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 (35L) and the layout.

Most of the materials are the same as used in other King Kong 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 and its length.

The CORE35 (medium) duffel can fit a belt up to 6.3"/16cm wide and 45.7"/116cm long.
The CORE51 (large) duffel can fit a belt up to 6.7"/17cm wide and 45.7"/116cm long.

A lever belt can fit, but you should count the lever into your measurement.

The CORE35 (Medium) will fit size 10 shoes. The CORE51 (Large) will fit size 13 shoes. Larger shoe sizes will fit our PLUS Duffel.

    Best Bag Ever (Peace Sign )

    When it comes to choosing a gym bag, there are a lot of factors to consider: durability, organization, comfort, and style. After using the Core Duffle Bag for the past few weeks, I can confidently say it checks off all of these boxes and more!

    Design and Durability: This duffle bag is sleek and stylish with a modern look, and it feels like it is made from high-quality fabric that feels incredibly sturdy. I’ve used LOTS and it’s held up perfectly, showing no signs of wear and tear. The zippers are smooth, and the stitching is strong, ensuring that this bag is built to last.

    Size and Storage: The bag offers the perfect balance of spaciousness and compactness. It fits everything I need for a solid workout: a change of clothes, shoes, towels, water bottle, and even my headphones and personal care products. There’s a separate shoe compartment that keeps my shoes from touching the rest of my gear—an absolute game-changer. I also love the easy-access side pockets for small essentials like my keys and phone, and the interior zip pocket is perfect for securing valuables.

    Comfort: Carrying this bag is a breeze thanks to the adjustable, padded shoulder strap and the reinforced handles. Whether I’m walking from the parking lot or rushing to an appointment, the bag sits comfortably on my shoulder or can be carried by hand without causing any strain. The material is soft yet strong, ensuring it doesn’t dig into my skin.

    Functionality: What really sets the Core Duffle apart from others…

    I go to the gym every day and this duffel is an absolute game changer! Thoughtful design with tons of space. I strongly recommend adding the divider to maximize organization. The Med size is perfect for moving around with you in the gym without being bulky and annoying to others.

    Quality material, great organization, worth the investment!

    Best Christmas present for my son.

    I've had my bag for years and just wanted to pass a great quality bag with enough room for any gym rat, to my son. You won't be disappointed.

    Great bag

    Just the right size, the large would be just too big for my personal taste and usage. Love all the storage and pockets. The cup holders are a fantastic addition I didn't think I would use them so much. There are just so many small things whose addition just make this bag great
