We like to think so. Gym bags are not just for going to the local fitness center, as many offer room enough for weekend trips and the like. Modern gym bags tend to be TSA-compliant, so you can use them as a carry-on when necessary. Some also offer a laptop compartment or laptop sleeve, exterior pockets, zipper pockets, backpack straps, internal pockets, shoe pockets, and side pockets for water bottles, sneakers, snacks, and the like.
