Gold BJJ Jiu Jitsu Duffle Bag - Waterproof Pocket for Sweaty Gi, Rashguard, or Shoes - The Perfect Duffel Bag for Martial Arts Gear, Boxing, MMA, and More

This bag exceeded my expectations, in that it is roomy and has special features (a section for “wet” or dirty Jiu Jitsu Gis) on one end and a zip up side that has a mesh pocket for holding anything, like my phone or flip flops (in a bag). I used the front zip pocket along the front side (with mesh pocket) for my wallet, keys, first aid pouch, lip balm, comb, etc. It was easy to access and better than previous bags in which items would fall to the bottom and become hard to retrieve since the pockets were too deep or nonexistent. The center area of the bag is very roomy, and it was easily able to hold two or more! Gis, a towel, spats & rash guard. I usually brought one Gi, but I could fit much more. The style is very cool and subtle (I own the black duffle), which I love. Best of all, it is strong but super lightweight. I also own the black Gold BJJ backpack, which I always loved and did not think that I could switch, since I was not sure if this bag would be too big or heavy. I still love the backpack as it is lightweight and perfect for a Gi, but I used this bag much more and really appreciated its roominess. Since it was so lightweight, it was easy to carry over one shoulder. Often, it was lightly packed so it was even better and it didn’t look too big. I highly recommend both this bag and the backpack. After using other brands’ bag, I will not switch from either of these! Some bags are enormous and heavy and they look like one is going on a backcountry trek. This bag is also easy to wash, as well. Very cool and very practical! I have been using Gold BJJ Submission Soap for years (and will not stop!), and I decided to try their other products. Excellent customer service, as well.

I waited for this bag for months waiting for it to restock and I'm happy to support the brand. The reviews were great. I wanted to love it. I really wanted to. The overall build of the bag is much more flimsy than I'd hoped. I was really surprised that for the price the connectors for the strap are kind of a cheap plastic. Pros include a solid design with the pocket for gi belt .. The design of the pockets is smart. My favorite part of the bag. The extra compartment for sweaty gi very useful!! All in all, it's a decent bag, but I suspect it will need to be replaced in a relatively short period of time because of the lesser quality of the elements like connectors and zippers. Fingers crossed that for the price I get decent use out of it.. (I'm not holding my breath). Useful for what it does with light use. For heavy duty training I'm not sure. I do know I would not pay this much for this bag again. There are other more affordable, sturdier options.

Quality and simple. As expected.

I waited a good while to write this review as I wanted to see how it worked with daily jiu jitsu and regular weight gym sessions. Short answer: Awesome! If you want a bag that can carry your gym clothes, street clothes, gi, and towel, this is it, and when your clothes are sweaty and need to be washed, they fit perfect into the dry pouch. Along with a pair of flip flops!

Worked great originally but the pouch for the dirty gi somehow stopped working and now the whole bag smellsEdit: They refunded the full amount and responded very quickly
