Slightly off topic but..gym bags...any ideas?

[wooly31]

So, I use the gym 4-5 week and usually shower there. My bag is an over the shoulder one but it's deep, no compartments and a bit small. I hanker after a pretty, compact bag. Big enough to take a towel. Easy to find a lot of products like shampoo in. Also easy access for gym card, car keys, pad lock.
I really don't want a large synthetic www.kitlocker.com/nike-football-bags/nike-club-team-medium-duffel-bag-black/black?gclid=CK6tsbCBlL0CFZShtAodzFMARQ but that sort of shape, smaller, bit funkier. Under £40 maybe??!! Have any of you found the holy grail of the practical, compact chic bag or should I be in style and beauty?

Thanks so much for any ideas!

Idea - buy a micro fibre Lifeventure towel from Snow & Rock, they dry as well as a big one but are teeny-tiny and will therefore allow you a wider selection of bags. They also dry really fast. No, I don't work for them! Cath Kidston sale usually has some good toughish bags.

That is a good idea- I have a microfibre one for my hair and they do dry v quickly. I'm a bit resistant to the Cath Kidson print and the quality isn't great- but some of the styles and sizes look about right. Thanks (and they're wipe clean!)

I got a Kelly Holmes one from tesco for £12- separate bits and bag for wet things. Might be worth looking.
