Ares got a new gym bag recently, so I want one, too! Which is why I got the NIID ST@TEMENT S6 that has been selling like hotcakes on Kickstarter. It's made it's way from California to Taiwan, and has since started crowdfunding on ZecZec in early March.

Fashionable Gym Bag—NIID ST@TEMENT S6: Easy to Clean

The NIID ST@TEMENT S6 is a practical and environmentally-friendly gym bag, made of recycled polyester (eco-poly). Its water-resistant material provides protection for your belongings, even in the rain.

Take myself for example, I like to ride my bike everywhere unless it's pouring rain. When I wear my fabric bags everything gets wet. If I wear a leather bag, I feel heartbroken when the leather changes color or gets damaged, and it would eventually allow water to seep inside. But with the S6, I can confidently go out in the rain without worrying about my things getting soaked.

Another thing that I love is that the surface of the NIID ST@TEMENT S6 gym bag is easy to clean. Simply wiping it with a wet cloth or tissue removes dirt and stains, keeping it looking fresh. I'm usually hesitant to buy light-colored bags, but with the S6, I don't have to worry about stains. I dropped chain and my bag touched the greasy bicycle chain, leaving black oil stains everywhere, but they easily wiped away.

Additionally, the material of the NIID S6 gym bag doesn't snag like fabric bags and is resistant to scratches. When I work out, I could get pretty careless with my bag. With S6, I am allowed to be carefree, carrying it on my back or placing it on the ground without worrying about damaging it.

Fashionable Gym Bag—NIID ST@TEMENT S6: Spacious with Compartments

Exercise is an integral part of modern-day living, and fitness enthusiasts need to carry the necessary equipment with them. The NIID ST@TEMENT S6 sports bag boasts a user-friendly design, with a spacious storage compartment, and a simple yet stylish design that is convenient and practical.

The S6 sports bag has a vast storage capacity of 15 liters, enabling easy storage of daily necessities such as water bottles and snacks. I even used it to carry a whole set of massage gun for post-workout relaxation, and sneakers with cushioning can be easily accommodated as well. The main compartment also features a small zipper pocket on the side to store smaller items, making it easy to locate them without the hassle of searching through a large bag. I found it convenient to store hygiene products and hairbands.。

In addition to the spacious middle compartment, both outer sides of the NIID S6 have zipper compartments that can hold a change of clothes. This eliminates the need to carry an extra bag, and the water-resistant material inside and out creates separate dry and wet compartments, which is an essential function for gym bags. The compartment on the other side can hold commonly used items such as phones, keys, and Bluetooth earphones, making them more easily accessible without constantly rummaging through the bag.

Fashionable Gym Bag—NIID ST@TEMENT S6: Transformable & Functional

The NIID ST@TEMENT S6 sports bag is a versatile gym bag that can adapt to different occasions. It comes in 2 forms and can be worn in multiple ways. With the shoulder strap, it can be worn on the shoulder or as a cross-body bag; or carried on the shoulder, by hand, or forearm without it. I find the cross-body option particularly useful when riding my bike and hiking, while carrying it by hand gives off a stylish and casual vibe, perfect for everyday use.

The bag's features also include Anchor Points—slide-lock buckles on the sides and bottom—allowing you to transform its shape easily. Unbuckled, it is a duffle bag with 15-liter capacity, perfect for carrying many items. When extended and filled, its 3D trapezoidal shape looks bold and stylish. Buckling it creates a flat oval-shaped sling that looks cute and light-weight, with a 7.5-liter capacity, it's still sufficient for daily use.

Another highlight of the NIID S6 bag is the semi-hidden storage space formed by the back of the bag when the buckle is fastened, providing convenience for storing additional items. As the bag is water-resistant, the semi-hidden storage space is ideal for holding foldable umbrellas, protecting your clothes and the bag's contents from getting wet.

Fashionable Gym Bag—NIID ST@TEMENT S6: Stylish Design

The NIID ST@TEMENT S6 is a stylish gym bag that is very easy to pair with different outfits. It comes in three colors: gray, black, and white. Under the recommendation of their LINE editor, I went for gray, which is a unique color for gym bags, and I was told that the gray S6 is very bright and lively.

Despite my initial concerns that it might look dirty, the gray turned out to be cool-toned and even had a grayish-blue hue in person, and even appears aquamarine (light blue) under light. As someone who loves shades of blue, I am delighted with this color choice!

Whether paired with sportswear or skirts, the S6 can be worn in different styles. The versatility and stylish appearance of the NIID ST@TEMENT S6 sports bag make it not only functional as a gym bag but also a versatile accessory for daily life.
