What are swimming bags?
Swimming bags separate wet costumes and towels from dry clothes. Mesh panels let damp kit breathe, and waterproof linings stop water reaching the rest of the bag. Swim clubs and schools order them in club colours.
They are mainly bought by sports academies & stores, schools, gyms & fitness studios and retailers, for gym & fitness and sports teams & academies.
