Evening all!
Am in the market for a new duffle bag- sadly missed out on the h4l duffle which looked pretty decent.
Wondered if anyone had any opinions on which one to go for?
These look decent:

The New Balance offering looks cool and big,but not much info on it:

This one is not quite as cool,Brand-wise etc,but good value!

Don't really want to be spending anymore than £60 on a duffle by the way! Any suggestions welcome!
Cheers guys,

Don't overlook Uzi's own. It ticks a lot of boxes.

Best bag I’ve seen so far is the kook d2 pro duffle, looks much better in the flesh, and really well laid out. Your pads go in the side pockets, so decent room saving!!

That actually looks pretty decent,thanks!

I have a h4l large duffle if you like?

This is the best duffle I've used to date: https://www.gray-nicolls.co.uk/eng/collection/equipment/luggage/predator-3-pro-duffle-bag (https://www.gray-nicolls.co.uk/eng/collection/equipment/luggage/predator-3-pro-duffle-bag)
Don't know what's going on with the GN price but pretty sure I paid £45 for mine last winter! Worth a shop around.

Interesting info that the pads goes into the side pockets. Indeed will create lot of space inside the bag then.

I am tempted by the mandh from their out-outlet store- does anyone have experience of buying from them?
-
Further to that,has anyone tried the pod pro duffle?

Have the woodworm bag, it is huge, two padded bat sleeves, enough room for all my kit + keeping gear, side pockets are full length too.
Can't go wrong at that price.

Cheers guys,does it stand up nicely with space for keeping gear?

Mines stands well. Not sure about keeping gear tbh, but i travel fairly kit heavy and have never come close to filling it. Supernova might be a better bet if you want the extra space.

Still undecided on this! Does anyone own/has seen the new,New Balance Duffle?

Went for the Chase pro duffle in the end.

Saw a IJC review and looked decent enough- good size,side pockets for pads,stands up well,valuables pockets inside- fingers crossed it's ok!

It’s only £52 from Lorimers eBay page if you decide to go for it

Too late she cried- I asked them about it and they said it doesn't stand up well.

@golders they are a decent bag and stand up fine

The Chase or the NB?

The Chase duffle is great
-
Excellent!

Correct me if I'm wrong but all these types of bags are the same. I have a Ton Elite, I bought it about 5 years ago and every 'large' duffle that comes to the market is the same design (albeit with minor moditications). I now use a Slazenger XR. It's the same as the Ton elite just with a few modifications.
I suggest you buy whatever Slazenger produce for next season. Wait for the sale and pick up a large, well made and designed duffle for £20.
Pick up one of their V series bags for nets too. That will be about £6

If you have seen some of the duffle reviews that It's just cricket do,you will see that the Duffles can be quite different. I was after a big and wide one with separate pad pockets,and found it harder than I thought!

Ok guys,so my Chase Pro duffle arrived from Morrants-
Have to say,it's a very good bag!Nice long side pockets,room for betting pads,thigh pad set and arm guard.
Two internal bat sleeves-but only padded on the outside- not an issue really as my keeping pads protect them on the inside. A couple of small valuable pockets on the inside,which is fine. Front pocket for accessories etc,boot tunnel at the bottom.
Inside,apart from the bats,I fitted keeping gear,helnet,and a big bag of about twenty balls. Not much room left at the top for whites etc,so will probably take a separate sports bag for that.
Stands up lovely,looks good,good zips and build quality.
Overall a great bag,big improvement on the GN1000 duffle I had previously.
