Under Armour Hustle 3.0 Review
The Under Armour Hustle 3.0 backpack is great for those of you that like to walk or ride your bike to the gym. Unlike a duffle bag, this one is easier to carry when on the go. The shoulder straps have padding for your comfort. In addition, it’s not as large and bulky as a traditional duffle bag.
The stylish design is also very versatile. You will have a good number of color choices, so finding one to suit your style is a breeze. Not only can you use this bag for your gym gear but it is a great option to use throughout your daily life. Whether going back and forth to school or packing for a trip this backpack provides a good amount of space.
Heading to the gym while it’s raining isn’t a problem when you go with this option from Under Armour. It is water resistant which means you won’t have to worry about wet gear on rainy days. Obviously, this is an advantage as no one wants to put on wet gloves or shoes for a training session.
When you need to stay organized, the Under Armour Hustle 3.0 has you covered. Most backpacks don’t offer as many compartments as this one.

If you like to walk or ride your bike to the gym, how comfortable your bag is can play a pretty big role. When you pack it full of different pieces of gear and equipment it could weigh you down. So, having straps that are going to sit comfortably on your shoulders is a pretty big advantage. This is especially true if you have quite a long commute.

Breathability
The Under Armour Hustle 3.0 really does not have any features built into it to help promote breathability.
