Does your men’s sports bag follow you everywhere? A faithful companion for sportsmen, whether it is a backpack or a shoulder bag, it may not last long if it is not properly maintained. The exterior of the bag is exposed to bad weather, friction and knocks. The interior will accommodate all kinds of accessories, more or less heavy or bulky, even sharp or sharp, as well as your dirty belongings. Properly maintaining your men’s sports bag is therefore a guarantee of longevity.
When using your bag, whether it’s going away for the weekend or going to the gym, it will get dirty. All kinds of dust settle on it, it is likely to be stained, wet, etc.
The important thing is not to leave it as is and to maintain it very regularly:
While it is obvious that maintaining the exterior of sports bags is essential, you should not forget to regularly clean the interior as well, as bad odors can quickly set in.
A men’s sports bag usually contains a spacious main compartment. Proceed as follows to maintain the interior of your men’s bag:
Whatever the capacity of the bag, take care to clean all the interior elements and particularly the shoe compartment. Whether you are carrying special sports shoes (with cleats for example for football or rugby) or a simple pair of sneakers for the gym, be careful with the shoe compartment which can quickly become a nest for germs. Clean it carefully and regularly. Also, don’t hesitate to use a special bag to put your sports shoes in before storing them in the compartment and take them out after a session as soon as you get home.
Note: the shoe compartment of Karkoa sports bags is waterproof and very easy to maintain as shown in this video:
If you want to revive the colors of your bag or simply remove persistent bad odors, it is possible to wash your sports bag occasionally by machine, provided you take some precautions.
Use a low temperature (30°C) or cold program, with a cycle for delicate laundry, without spinning. You can use a washing net to protect your bag during the cycle and put one or more tennis balls in the drum to make cleaning easier.
Once finished washing, carefully dry all metal parts such as closures or buckles to avoid any oxidation. Then let your bag air dry.
Naturally, machine washing is only possible for a fabric sports bag. For a leather bag, only hand cleaning is desirable.
Whether you have a backpack or a shoulder bag, maintaining your sports bag is essential to ensure its longevity. Adopt good maintenance habits and you will enjoy your favorite bag for a long time!
