As a rule I have never spent big on bags as long as there big I generally get them.
My last bag and current is a hunts county clipper I wondering what people think of this bag or anybody had any experiance or recommend monster cheap bags I prefer to buy decent bats and pads and stuff.
It has to be big and I prefer ones with different pockets I normally carry a lot of kit and bigger the better
Also my bats don't go in bags they go in a special box with me to games

I'm very much of the mind that you get what you pay for with the Sports Direct Slazenger stuff. I had 2 incidents last year of people telling me they were off to get the same bag as i was offering, at half the price from Sports Direct in town. Both came to me within weeks with their bags falling apart.
Firstly i pointed out that they weren't the same model as the Slaz bags i stock, showing them the subtle differences in branding (sneaky) and then pointed out the obvious, if you pay £20 for an item (when as a general rule in that product area anything half decent will set you back £50+) don't be surprised when its crap!
Both customers bought a 'genuine' Slaz bag from me.
A clipper is about £45-50 off the top of my head isn't it? I'm sure if you wanted another one we could get it for you at a very good price.
If you want to stretch the budget a little higher, the Maverick from Gray Nics is a brilliant bag. Same split layout as most Grays bags now, not the biggest, but 95x36x44cm is pretty sizeable.

the CJI ultimate special edition is a good bag... massive, and cheapish at 60 quid

Cheers jake I like my clipper indeed but need a big bag for the kit I hold the clipper is struggling I don't like bats in bags they go inter own box it a possibility I have never bought from sports direct but went into a store today and thy had these bags they seemed quite big.
Not to bothered about bags if I totally honest only bit of kit I don't pay much attention too as long as there big enou for my pads and gloves and lids and nick nacks.
I love the old surridge and Albion big bags but none seem to be available there my favourite bags

Another option to consider, should be big enough for your requirements.
-
100x40x40 is the minimum I need jake.
Maybe it time I invested in something to carry my bats is as well but that would have to be padded as hell
-
Hmmm, i reckon another clipper might be your best bet then, unless you take the risk on that Slaz.
Cant speak for the brands i don't stock though.
-
Taken the risk on the slazenger ultimate not a bad bag better than the clipper bag with the pockets and the the different compartments and it feels taller than the clipper
I can fit in 2 set of everything including helmets and pads including a set of keeping stuff my bat fixing and rubber kit 3 pair of boots.
There a small amount left for clothing but I normal take a small clothing hold all
I do not like bats in the only thing I would like is one of them coffins with the top bat padded bat lids
The bag is good for them money or any money
