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 (25L and 33L) and the layout.

Most of the materials are the same as used in other KNKG 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. The CORE33 (Large) Backpack can fit a belt up to 6.3"/16cm wide. The CORE25 (Medium) Backpack can fit a belt up to 5.9"/15cm wide.

And yes! Lever belts will work with this bag.

The CORE25 (Medium) Backpack fits shoes up to size 10 US mens trainers/runners comfortably. The CORE33 (Large) Backpack fits up to size 13 US mens.

This backpack is designed for serious lifters who crave serious organization.

    Fantastic Bag!

    I’ve been looking for awhile for the perfect bag that accommodates what I need to go from office to gym or vice versa. I’ve purchased adidas, Nike, Gymshark and others. Nothing has lived up to what I’ve needed until my KNKG Core bag. I can store all my things AND it conveniently holds my lift belt without sacrificing bag space. It’s the final boss of gym bags.
