Help! I'm looking for a bag to hold my stuff-not for yoga, but for pilates and body sculpting. Need room for a 23" x 6" diameter mat, one resistance tube and 2 sets of hand weights - plus water bottle. For some classes I carry a stability ball, so right now I have my hands so full, I can hardly open the door to the gym! Would appreciate any feedback. Help!

We have this bag and while it is roomy for a yoga mat - I'm not certain you'd get the resistance tube and 2 sets of hand weights in it... maybe a towel or something lightweight. Good luck - Namaste

So your mat is about 2 feet wide and 6 inches high. Doesnt sound like is wraps up like a roll. This bag will fit thick rollable pilates or yoga mats and prob hand weights if rolled within a mat. Dont think this bag will fit your gear. Sounds like you need a tote wide like a beach bag but those arent usually able to hold heavy gear comfortably on your shoulders.

The bag is pretty big. I was able to put my yoga mat, grippy mat cover, change of clothes and water bottle in there. Not sure if it will fit all the stuff you have, but I think it's worth a try. As far as yoga bags go, I haven't found anything bigger.

It sounds to me as though you're looking for the same thing I was when I bought this bag. I do property inspections so I carry camera, tape measure, small notebook, small light, etc and honestly I had high hopes for this bag and it failed miserably for my purposes. I'm sure it's a great school bag but it doesn't have the reinforcements necessary to hold it's shape or provide easy access. Don't get this bag for what you're doing. I bought a UTG Multi-functional Tactical bag and it's perfect. I also like the Bestek SLR DSLR Canvas bag for what you're doing both of these bags I got from Amazon. I carry either depending on my location. Good luck and I hope this helped.

It should definitely fit that. I have had my macbook pro, size 12 gym shoes and gym clothes in mine. Its a great little bag, it expands up. I have even had 2 growlers filled in it with a towel wrapped around for cushion. You will be surprised what you can fit in it. I also have the saddle bags that go with this tail bag. Good combo on my ninja 300.

I think you might want to go with something a little bigger - like the Mountainsmith Lumbar-Recycled Day Series. I have a 13 inch MacBook and can't get it inside my Tour (which I use for my Canon T2i) but can fit it in my Day Series: Mountainsmith Lumbar-Recycled Series Day TLS R Backpack

I have a 34" waist and my torso is a bit longer than yours and I am sure there is both room to "cinch-it down" or open it up from there, as needed. I know it says "skinny" style in the description, but I think that is very misleading because this bag will fit most frames (unless you are less than 120 lbs or over 300).This is easily the best bag I have ever owned (out of about 5-6 other brands, sizes, styles, etc.) and I have been adding gear to it ever since I received it from Amazon. I cannot wait to really get out and beat on it a bit because I know it will take it and as such, would recommend it to anyone.JC I have a 34" waist and my torso is a bit longer than yours and I am sure there is both room to "cinch-it down" or open it up from there, as needed.

max width for me as a gym bag user is 20-22 inches.Anything bigger is hard to fit easily in typical locker. This particular bag isn't very flexible with the waterproof coating. I would go small for gym, up to you to decide how much space you need for weekends.

I have a yoga mat, 2 cork blocks and a towel in mine. It is very loose fitting for the mat so there is extra room for stuff.

A yoga mat is great if you have a hardwood or laminate floor. Hand weights are also needed. My current hand weights only go up to 5lbs right now, which has been perfect for me for the past 3 1/2 months. She also uses resistance bands in the workouts but if you didn't purchase the kit that comes with them then the hand weights would work just fine.

I haven't been able to find any other bag that will fit. I actually thought of going to a GI surplus store but haven't made it to one as yet. Good luck finding one.

ill measure mines tomorrow. pretty big. i still havent found a bag to fit it. i purchased one for $12 but it only fits a mat thats 1/4" thick. and this one is double that size.

Yeah, I got a random email saying someone replied to this. Did a slight double take. =) It certainly would have helped me before I bought it. I'm actually alternating between this bag and a 15" Swissgear Maxxum backpack I modified to fit my HP dv7 depending on how much I'm carrying. When I've got several heavy textbooks, a backpack is so much more comfortable than a messenger.

It depends on what it measures around (the circumference) when it's rolled up. My mat measures 18" around and there's easily enough room for another inch. The width of her mat, 24", becomes the "length" of the bag and should fit easily. Mine measures 22 1/4" and I stash a hand weight at either end of the bag - plenty of room. This is the best size bag I have found without it being monstrous! And the name speaks for itself-offered by L.L. Bean. It's very sturdy and the zipper isn't wimpy-also comes in great, fun colors!

This is a late response to Diosdado but if it can help someone else...I am a female with small, bony 6" wrists. I ordered the Pro series in small and extra small. The small had a bit of room but couldn't close tighter because that was as far as it could go. There was also some excess strap sticking out which I knew would drive me insane while lifting. The extra small could close tighter (I know they say you don't want it tight but I like having the option) and I was able to make it looser as well. The main thing was no excess strap sticking out. Now, my husband tried the small on and while he didn't lift anything with the grips they seemed to fit him okay.

I would think so....I fit two 1/4" yoga mats rolled together into it. I guess it depends on the bulkiness of the towel...I was hoping I could fit my two yoga blocks into it...but they def don't fit. Still I'm happy with the bag. Hope this helps.

Ok, let me see if I got this straight: are your gym clothes light? If yes, I honestly think it will all fit in it... I have put a lot of things in it before, and it never turned me down... I just hope it will suit you well!

Hello Chelsea. I got the small size and it is big enough to have all my gym stuff (shoes, pants, t-shirt, and a bag with hygiene things). I hope this answer help you to decide what you need. :-)
