  • Learn More About Team Sports & Gym Bags

    Sports bags and gym bags are similar in several ways. They’re both used to carry necessary athletic gear and clothes. Likewise, both sports bags and gym bags often come with shoe compartments that help keep dirt away from the rest of your gear.


    Though many use the terms interchangeably, there are a few key differences between sports bags and gym bags. Gym bags are special totes made for carrying shoes, clothing, and other necessities to a fitness center. Gym bags usually have several pockets for items such as water bottles. Even small gym bags often feature at least one pocket.


    Team sports bags are typically more specialized. Along with toting clothing and shoes, sports bags are designed to accommodate equipment for specific sports. Compartments, loops, and the bag’s shape make it easier to stash rackets, balls, and protective gear.

    The shops on Etsy offer many types of gym bags to suit just about any fitness activity. Here are a few shoppers’ favorites.


    • Drawstring gym bag: These compact gym bags are a lightweight option if you don't need to bring a lot with you to the gym. Draw the string tightly to close the bag, sling the strap over your shoulder, and go.
