gym bags
So i find out some of the worst news today. My gym bag with all my gear was destroyed from the hurricane. You guys will love to hear what was destroyed:
Not only was some inventory for Golden Gear destroyed and thrown away but my own gear was ruined. Here is a brief list:
1x winning gloves
2x winning headgear (face saver/ fg2900)
1x cleto reyes
1x triumph heetseekers 1.0
1x ringside imf tech
4x gg gloves (my first gloves ever too)
a few sample gloves
1x gg shin pads
1x gg headgear
all my wraps
1x gg thai pads
(prob some other things too, but i came home and all of my gear was gone. The point of this post though is because i need a new gear bag. Any recommendations for a bag under $50 to fit a lot of gear?
Thanks

Sorry to hear that you lost all your gear. At least you have an excuse to get new ones now. If you want to replace your Winnings, Check out the custom winnings thread on shopping with Rakuten to get Winnings at a discount.
Bags
Nike Gym Bags $24.99
MMAwarehouse
Title Boxing Selection
Other options include an Army Duffel bag and Ranger Field Backpack which are really big and cheap, but not necessarily an mma brand.

Sorry to hear about that.
As for bags, I have this one: TITLE MMA Mega Sport Bag . I've had it for about a year, and it is holding up great. I can easily fit my shinguards, 16oz gloves, gi, purse, extra clothes...etc in it. The downside is carrying everything I carry in my bag makes it really heavy. LOL

Out of curiosity bud, are you going to keep your FG-2900 when you get your FG-5000 and use both depending on the session or just switch to the 5000?
As goes bags, I use 24" Mizuno gym bag ("collegiate" was the name I think) which has a ventilated compartment for shoes. It fits the above plus a towel and water. It was $45 if I remember correctly.

The fg 2900 is really new. Logged about 100 rounds which is about 10 days of usage. I was planning on selling it. Why? You in the market for a 2900?
Also, what are your exact bag dimensions?

Back on topic, the most important thing to consider would be what you want to put inside and the bags dimensions. Going off the top of my head for duffel bags and backpacks:
Length of 23" is the normal size, can fit gloves, shinguards, a headgear squeezed in, clothes and other stuff like a gi..
Length 28-32": Your gear plus thai pads and focus mitts.
Length 35": Everything fits plus extra gloves/shinguards/whatever, bag will be heavy...
35" in my experience is too big unless you carry thai pads to almost every class. I'd go with a 28-32" bag.
What exactly are you going to put in there?
