I’m switching banks and feel weird using my old banker bag. Not to mention it’s time for a new one anyway. I’m not looking for anything fancy, just something professional enough to take to the office - doesn’t have to be leather, canvas is fine. Anyone have some recommendations?

Based on the most helpful WSO content, here are some recommendations for a professional yet practical gym bag:
Cuyana Tote Bags: These are stylish, roomy, and can double as a professional work bag. You can also get an insert to keep things organized, which is a big plus.
Longchamp Bags: A popular choice among professionals, these are fabric-based, washable, and durable. They’re not overly fancy but are practical and easy to maintain.
Tumi Nylon Bags: While some users have moved away from carrying bags daily, Tumi nylon bags are a solid option for those who want something durable and professional.
Canvas Bags: If you’re looking for something simple and not leather, canvas bags are a great choice. Look for clean lines and neutral colors to maintain a professional appearance.
If you’re open to gym-specific bags, you might also consider brands like Herschel or Everlane, which offer sleek, minimalist designs that can transition well between the gym and the office.

Timbuk2 makes decent bags, so does Tumi. They're very functional and sleek. I might go for a leather one because they look cool when I go to Italy
