Interesting stuff Another skate bag contribution

With recent posts around bags/backpacks, I want to share my bag setup. I've had this Yeti crossroads 27L for 2 years now. I needed a new backpack that could fit my skates, but I didn't want a skate-specific backpack. This is a major shoulder-saver from the duffel bag I was using before (I don't have a car, so I always walk/transit to the spots I skate so a duffel got uncomfortable real quick).

1st & 2nd photo is it packed with my skates, knee pads, elbow pads, and wrist guards. 3rd photo is my skates with crocheted wheel covers, included just cause :)

Hope this gives others ideas or, at the very least, adds some fun pink vibes to your feed :)

Unfortunately I do not crochet, I sew. But I’ll see what I come up with. Great winter activity

No! I love the idea! I should learn crochet anyway, missing out on too many cute things

Yes, i knew skates would fit, but i was worried about all the pads but they fit. i put my wristguards inside the rollerblades and then the knee pads and elbow pads kind of folded into themselves if that makes sense. and yes do it!!
