Shoe Bag Small

Design fail

This is my first negative review of anything, however this bag is such a joke that I feel compelled to at least make others aware of what they're getting. This bag is not so much "size small" as it is "size tiny". I have barely managed to squeeze a pair of size 9.5 Nike Free's in there, one of the lightest and most supple and flexible shoes on the market. Anything larger just won't fit. I honestly thought it must be designed for a single shoe when I first received it. I had to double check the listing just to make sure I hadn't made a mistake. One of the worst design fails from a reputable company I've come across. It's a shame as the quality of the bag is up to usual Sea to Summit standards. It's well made and the materials are light and look to be robust enough, but the size is a glaring oversight and it's a surprise that anyone thought anything other than size 6 ballet slippers would fit without putting undue stress on the zipper or stitching. Better to either consider the size large for a standard size single pair of shoes (very much doubt boots of any description would fit if the sizing between small and large models is comparable), or look elsewhere. Disappointing. Great price. Great materials. Just not even close to being fit for purpose.

G'day Jules,

I'm really sorry to hear that... and having just looked at the shoe bag, I'd feel the exact same way - my US11's wouldn't come close!

I wanted to understand what can fit in the bag, so I've taken a few photos with US6.5 Womens Hiking Shoes - which fit perfectly. Any size bigger than that would need to go up to the large size. I know that this won't help with your situation (& PS you can return your bag) but for anyone else looking, this is really helpful info.

Thanks for sharing.

Cheers, Laine
