I want to buy a bag for the gym. Just for me... not a family bag. What kind of bag do you have?

    I have a Nike Livestrong bag and an Under Armour bag. they are both great and have lots of compartments. Also a spot to keep the shoes away from your clothes.

    I don't take a bag to the gym. I go dressed & ready for action, then come home and change.

    I take a backpack or just a tote when I need to change but usually just a simple drawstring backpack for my shoes and lock.... Nothing fancy here.....

    Same here! If I do take extras (shower stuff, change of clothes, swimsuit) then I just re-use a plastic shopping bag.

    I actually use a small carry on type suitcase with wheels. Since I go to the gym 5 times a week, I 'm showering there I have all my bathroom crap with me. Hubby bought me a the suitcase instead of hauling around a duffel bag especially since parking is tough in NYC and sometimes have to walk several blocks from where I park.

    The pattern is wonky, but I love that it has a separate (externally accessed!) compartment for my shoes. Lots of space, comfortable, free yoga mat holder, and it has a contrasting internal lining, which I think is cute.

    I just take an over the shoulder decently large cotton bag (it may be linen, actually) not many compartments, it's more of a hobo-style oversized purse. Since I head straight to the gym after work all I do is put my workout clothes in it, throw in a hair tie, deodorant and body spray, stick my tennis shoes in a plastic bag inside of it. Then once I'm at the gym I just throw my work clothes in it and switch the shoes out. It's nothing fancy but it works! lol

    I use a large canvas bag that's actually for grocery shopping... I only bring my shoes, deodorant, hair brush, water bottle, sweat rag and MAYBE a change of clothes if I'm heading out after working out.

    The owner of the gym walked over and gave me a bag. That probably has some deeper meaning, but hey, free bag!

    I need a monstrous bag since I workout in the morning and go straight to work. I had the largest Adidas duffel but it's coming apart at the handle. I am eyeing those mini suitcases on wheels. I "window shop" for The Perfect Bag at ebags.com. It's sick, really.

    I got my bag through a lucky draw at work, it has the company logo on it.
    If I were to buy a new bag, this would be one:
    http://www.amazon.com/OGIO-Big-Dome-Street-Duffel/dp/B001EYU50Q
    There are smaller bags, the Half Dome, etc.

    I have 2 Ogio messenger / laptop bags and they are superbly well made.
