Bat Bag Buyer's Guide -

A bat bag allows you to carry your equipment in an easier, smarter, and more efficient way. There are many different bat bags out there: bigger, smaller, wheels, no wheels, backpacks, or regular bags.

Basic Features of Bat Bags

With the many different types of bags available, choosing one can depend on your position and how much stuff you carry.

Bags with wheels are a good choice for a catcher.

If you are considering a bag with wheels, know that there are two different types: inline wheels and tank wheels.

Rails on the bottom are great because they can prevent premature tearing and ripping if you are carrying a lot of stuff.

Think about how much stuff you carry. You want a bag that will potentially hold your bats, helmet, glove, batting gloves, cleats, balls, and maybe even some extra clothing.

Choosing the Right Bat Bag

It may seem a little complicated, so we've decided to make it real simple. We have split our bags up into five categories: Beginner, Good, Better, Best and Pro. Beginner and Good are bags that are more youth-oriented while Better, Best, and Pro are geared more toward adults.Just click the heading below for the category of bag that best fits your needs!

Beginner Bat Bags

This level of bag is for somebody who is just starting, and Mom and Dad don't want to spend too much money. But just because it's for a beginner doesn't mean the quality is below average. These are durable, high-quality bags that will hold your young baseball/softball player's equipment with ease.

Good Bat Bags

The backpack style has taken over in recent years because these bags have a reduced size that is great for youth players. They will hold a helmet, glove, and balls, with the bats hanging from the sides. Perfect for your serious rec player.

Better Bat Bags

Backpack or wheeled? Regardless of your preference, you don't have to sacrifice quality or space with any of these bags. Not as big as catcher's bags, but big enough for most players' gear, these bags are perfect for traveling ballplayers looking for durability and carrying capacity without a huge price tag.

Best Bat Bags

These bags are for players who carry lots of gear -- bats, helmet, balls, a couple different gloves, maybe some training items... carry it all in one of these bags with ease! These bags are for very serious travel ball players who are looking for nothing less than a top-quality bag to protect their gear.

Professional Bat Bags

These are the Cadillacs of bat bags, for players who are only satisfied having the best of the best. Have a LOT of equipment? Look no further. These bags will carry it all in style!

This was my first experience with Closeout Bats and it couldn't have been better. Roy was so great and reached out in advance with a potential issue as well as a resolution, before the bat even shipped! I will look at Closeout Bats first from now on before buying elsewhere for my Travel Baller, even though we are in CA and he's in NJ. Hand's down, you don't get service like this anywhere else!

Bought my son a new bat for Little League. The one he wanted was out of stock nearly everywhere but I found one on CloseoutBats. Shipped within a day or so and I received it a few days later. Bat was brand new in the wrapper, no dents, no scratches. Great experience and would keep them in mind again in the future.
