Gym bags aren’t just for gym use. They are pretty versatile bags that can be used for almost everything from travel to storage. While there are lots of companies out there that offer gym bags. Are there any that offer gym bags made in the USA? Well, that’s what I’ll be looking at in this article.
We have already covered American made duffel bags, so this article is only for bags that are labeled or marketed as being specifically for gym use.

Gym Bags Made in the USA (I Looked For Some and Found This)
Now that we know which companies offer USA made gym bags, let’s take a look at each company in a little more detail.
Tough Traveler
Tough Traveler is an American company that produces a wide array of outdoor gear and accessories. It was founded in 1970 in Schenectady, New York. Throughout the company’s history, it has remained a New York based company.
Tough Traveler manufactures its bags at a facility in Schenectady, New York. According to the company’s About Us page, all of its bags are made with care in Schenectady. Tough Traveler uses premium quality materials to manufacture its products, so you won’t have to worry about your bag falling apart when in use.
All of Tough Traveler’s bags are made to last a very long time, in fact, one customer left a review that reads ‘I have had my Tough Traveler product for 36 years’. So, it’s safe to say that a bag purchased from Tough Traveler will stand the test of time.
While Tough Traveler has an extensive range of bags, only one of them is specifically made for gym use. While its other ranges of bags are perfect for the gym, I’ll be focusing on its fitness bag. For those wanting to take a look at Tough Traveler’s entire range, here’s a link. If you just want to see its fitness duffel bag, then you can find that here.
Bad Bags
Bad Bags was founded in the early 90s. It is a well-known manufacturer of high-quality bags that are built to withstand the most hostile conditions and situations. Its bags are favored among those who love being on the go.
From camping to mountaineering, its bags can be used across a wide range of different activities. Its bags can also be used for going to the gym. In the product description of a handful of its bags, it clearly states that some of its duffel bags are fit for gym use.
Bad Bags manufactures most, if not all, of its bags at its facility in Seattle. It is a proud American manufacturer. You can see that by taking a look at its various product descriptions which clearly state that its bags are proudly made in the USA.
