However, with our regular trips to the pool I noticed we have been regularly filling it up so was thinking about getting a larger Bogg bag but am debating it if is worth the cost. I have read in reviews that it is heavy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928306 Wed, 12 Jul 2023 11:14:55 +0000 cake2017 2928306@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lahela017: I have one I use for swim lessons, church and traveling with kids. I wouldn’t buy another one. It’s okay. I like it but don’t love it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928302 Tue, 11 Jul 2023 14:47:12 +0000 Lahela017 2928302@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@LadyDi: haha!!! I even commented on your thread back then, but obviously have no recollection of it. Thanks for linking, I'll read through it now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928301 Tue, 11 Jul 2023 14:25:41 +0000 LadyDi 2928301@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I asked this question a year ago and these are the replies I got!</p> <p><a href="https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bag#post-2926477" rel="nofollow">https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bag#post-2926477</a></p> <p>I ended up getting a huge Scout bag....which I like but hasn't held its shape well so it looks kind of busted. BUT I can fit a ton in it and I don't think the Bogg bag would have been as big as I need. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928299 Tue, 11 Jul 2023 10:16:01 +0000 azbaby 2928299@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I didn't even know these existed! We've just started swim lessons and this would be amazing. How many little pouches do you use? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928297 Mon, 10 Jul 2023 21:37:41 +0000 catgirl 2928297@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Lahela017: oh yeah, I definitely don’t use it for the beach unless I am going on my own. Though, we take a lot to the beach. I do use pouches in it to organize things but I still get annoyed having to sort through them. My current beach bag is super heavy and cumbersome but has great pockets and can hold everything we need. But I figure there is always a trade off.<br /> I think it would be great for swim lessons. I like it when we are going to the playground or park because it stands up on its own and I’m not worried about putting it down on the grass/sand/dirt/whatever. I also tend to grab it if I want to corral things in my car. It stays upright and can sit at someone’s feet </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928296 Mon, 10 Jul 2023 21:12:05 +0000 Lahela017 2928296@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@catgirl: thanks for your review! They look great for swimming lessons, but I'm worried about the capacity for going to the beach or something.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928295 Mon, 10 Jul 2023 21:10:49 +0000 Lahela017 2928295@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Kmomartin: I'm currently using an LL Bean tote for swim lessons now too, and definitely see the appeal of something waterproof. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928294 Mon, 10 Jul 2023 20:04:43 +0000 Kmomartin 2928294@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I kindly requested a Bogg Bag for Mother’s Day from my husband and tiny human, but they picked the color. :wink: I wanted something useful!</p> <p>I saw so many moms at swim lessons with them and honestly was sick of getting my LL Bean Canvas Boat N Tote wet on the bottom (non-washable)! </p> <p>I have literally hosed the Bogg out after the beach and I love it. At first I felt so boujee, but really the bag works well for us. We’ve only had it a few months so I can’t speak about the longevity but so far so good! </p> <p>The Bogg has two clear pouches that come as “pockets”, which is nice because they zip and you can rearrange them on the bag. I also use small plastic pouches for other things I don’t want wet that I bought on Amazon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928293 Mon, 10 Jul 2023 18:18:46 +0000 catgirl 2928293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My mom has a bogg bag that I was intrigued by I didn't think it was worth the price (and my mom doesn't think it is either). But I did see a knock off style one at Sam's Club that I grabbed earlier in the summer when it was on sale. I like it but don't love it. It doesn't feel big enough for all of our things and I get annoyed to not have pockets. </p> <p>This is the bag I have. The quality seems similar to the Bogg bag: <a href="https://www.samsclub.com/p/sportbrella-beach-tote/P03015073" rel="nofollow">https://www.samsclub.com/p/sportbrella-beach-tote/P03015073</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/bogg-bags#post-2928292 Mon, 10 Jul 2023 11:13:05 +0000 Lahela017 2928292@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone have a Bogg Bag for swimming lessons/beach time? Are they worth it?</p> <p>Also, it seems like there are a ton of knock-off versions. Maybe they are good enough...? Anyone have a review for me? </p>
