Compact Travel Shoe Bag*
This bag allows you to carry your shoes in modern style.

Made of 600D Polyester. It's time to replace your old-fashioned shoe bag. This bag's modern design allows it to be carried as tote to the gym or for traveling. Outside pocket holds phone and incidentals. Mesh trim at bottom lets bag breathe. Top handle and detachable shoulder strap. A great bag!
Most shoe bags are a bag with a string through the top, and everyone knows how that ends: shoes in one hand, phone in the other, nothing sealed and nothing breathing. The Compact Travel Shoe Bag is built as a proper tote instead. At 15"W x 11"H x 4 1/2"D it is shaped for shoes rather than around them, deep enough for cleats, heels, dress shoes or trainers, and flat enough to slide into a suitcase beside the clothes rather than on top of them.
The mesh trim along the bottom is the detail that earns the bag its place. Shoes that have just come off a court, a course or a dance floor need air, and the mesh lets the bag breathe rather than sealing everything in until Monday. The outside pocket holds a phone, keys, a parking pass or the socks you nearly forgot, so nothing has to be carried loose. Then there are two ways to carry it: the top handle for a short walk from car to clubhouse, and the detachable shoulder strap for an airport, a commute or the long way across a parking lot with a bag in each hand.
Personalization is included with this bag. HansonEllis embroiders it in-house on up to two lines, so a name, a surname or a club and a year sit on the front and the bag is unmistakably one person's. HansonEllis has been personalizing gifts since 1999, and a bag that lives in a gym locker, a car boot or an overhead bin is exactly where a name pays for itself.
Add your embroidery text above, choose your quantity, and give someone a shoe bag they will actually use.

Which one should I choose
A shoe bag is really a choice about what happens to the shoes between the car and the locker.
| Compact Travel Shoe Bag | Choose it when the bag has to be carried and not just stuffed: a tote shape at 15"W x 11"H x 4 1/2"D, an outside pocket, mesh trim to breathe, a top handle, a detachable strap and personalization included. |
|---|---|
| A drawstring shoe sack | Choose it only as a liner inside a suitcase. Nothing breathes, nothing is carried comfortably and nothing carries a name. |
| A plastic bag from the closet | Choose it if the shoes are dry, clean and going nowhere. Otherwise the smell stays sealed in until the next time the bag is opened. |
For anyone who moves shoes around every week, the Compact Travel Shoe Bag is the only one of the three that is still in use next season.
