I was a little worried that the bag wouldn’t be big enough but it fits everything, and I carry a lot….2x shoes, mini white board, chalk, clips and there’s still space. I wish the photos showing the bag were better, it wasn’t until I saw my friends bag that I got the real idea of size….that and DPD took an age to get it to me, three goes and not telling me they attempt delivery until it’s too late! But the bag is here now and I’m more than super happy!

I have used a number of gym bags in the past but this one hits different from the quality to comfort materials and the lists goes on. Top tier kit highly recommended.

Clean, Efficient
Clean, smooth checkout. I would have bought more if I were able to use multiple discounts in one purchase. For example, there was an ongoing discount on accessories and a separate ongoing discount on patches that do not overlap at all with the accessories discount. Because only one discount can be applied to an order at a time, I removed the patches from my cart and only purchased the accessories. I didn’t end up buying the patches in a separate order as to avoid paying for shipping twice and will wait until I make another purchase to add the patches that I like. Otherwise, checkout was smooth with no surprises or interruptions.

Thank you so much for taking the time to leave your feedback and for choosing Built for Athletes. We’re glad to hear that you found the checkout smooth and easy to use.
We completely understand your point about discounts. Unfortunately, only one discount can be applied per order on our website at the moment. We hope this won’t stop you from picking up the patches you like on your next order.
Your feedback will be shared with the wider Built for Athletes team and is really appreciated.
Durable and Designed for Performance
Built For Athletes really delivers on quality. I bought one of their gym backpacks, and it’s easily the best one I’ve owned. The compartments are well thought out, and it feels tough enough to handle anything. Whether I’m heading to the gym or on a weekend trip, it works perfectly every time.
