What kinds of skate bags are there and how to choose them?

Outdoor activities and sports often require specialized equipment. Figure skating, ice hockey and inline skating are common activities that require equipment. To carry skates with you, you can use any bag, but it is most convenient and rational to use specialized products created specifically for such sports shoes.

Figure skating is a very beautiful sport that can be practiced at any age. Whether skating amateur or professional, you need to take care of the safety of your shoes. Not every city has an ice rink or street skating rink, so roller skates are an alternative in the warm season.

To keep your sports equipment in good shape and to transport it comfortably and safely from home to your training site, you need to carry it around. The skate bag can have a different appearance, which does not prevent it from fully protecting the contents. The availability of design and pattern options allows the athlete to choose the most convenient way to transport skates.

Good bags should have:

• durable and waterproof fabric that reliably protects the contents in any weather;
• the shape of the product, which is selected in such a way that it is convenient to fold and carry the skates;
• additional departments and pockets for small items that allow you to carry everything you need in one bag;
• reliable fittings, thanks to which there will be no problems with opening and closing bags, pockets, as well as with safe carrying of the product on the shoulder.

Thanks to the use of specialized bags, it is possible to carry and store skates in an optimal position so that they do not rub against each other, do not scratch, which is especially important for shoes with blades. The presence of ventilation compartments allows the contents not to "suffocate", not to stale and not to have an unpleasant smell of dirty shoes.

To protect the contents of your duffel bag from external and internal influences, you need to use suitable fabrics. To create skate carriers, you need materials that can withstand high loads, resist tearing from blades, protect contents from rain or snow, and keep your uniform from getting wet if it is adjacent to figure skating or hockey shoes.

Manufacturers use two main types of bag materials:

• nylon;
• polyester.

Thanks to the reliability of these fabrics, the finished product lasts as long as possible and allows you to get optimal comfort from use. To ensure a robust and durable construction, manufacturers use 600D polyester and nylon, which are ideal for these applications. The availability of different colors allows you to create bags for men, women and children. Design and construction features enable everyone to find the best skate bag option.

Another type of carriers are suitcasesfor which nylon and plastic are used. Thanks to the nylon inner layer, it is possible to conveniently position the shoes, separating them from clothes and accessories, fully protecting them from moisture and deformation.

The main feature of the materials used to sew skate bags is their durability and resistance to various influences.... The fabric has high indicators of wear resistance, it does not wear off from contact with the blade of the skates due to the reinforced bottom of the product.

The advantage of synthetic material is the absence of mold, even with constant contact with moisture. These bags are easy to care for, the fabric is quick to clean and dries well.

A skate carrier can have a different shape, depending on the size of the skates, the need for additional items and accessories, and the age of the owner. The most popular is the triangular-shaped backpack bag. Thanks to the special design, it is possible to conveniently position the shoes inside, protecting them from excessive friction and movement inside the bag. Such products are usually worn on one strap, throwing it over the shoulder.
