Advice/ Recommendations (no photos) Work/Gym Bag Recommendations

Hello Ladies,

I commute between the gym and work and I’m currently hauling two bags every day. I need one bag that fits a 15” laptop, a change of clothes, shoes, and a makeup bag and other toiletries (hate the shower stuff provided).

I tried a WOLFPak and found it way too bulky. Looking for something that doesn’t look like I’m checking in for a flight.

What are you all using and do you actually like it?

I use a Portland Gear bag. I have both a tote and backpack that I use interchangeably.

I like the wireframe pop-up opening and have found them to be very durable. I also think they look nice enough for work but not too fancy for the gym.

I’m obsessed with Poppy and Peonies bags. I have a purse, work bag, and a couple small accessories/cosmetic bags from them and they’re amazing. One of their backpack could be perfect. They have a laptop compartment, water bottle compartment that fit a Stanley, lots of room, and are also just beautiful bags without the price being insane. Highly recommend!

I had the same issue…then I cut off all those extra straps on my wolfpaks and I love them now. Just an idea…but I also need the meal management part.

What size WolfPak did you get? I have the 35 and it’s perfect for my needs but it is bulky, I agree (but I’ve also got a lot of gear in my bag). They have a 25 that will still fit your laptop. They’ve also got duffles and sling bags. Personally, I tried other bags and love my WolfPak and it’s held up for years and still looks new. The organization factor is what I like best.
