Athletico Two-Piece Snowboard and Boot Bag Combo | Store & Transport Snowboard Up to 165 CM and Boots Up To Size 13 | Includes 1 Snowboard Bag & 1 Boot Bag (Black)

Being from the sunny parts of South Africa I myself do not partake in skiing so can not comment on it's intended use, but can give a fair review based on what it is for me. As a participant in HEMA I have been scouting for a bag that will be able to carry my swords, but finding one long enough to carry a longsword was problematic as most carry bags are either over priced, short on stock or just simply too short. This snowboard bag was a great buy as it has more than enough space for them and my jacket, towel and change in clothes - which all now double as a convenient padding between the blades. The boot bag that came with it removes the need of my sluggish secondary bag as it is actually big enough to host my Head overlay with the mask in it next to my buckler and fitting my sparring mittens in the mask, makes this one purchase all I need for my gear. The boot bag also has a side pouch which fits my light sparring gloves, cleaning cloth, and water bottle. Both bags also have shoulder straps making them very convenient. I have not have the bag long enough to comment on durability, but it seems strong and well made having had pulled on the seams and zipped-up tracks for strength. I have given it full marks on all scores because - even though it is little more than a Robust canvas bag with handles, it is still 100% more than anything else on the market for that price and with the convenient Boot bag that comes with it the score gets pushed to 200% in my opinion. I can't comment on what it does for skiing, but this product seems to be tailor fit for HEMA.

Exactly what I was looking for. Good quality

Decent for the price, just got it so I can't comment on durability but like all budget products treat it well and you should get your money's worth. I am happy that this bag actually fits the advertised length of snowboard. I am mostly writing this to compare it to the similarly-priced High Sierra snowboard sleeve and bag combo here: High Sierra Snowboard Sleeve And Boot Bag Combo, Black . I got the High Sierra bags are priced cheaper but I got the Athletico bags tax free so they were actually a couple dollars cheaper but essentially they are the same price. Board bag: The Athletico bag claims to fit a 165cm snowboard, and it fits my 164 with bindings with about 2cm to spare. The High Sierra bag did NOT fit my 164, I had to stretch the fabric and even then could barely get the zipper closed, felt like it was going to break a seam or the zipper so I returned it. The zipper on the Athletico bag also unzips about 2/3 down the length of the bag which makes it WAY easier to get your board in and out of it, whereas the High Sierra bag only opens on one end which makes it tough to use. Athletico bag has a split handle on both sides of the zipper with velcro grip to join them and also a shoulder strap. The High Sierra bag only has a handle (which is split in 2 but the bag doesn't open between the handle halves so it's pointless). Also, I use Flow bindings and I leave the ratchet straps set so I can't fold my bindings all the way flat without undoing them, and the Athletico bag fits it fine with the bindings mostly straight up. Boot bag: I feel like the Athletico boot bag is slightly smaller than the High Sierra one, but both fit my size 12 Thirty-two prime boots and my Bern helmet with room to spare. Athletico bag also comes with a shoulder strap for the boot bag, which the High Sierra does not. Athletico bag has a small mesh elastic pocket on the outside, where you could stick wet gloves or something, so that's a plus. Appearance: Athletico bags are blag with white zippers, whereas the High Sierra bags are all black. Minor difference but I like the contrast on the Athletico bags better. Protection: Like other reviewers have said, neither of these bags (either brand) have ANY padding, they are simply sleeves to keep your gear together and prevent casual scratches when tossed in your car. I expected this so I won't knock either for being thin, and I definitely do not plan to use these for checking on an airplane. Final thoughts: This Athletico bag combo is superior to the High Sierra bag combo in several ways, and I got it for cheaper. Athletico gets 4/5 stars for now, meaning it has met my expectations for the price. If I get 2 years light use out of these bags without them falling apart then it will warrant 5 stars. For reference I gave the High Sierra combo a 2/5 rating and returned it.

I took a chance on this snowboard bag after reading a negative review and am glad I did. The negative review I read said the description is misleading, but I found this bag to be exactly as described. I have a 157cm board and it easily fits, and could probably fit a 165cm board a little snug. The bag seems to be pretty high quality material and was the cheapest bag I could find. I am an intermediate snowboarder who goes about 2-4 times a year and this bag is perfect for my needs. The bag is NOT padded but you can put clothes and other things in the bag to pad the board. I have managed to fit all my gear inside this bag (goggles, boots, helmet, jacket, snowpants, gloves,etc. )with still some room left over. If you put two boards inside the bag it may be tougher to fit extra stuff as padding, but i have not tried that yet. The foot bag is a nice additional thing for the price. It easily fits my mens size 11.5 boots, but now that i found the bag fits my boots as well, i use the boot bag for other purposes. Material for the boot bag is the same as the board bag. I have used these bags two times both in my own car and on a bus and have been very pleased with the bag both times. It may not be padded and protective enough for a plane unless you put clothes in the bag as well, but for my purposes this bag has been great. Can't wait to keep using it.

I just purchased this product for my daughter. We haven’t yet put it through all the tests yet as it is July and No snow in New Mexico. That being said. The quality seems very good. I tugged at the seams pulled on the handles and was rough with the fabric. I feel like this will last a while. Plenary of space for her board with lots of extras. I will say we will wrap her board in a few old beach towels just to give it some padding. Her boots fit great in the boot bag along with her helmet and goggles. Again with space to spare. Her bird is a 146 and size 8 boots. For the price of this combo set you can’t go wrong. It is going to be perfect to protect the board during our long summers and from the everyday scuff and wear during the season. Thanks for a great product and price. Like I said. We haven’t yet used the bag to realistically express an opinion on sturdiness and durability, but I do think they will hold up

We use for kids weekly school trip to ski lodge to decrease the wear and tear on their boards. Durable and the perfect size for board and boots and other gear. The quality had been great, no rips, no tears, no loose threads. Zippers still work great

I needed a bag for my daughter's snowboard for transporting it in my van to contain the snow. We've only used it once so far but the first trip out and it worked well. Daughter loves the colored zipper (blue) to break up the sea of black. Seems well made. we have a 145 cm board with bindings and still have room and the boot bag is holding a size 8 womens boot with extra room for gloves, googles etc.

This is an affordable, entry-level, non-padded nylon bag with questionable stitching. Do not expect this to last years, specially if you dare to beat it around too much. Not the kind of bag you want for flying with your board! I bought this to keep my board and its accessories sealed and organized in my storage unit. Then to get to and from the mountain in my car. The boot bag is a nice add-on that I am using with my boots and can probably take a little more abuse (no sharp edges to cut the bag). That said, the snowboard bag is well outfitted with handles and removable over-the-shoulder strap which comes handy (but do not abuse the load you put on it). For my particular needs this kit is a good value and should last me quite a while since I am not doing a whole lot of snowboarding these days. I highly recommend a padded bag for peace of mind if you can afford it.
