ICON Series Adds Bags for Kick Pedals and Sticks; Red Snare Bags Return

Gator Cases has expanded its ICON Drum Series with new storage solutions for bass drum pedals and sticks, continuing to build out coverage for essential drum hardware and accessories. The update also marks the return of red snare drum bags, first introduced as part of the company’s 25th anniversary collection.

The GP-ICON-PEDALBAG accommodates two single pedals or one double pedal with linkage, with an adjustable interior divider to keep different configurations secure and prevent contact between pedals. The bag’s rugged 1000D nylon exterior, combined with a hard structural layer and thick padding, helps protect against impact during transport. A reinforced carry handle and included shoulder strap support mobility, while an exterior accessory pocket provides space for beaters, tools and drum keys.

Holding up to 16 pairs of sticks up to 17 inches in length, the GP-ICON-STICKBAG accommodates sticks, mallets and brushes in one organized space, including extended-length stick sizes. Internal dividers help keep contents arranged, while a removable stick sleeve provides a lighter option for smaller gigs and can be mounted separately to a floor tom for quick access. When the main bag is mounted, a raised perch positions one pair of sticks and a drum key higher for easier reach, allowing for faster changes during performance. Adjustable mounting clips secure the main bag in place, with additional internal and external pockets offering space for tools and other accessories. A padded shoulder strap, reinforced handles and integrated clips for attachment to ICON Series cymbal bags support transport between sessions and gigs.

The GP-ICON-1455SD-RED and GP-ICON-1465SD-RED snare drum bags fit 14-inch snare drums in 5.5-inch and 6.5-inch depths, with a red exterior that offers a visual alternative to traditional black drum bags for easier identification in shared or multi-drum setups. Multi-layer construction includes a 1000D nylon exterior, reinforced rubber base and thick padding to help guard against impact, while a micro-velvet interior helps prevent scratches during transport and storage. A sloped zipper design with paracord pulls allows for smooth access, and a built-in pocket provides storage for spare drumheads.
