Title: Stand Up Bag
Post by: HudCricketer on August 28, 2013, 09:43:29 PM: Sorry to bother you all but i am looking for a stand up bag, not too big preferably with seperate compartments.
So far i have seen the ayrtek bag, the old gn nitro and the aero stand up (the red one), any reccomendations?

Stay away from Aero they don't seem to last.

I know Paul has had some issues with the lower models, but the stand up tour bag (blur and orange) is fantastic, Manormanic loves his.

It is also HUGEEE. But yes on design alone, Aero will always win hands down.

Just shake it a bit and all your stuff will settle down nicely.

I got called the 'Child Catcher' at my club because, not only am I a teacher, one of our players decided to take all my gear out and put his two 4-year olds in it. ???

Also I struggled to get it in the car... >:(

Post by: Jaffa on September 02, 2013, 03:55:20 PM: I too had problems with the Aero (blue-red) stand-up. Basic design and quality issues.

The thing was overly square and the wheel base wasn't wide/stable enough so with no extension handle it would topple over while pulling it along. Not something you want when you're walking towards the opponents clubhouse.

Would have liked a separate bat sleeve/compartment. If you wanted to put your bat later you had to take your stuff out for it to slide to the bottom.

The side pocket stitching came loose. It looked like the thread had been bleached or something. It wasn't as strong as it needed to be.

Sent it back to sellers shop and it got lost in the mail. Weeks later postage insurance paid some out which was a bonus because I'd already written it off as a bad buy.
