Athalon Everything Boot Bag/Backpack - Ski - Snowboard

Finally one place to keep all my ski gear organized - boots, helmet, gloves, goggles, socks, balaclava etc. Bought a different color for my wife so its easy to keep track of which is which. Quality seems good so far (one ski trip) and looks good.

I just received this bag today and, unfortunately, the zipper isnt actually stitched into the bag all the way around on the main compartment. I was hoping to use it this weekend, but instead I will wait for a replacement from Amazon. I got two of this bag (different colors) and the other is fine. This bag holds a TON of stuff, its easy to fit in a pair of womans boots and two helmets. I guess time will tell if it holds up or if this I come to regret buying--and bothering to go through the process of exchanging--this bag. Update: the replacement bag arrived with the zipper completely unstitched in the same part of the bag (and barely attached all the way around the main compartment) so Amazon must have a bad batch of this White out color. The Batik color I also purchased is stitched well in the zippers. That bag is currently holding womens boots and helmet and an additional 2 youth helmets with ease--it has great capacity and is comfortable to carry. Update 2: the replacement for the replacement arrived. The zipper is just barely stitched the whole way around the bag. I tugged on the zipper to try to get an idea of whether it is going to fail catastrophically right away, and it seems mostly okay, so Im going to keep it. The Batik color bag I also purchased from Amazon has held up through several ski trips and the White out bag has done OK so far over 7-8 ski trips. I use one to carry womens boots, helmet/goggles, snowpants, sweatshirt, hats, mittens and the other to carry 2 youth boots, 2 youth helmet/goggles, and snowpants, hats, mittens for the pair. They are really handy for lugging all the pieces around, especially with kids.

Ive had the exact same bag that I paid easily double the price for over 5 years. Its flown with me to St. Moritz, Chile and on numerous trips out west. Its durable and very well made. I just purchased two more of them, one for my wife and daughter

The bag is huge and seems well constructed except for the handle. With ski/snowboard gears are quick heavy, especially ski boots, a bag packed full will snapped the carry handle on the top as it is only sewed lightly at the top. So if you dont rely on the top handle, you will be fine. Just hold the back strap or the entire bag.

I was super stoked when I first opened up the bag. Love the plaid print, it’s a big bag with left and right compartments for boots separate from the center compartment (which is huge). It’s big. Lots of compartments. My helmet fits in the middle with tons of space to spare for more stuff, though I left it mostly empty for this trip. Zipper pulls are nice. Zipper itself is mediocre. Disliked the metal hardware compared to the nicer ABS hardware on my eBags backpack. Big problem is the carry handle ripped off this thing the first time I used it. I have all fairly lightweight gear, Atomic Hawx boots, Oakley mod 3 helmet, Oakley goggles. A pair of DaKine spring gloves. Bag was picked up normally and carried maybe 250 feet with the handle, and it ripped loose like a tear away tag, like it was designed to. It’s a bad design. The padded grab handle on the front Is well-designed, sturdy and works well, but the top carry handle and stowable backpack strap hardware are deal-breakers. I’m going to be asking for a return on this bag.

This is my daughter’s ski bag. Best bag ever. Holds so much. Boots and all. I have bought 5 of these bags. One we had for about 2 Ski seasons when it’s split on the same. My son-in-law contacted the company They gave him instructions on what to do and replace the bag without any issues. This is an amazing company these bags have a five year warranty and they honor it. I would buy anything from them

LOVE this bag! Talk about holding everything but the kitchen sink!! This boot bag holds both ski boots, helmet, goggles, 2 pairs of gloves, ski pants, 2 ski jackets, socks, face mask, and MUCH MORE. I wear a 25.5 boot and there is plenty of room to put more stuff in the boot compartments. There are drainage holes for the boots and the boots are separated from the middle compartment so all your other items stay dry. I bought 2, one for me and one for my husband, so we can carry our gear on our flight. As some people mentioned it did arrive with a strong smell from being in plastic, but I let it air out a day and it was fine. I LOVE the 2 hardy straps to carry as a backpack and it has a comfy rubber handle you can carry it with too. I highly recommend this bag!! If you way over stuff it I dont know if it will fit in overhead compartment on a plane. I will let you know. Im going to over stuff mine and put very little in my husbands just in case. Check out my photos, everything you see is in the bag zipped up and there is still room for MORE!

This is THE large, good looking, well thought out bag of choice. At about 60 bucks, its a great value. I have size 30 boots and they fit. The main gear storage is huge. Jacket, helmet, mitts AND sweater? Yup. There are FOUR! small pockets. All zipped. All useful. The boots drain well at night. And there are TWO handles plus the two shoulder straps. So its versatile and wont leave you hanging if any of them break.

My goal was to utilize this as a backpack-bag for my ski boots. They fit in nice and easily. I put in my gloves, vest, facemask, hat, and other lightweight ski accessories on top of the boots and in the side pockets. The material is nice, as are the front and top handles. For anyone who has ever traveled by air to a ski destination, youll be able to sympathize with me for what happens next: I used this bag for the very first time this past weekend. I was flying out for two days with some friends to go skiing. Had my carry on in one hand, ski bag in another, and this on my back (utilizing its back-straps). After having it on for 15 minutes at the airport, I heard a snap, and this bag came crashing down. The plastic buckle piece on the strap had broken! I wasnt running, I wasnt jumping. When this happened I was merely standing in line to check in the ski and boot bags. Needless to say, for the rest of the trip, whenever I had to carry this along with the ski bag and my carry-on, I cursed Athalons name. Luckily my purchase was still within the Amazon return policy window; will be returning this and purchasing another boot bag. Preferably one that has sturdier buckles for the backpack straps.
