The bag has large mesh panels to help air out your gear without unpacking it. I left everything in it overnight after a late game to test it, and even my gloves and skates were dry, so it really works for that. Looking forward to using it in the summer when I stay after for tailgating and out of town tournaments when the bag goes right in the car for the drive home. Beyond the mesh, it’s well-designed. Holds all my gear with room to spare. It has dividers to keep everything organized. Even comes with a little cooler sleeve for bringing a couple pops. Really glad I decided to go ahead and get this bag.
