you might want to consider this one. Or if not, you’re in luck because in honor of this Fitmark Bag Review I’ve teamed up with the folks at Fitmark to offer all my awesome readers a chance to win their very own purple sport tote bag just like the one I have. So go ahead and enter below and we can be twinsies!

What about you? What kind of bag do you use for the gym? Post in the comments and let me know.

    This would be perfect for my gym outings…right now I’m using a little conference tote. It doesn’t zip so if it’s raining/snowing, my stuff gets wet.

    I have so any bags but none as functional as this looks! It doesn’t look bulky which I need since I carry at least 2 other bags along with it to work!

      Kris – this bag could probably hold everything for you. I took it to Vegas with me recently and it fit my laptop bag AND my purse.

    I use a Lululemon tote — the “vinyasa to vino” bag that I bought SUPER cheap at the LA Warehouse sale. I’d love to win this though, my mom needs a gym bag!

    I really need a new gym bag because my current one is ripping and it was a freebie! I’d use this when I go to my YMCA or to yoga classes outside of my gym.

      This bag has lots of compartments and zippered pockets which is great. I agree one big space is hard especially with different components and electronics.

        I get out of work and go straight to a local diner with my four kids where they have Zumba classes. We then go home and do our Sally Up’s (squats, knee ups, step up butt kicks to the Sally Up song) and if I’m not dying by then we go walking for about 2 miles.

    Too cute. My bag is one of those cheap string strap backpacks that don’t hold or separate, though that makes it sound like a bad bra.
    This would be a big improvement.
