FAQS

The main difference is the unique weightlifting belt attachment. This feature allows the bag be used as normal, while carrying a cumbersome lifting belt on the outside. Other changes are the volume (25L and 33L) and the layout.

Most of the materials are the same as used in other KNKG bags. YKK zippers, heavy duty buckles, nylon lining and webbing are all the same. In the CORE range, we have gone for a lighter 500D nylon outside and a new velcro logo feature that allows you to go 'incognito' with your own patches.

Measure the widest point of your belt. The CORE33 (Large) Backpack can fit a belt up to 6.3"/16cm wide. The CORE25 (Medium) Backpack can fit a belt up to 5.9"/15cm wide.

And yes! Lever belts will work with this bag.

The CORE25 (Medium) Backpack fits shoes up to size 10 US mens trainers/runners comfortably. The CORE33 (Large) Backpack fits up to size 13 US mens.

This backpack is designed for serious lifters who crave serious organization.

    This bag is perfect to fit all my gym gear and a shaker bottle. I have an SBD belt that I’m careful to take with me to the gym for my lifts and this fits it perfectly. I only wish I would have gone with this bag sooner than I did. The material is sturdy and feels well made. Time will tell how long it lasts but over all I’m very much impressed.

    KONG IS KING!

    Love my Core Backpack! Extremely high quality and functional. All the right zippered pouches in right size. Very roomy pack and side bottle slings are deep enough for larger fitness bottles.

    I am the only one at my fitness club with one. I wanna keep it that way! 😎🇺🇸👍

    Stylish and comfortable, but not as spacious as expected

    Overall, I like the bag. I ordered a larger size just in case the smaller one was too small, but the shoe compartment takes up space in an awkward way, so it still doesn’t feel as spacious as I expected. That said, I’m satisfied with the design and how it feels when worn.
