The pockets are designed intelligently and make for excellent organization. Works best when you pair with the dividers. Highly recommend this bag!

    Great Quality and Space

    I’ve only been using the bag for a few weeks at the gym, but the space in the bag is amazing and the quality of construction appears to be top notch and extremely durable. I’m looking forward to giving this bag the test of a couple of years of 6-7 days a week of workouts at the gym, and I’m expecting it to hold up.

    Pretty awesome I love it

    Has a spot for almost anything. I kind of wish I went 1 size up but I might just put extra stuff I don’t need it. Many people have asked me about the bag and I know 1 that picked one up.

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 (35L) and the layout.

Most of the materials are the same as used in other King Kong 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 and its length.

The CORE35 (medium) duffel can fit a belt up to 6.3"/16cm wide and 45.7"/116cm long.
The CORE51 (large) duffel can fit a belt up to 6.7"/17cm wide and 45.7"/116cm long.

A lever belt can fit, but you should count the lever into your measurement.

The CORE35 (Medium) will fit size 12 shoes. The CORE51 (Large) will fit size 15 shoes.
