Things We Like: Itzy Ritzy Wet Bags

Mom Reporter, Tina Pratt, tried out Itzy Ritzy’s new large wet bags with her kids on their family vacation and loved them! Here's why!

You guys. I have a new obsession. The new Itzy Ritzy “Travel Happens” large sealed wet bag is my new go-to tool in my superhero mom belt! Since arriving on my porch, I have used them daily!

These bags are terrific for travel! Let’s go on an adventure!!

We recently hopped on a plane and traveled to Florida with our kids. On the way down, I packed our toiletries in our new bags, just in case a little sunscreen or shampoo leaked out; better in the wet bags then on my clothes! As we headed to the pool, I had each kid pack their own wet bag with their pool necessities and then loop the handle over their wrist. I jokingly always tell my kids that I am not an octopus and can’t carry EVERYTHING myself. Their new bags gave them an easy way to be held responsible for their things and a place to store their wet swim caps and goggles!

At the beach, I used their wet bags for their beach necessities and our wallets and cell phones; then quickly changed the use for their wet suits and sandy beach shoes. Hello sand in one spot and not all over the floor of our vehicle! The sand was easy to empty out and the wet bags easy to wash out!

Next up, I used our wet bags to travel home with all our wet suits. The kids wanted a few more hours at the pool before heading back to the airport. It was lovely opening our suitcase when we got home to DRY clothes and not stinky damp clothes from traveling with wet suits.

Finally, my FAVORITE use of our new bags … storage for some ferociously smelling soccer cleats! Normally I travel around town with them in a grocery bag and the window wide open to escape the cleat stink. For my son’s most recent tournament, I popped them in the bag and couldn’t smell them on our trip to the fields.

Next up, I think I need a few more AND some of the cute snack sacks! PS – they would make fab additions to any Easter basket! Check out their website for more information at itzyritzy.com.
