The Chalk Bag: An Essential Climbing Accessory
Whether climbing crags, multi-pitch routes, or bouldering, a chalk bag ensures dry hands at all times. Worn around the waist or attached to a climbing harness, it should always be within easy reach. On crags, climbers can dip their hands in it during rest points, while in bouldering, the chalk bag can be left on the ground and used only before an attempt.
How to Choose the Best Chalk Bag for Chalk Powder
The choice of a chalk bag is primarily based on its design and colour, but volume also matters. While a mammoth-shaped bag might be fun for short crag climbs, it can become cumbersome during multi-pitch climbs when handling climbing ropes.
For crag climbing and gym use, you can choose any model that suits your style. For multi-pitch climbs, opt for a compact, low-volume chalk bag, while for bouldering, a rigid model that stands upright on its own is recommended to make chalking up easier.
Quick and Efficient Closure System
Almost all chalk bags use the same closure system: a drawstring that locks with a small toggle. While climbing, the bag remains open throughout the session and is only closed when stored in your backpack at the end of the day.
A Wide Selection at the Best Prices on Glisshop
At Glisshop, we offer no fewer than 35 different chalk bags, ranging from simple designs to fun and quirky models. Choose from top brands like Black Diamond, EB, Petzl, Snap, and YY Vertical to find the perfect chalk bag for your needs.
How to Fill Your Chalk Bag
If you use chalk powder (magnesium carbonate), simply refill the bag as needed. For those using chalk blocks, you can place fragments of the block into the bag and break them down over time. Consider adding a chalk ball to your setup. This small, soft fabric ball absorbs chalk dust from the bottom of the bag and dispenses it when squeezed, minimizing unnecessary dust creation.
If you’re into indoor bouldering, you might also be interested in our range of liquid chalk tubes, which eliminate the mess associated with magnesium dust.
