The Glo Bag is flat out the best gym bag that I have ever seen (Glo stands for gym locker organizer). Developed by Jennifer Koutouras and Kendra Cunningham (two workout-loving moms/entrepreneurs from suburban Chicago), the Glo Bag is perfect for anyone living an active lifestyle and is definitely the perfect accessory for 2011!
I heard of the Glo Bag through a friend of mine who told me about her amazing new gym bag that could do it all. Intrigued, I got a hold of the Glo Bag and from my first minute with the product I was blown away.
The Glo Bag is big (18″h x 9″w x 14″d), but for a reason: it holds absolutely everything you would need on a trip to the gym. There are pockets everywhere, from the one on the strap that can hold a cellphone to one on either side (which I used for my keys and my ipod/headphones) and even a mesh pocket on the side to hold your water bottle or a rolled up yoga mat.
Aesthetically, the Glo Bag is beautiful. Made with durable ballistic nylon, the bag is available in black with three different accents and manages to look sleek and modern while being perfectly utilitarian. The padded shoulder straps were a very good touch, as they don’t seem to dig into your shoulders or chest even with the bag being completely filled with clothes and workout necessities.
The bag is specifically made to sit or hang inside of a gym locker and be fully accessible to everything inside (there are three different straps on the top of the bag to hang on any type of hook inside of a gym locker). In fact, the interior of the bag is really what makes the Glo Bag stand out from your everyday gym bag.
With two shelves that create three different compartments, the Glo Bag has an area for your shoes (up to a men’s size 14 or a women’s 16!), an area for your fresh set of clothes and even a seperate area for your toiletries bag or for your wet dirty workout clothes after you have showered and changed (the Glo Bag includes a wet bag which will keep your dirty clothes from sullying the rest of your belongings). The interior is also vented to keep things light and airy inside and has a small pocket which I used to hold my jewelry.
Surprisingly, even with a Glo Bag full of an extra set clothes, a pair of shoes, toiletries, a towel, my weight lifting gloves, knee brace and my workout towel, there was room to spare! As an alternative on one of my workout days, in lieu of extra clothing and a towel I managed to fit a basketball into the bag as well as my normal gym equipment.
The Glo Bag is already resonating within the celebrity circuit, with co-anchor and national correspondent for NBC’s Today Show Natalie Morales giving it the following ringing endorsement: “The Glo Bag is perfect for my lifestyle and keeping my workouts organized. It’s also great for any other activities you have planned. We took it with us skiing and it was great for the kids helmets and boots and couldn’t be happier with it. You’ll be very happy with all the Glo Bag can do.”
I personally plan on using the Glo Bag for my daily workouts, as well as for quick overnight trips out of town. With it’s many storage pockets, large interior and “shelves” for organizing, it is perfect for a trip to Bikram, some time on the basketball courts or a trip up the coast! With every Glo Bag currently coming with the Glo Hanging Toiletry Bag (perfect for your shower sundries) and Wet Bag (to compartmentalize any wet clothing), you shouldn’t hesitate to make it part of your accessories collection today!
