SELF Pick: A Better Gym Bag

Posted by Christopher Reeks · Leave a Comment 

For SELF’s fitness team, finding a great gym bag is better that scoring a designer purse on sale, often because it serves as both. The latest bag on their radar: Morris Terry’s MTX Gym Bag.

Here’s why: by giving children the chance to participate in sports, arts and theater programs. MTX is partnering with HELPS, a local foster agency in Sacramento, California, to fund extracurricular activities for foster children who don’t have the financial means to participate. SELF is committed to advocating and promoting a healthy lifestyle and healthy community, and loves brands that do the same.

The feel-good bag is only $40, so don’t worry about breaking the bank when updating your fitness wardrobe.
