Athalon Everything Boot Bag/Backpack - Ski - Snowboard

I bought this bag about 2 years ago and it has been holding up great. I cant wait to use it for a third season. I love how big and roomy it is and how I can fit everything that I need in it. The boot pockets are nice since there is a port at the base where water and snow can escape and its separate from the main pocket. I havent needed to clean it out since it doesnt get as muddy as I thought it would. I loved mine so much and I got a ton of compliments, so I bought one for a friend and she loves it. I recommend this bag to any skier who wants to have all their equipment in one place and looking for something durable.

Love this bag. Holds my boots and plenty of other gear like thermals, goggles, gloves, etc. Between this and my ski bag I can fit everything I need for a full ski vacation and not need anything else. The bag is really sturdy and well made. Ive taken it on at least a dozen plane trips, checked it every time (you could probably carry it on though it would be a tight fit on regional planes) and have had no issues. The material is thick and sturdy. The zippers are serious. I dont see them coming undone any time soon. And there are enough pockets to keep organized. There is no padding on the sides of the bag where my boots are so I usually try to throw some thermals in there to protect them, but I am probably just being over-cautious. Ive only worn it like a backpack a couple of times, but it is easy enough to strap in and carry that way.

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.

This perfect bag to carry ski equipment.. Easy to wear light back pack

This is the best bag! I can fit everything in on spot. Ski boots on the side and in the middle: heavy jacket, 2 heavy pants, 4 base layers, helmet, goggles, gloves, and socks. Love this bag!

Too small for size 14 snowboard boots plus helmet.

I recommend this bag for all derby skaters! Its like Mary Poppins purse! Theres SO much room. I keep one skate in each side pocket (which also has venting holes!) and can fit 2 knee, 2 elbow, 2 wrist guards, my helmet, spare shorts and a tank, and still have room to spare!! I love all the pockets and the handles are VERY solid! The back is padded and the straps are well padded too! Its also collapses very small so its great to put in a suitcase if youll need to use it when you get to where youre going. Ive had mine for the last couple years of skating and couldnt recommend it more. For the price, its an incredible deal.

Center storage area is huge. I was worried that helmet and gloves might be a tight fit. I have Helmet, goggles, 3 pair of gloves and plenty of room to spare.

This bag is truly beautiful and has loads of space. However, when packed with my figure skates, pads (elbow, knee, head protection) and water bottle, it is TOO heavy to carry by the handles or on my back. What a shame as it is very stylish. Going back to the company.

Purchased two different bags for my kids - my son wanted an rust/orange on and this bag fit the bill. I have to say that compared to another brand of boot bag that shall remain nameless (starts and ends with a T) this is a GREAT bag. Plenty big and the handles are reinforced. I can see my son being able to carry a days plus worth of gear and his helmet in the pocket of this bag. I was very surprised how much could be put into this bag. Time will tell if it holds up but all indications are that this will serve him well for years to come. I am ordering one for myself today.
