Athalon Everything Boot Bag/Backpack - Ski - Snowboard

Ive got big feet. My ski boots are big and heavy. I was suspicious about a bag that could really make a difference but after reading the reviews and wanting to protect my boots on a trip I made the leap. This bag is great. Takes my size 13 ski boots without issue and there is still room in the middle compartment for my helmet (big head too), gloves, goggles and the rest of my skiing accessories. This is now my ski bag - its where I keep all my stuff so I can get dressed, grab my bag and skis and head out the door. Added bonus are the shoulder straps - I thought the bag would be too long to really wear as a backpack but it works well. After a long day of skiing its really nice to pack the bag and throw it over my shoulder and go. The bag is well constructed and is holding up well after a ski season of use. When its time to buy another one Ill be right back here.

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

Too small for size 14 snowboard boots plus helmet.

Love the bag. I have room for boots, helmet, extra clothes, everything. It really makes getting from the car to the lodge so much easier.

We have 4 kids who all love to ski. They each needed a bag to store their gear. I bought one of these years ago. We tried a couple other brands and sent them all back. This is the ONLY ski bag we will use. Its big!! They can hold all of their gear. I really like the inside zipper pocket for them store their food money and anything else small so it doesnt get lost. I cant say enough about the great quality of this bag.

Nice material, but enough pockets and good space for all my ski junk

This bag is great for people who own their own ski gear and have to do a lot of traveling. I havent had any problems with the handles breaking like some of the other reviewers have mentioned. Its really handy that the shoulder straps can be tucked away when you arent carrying it. Although I wrap my skis with my ski pants and jacket for additional padding, I was able to test out packing all my gear into this bag. Gear includes: -- ski pants, jacket, sweatshirt, two sweatpants, long underwear, gloves, helmet, goggles, and ski boots. I even had some room left over. Also if you want to use a locker at a ski resort, this bag is durable enough to fold up and shove into a tiny locker which is convenient.

I was pleasantly surprised that this bag carries my ski boots, gloves, pants, helmet, googles second layer fleece or puffy jacket, water bottle and a few snacks with ease. A very important feature is the strap that connects across the chest. This takes some of the weight off your shoulders. To put it in perspective for you, I have a hurt shoulder (may require surgery) and the design was able to distribute the weight across my back in a way the did not aggravate my shoulder. This is the first ski season that I’ve used the bag. Hopefully, it will last.

My husband told me he wouldnt use the (hidable) straps, but found them handy when he had to carry his own stuff and help another skier who had been injured. We did snip the stitching on one edge of the top inside fabric casing so we could melt the ends of the straps and handle more, given the reviews indicating that the handle ends can strip and pull out (thanks to reviewers who indicated this from their own experience!). We found that these ends could be melted more completely (my husband used a soldering iron for control, since the ends are short) so they couldnt strip and were fatter; my husband then tacked the casing back to the still-hot material, saving me some hand-sewing work. Everything else appeared very well made. He did have to write on it with a silver sharpie for labeling, as it has no built-in shipping tag and reviews say add-on strap ones tear off in airline transit. He had no problems whatever with this on his trip, and was amazed and amused at how much he could pack... and pack... and pack... into this after he had his boots and helmet in the appropriate compartments. He loved it! It carried everything his ski bag didnt. Definitely appreciate Athalons workmanship in general and would buy other products from them as needed.

We purchased 3 of these for the family for Christmas. They hold everything we need, including our ski pants and extra socks, and the separate compartment for goggles is great. I love the fact that the back carry straps can be tucked away when transporting in the car. Makes carrying our gear easy, and feels much lighter than trying to carry things apart. It also helps keep everyones gear tidy, ready to go, and together in the car. Now we just grab our bag and skis and load up the car. My only complaint was that I had to purchase these through amazon.com instead of amazon.ca.
