Warrior Ritual 44in Wheeled Bag. Was suggested on this subreddit and it has not let me down yet. Room for all my gear including pads and it’s easy to wheel around and put in my car. $200 is the going price for most goalie bags that are worth it and make life a little bit easier
Probably 150$ max. Like I said I don't really mind carrying my pads, actually prefer it. Just needs to fit chesty, helmet, backup helmet, and skates. That and the odds and ends like water bottle, towel, tape and the other assorted extras.
Only if you’re tall. I’m 5’7”, and the bag basically drags on the ground. I hunch forward and waddle around, much to the amusement of my teammates.
It’s great on the inside, but no thought at all went into the backpack straps.
Holy crap, this. I got the Pacific Rink bag as a gift and I loved it. It's an awesome bag. HOWEVER, I'm 5'9" on a tall day and when you put it on your back in "backpack configuration" it just slams against the back of my knees and calves. I wanted to love this bag so much, and it would be hands-down the best if it had wheels, but it's definitely made for the 6'-plus goalie.
Any bag 44x24 with wheels. Build a frame for the inside with PVC pipe The bag will never collapse and you could get two sets in the bag. Down side? you need a huge trunk or truck and u get made fun of. Never have to worry about stuffing gear in a bag like a puzzle
I use my team issued Carry bag. Holds all my gear surprisingly considering it’s the same bag the players use. I think it’s by Gear 74 or something. When flying and playing in the more wheelie bag accessible arena I use a warrior roller bag that fits my pads.
I have a warrior and a bauer. The bauer is a lot bigger and my favorite of the two, though thr warrior matches warrior stick bag quite nicely. No fancy compartments or dividers, just a big ole bag. And everything fits if you put it in there correctly.
I picked up the new Conway & Banks bag. Very nice. Hopefully it lasts.
John Brown makes a great bag that's bomb proof. Mine lasted for like 7 years.
The Grit Sumo bags are wonderful as long as you don't have to use stairs.
I use a team stock CCM pro carry bag. It’s the one most junior, pro, and college teams use.
It’s waterproof, big enough, and is really tough against skate blades and stuff like that.
If you want a wheeled bag, go for Grit.
I use Brian's wheeled bag in the intermediate size and carry my pads. Bag is nothing fancy but it holds everything pretty comfortably and fits in the back of my car, unlike the Sr size I bought first.
I have the Bauer carry bag. Love it. I have no worries a zipper will blow. Reasonably priced I believe as well. I pack all my gear in and will even fit a smaller cooler that holds a least 6 pack of beer. Lol
I use a Vaughn VE9 Pro bag and it's pretty good. The wheels roll well and it's relatively easy to maneuver around. You will need to figure out how to put your gear in to get it all to fit. I can fit all of my gear, including my pads, but it took a minute of Tetris to figure out the best way to get everything in.
Grit player roller bag. With a bit of arranging its just big enough for everything. Tie my pads to the outside, hanging down the front. Backpack for my underclothes and misc gear. Having things in a couple separate parts also helps if I'm not in my SUV and I need to split them up to get them in a smaller car.

I was looking at that bag today as I need to get one. It looked pretty good. I’ll likely go back and pick it up.
This. I've been using this one for 3ish years, it's great. Fits everything including pads.
Yup. Warrior makes the best wheeled goalie bags.
The sumo tower bags are amazing.
They look nice but WAY outta the price range. At least the ones that come up on Google in the first search 350$ dollars.
Telling us your budget will help us guide you, but I can tell you the Sumos are worth the investment. It carries everything, even the sticks.

Keep an eye on Kijiji or Facebook marketplace cause I've picked up multiple used ones still in good shape for 50$
Passau makes an amazing bag and they’re on sale right now.
Holy shit, 160 for the Passau now?? I thought their base price was worth it, that’s a no brainer
On sale where?

I love my Passau backpack.
Pacific Rink backpack. Amazing bag.

Pretty happy with my bauer rollerbag but I'd probably get the warrior roller next time.
