Disclosure: Apera provided me with this bag. All opinions are my own.
Have you ever heard of Apera Bags? I hadn't until one day I saw a giveaway for one on a friend's blog. I have been in desperate need of a gym bag for quite a bit. I contacted the company and told them that I would love to try the bag and write a review if I like it. They agreed and sent me this beautiful bag! I have used it for everything. I am currently in the process of moving, and I use it all the time to take items from one house to another. It is the best bag ever!
From Apera:
Isn't it Ironic?You're inspired to live a healthy and active lifestyle. You exercise. You pay attention to what you eat. Ultimately, you strive to take care of yourself. However, something is missing. Something important.

Consumers Are Raving
"After spending countless hours (read: days) trying to find the perfect gym bag - I stumbled upon Apera a few months ago. In this bag they have really thought of everything I didn't know I wanted but now couldn't live without. After using this bag for a while, I was in an athletic store and was looking at the standard sports-branded gym bags - the quality just doesn't come close. I think is stuck with me for good!" ES NYC

ReplyDeleteI no longer really need a gym bag because we have a home gym but these would be perfect for travel where I could keep my books, water bottle, phone, keys, etc. in. Never heard of this company before, off to look at the site.
Since i do a lot of gym work outdoors with my daughter, i typically have a gym bag in a bike cart or under the jogging stroller that contains my water, towel, snacks, wipes.
ReplyDeleteLove the Apera bag. It is amazing how much stuff you can fit in it.
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to find a bag I can use for running gear and work stuff since I commute 4 hours a day. I want to start running once or twice a week on my lunch break, so I need to be able to lug an outfit and shoes on those days + my work laptop, etc.
ReplyDeleteI put just about the kitchen sink in my bag! :)
