By the fact you have to modify the bag it is evident you did not get what you asked for, or did you buy it thinking "I'll pay $250 for a bag, then add parts from old ones to it to make it last longer"?

You say the manufacturer never gets it right... surely that's the whole point of a custom product - if it's not right, send it back.

For example, If I ordered some samples that weren't made to the specifics I gave the manufacturer then I would expect new samples to replace them made to the correct specs instead (this has happened) - if someone orders a bat at 2.10 but receives a 2.13 is that okay? Sure they could get some weight taken off it and modify it to their needs but that loses the whole point of a custom product.

The worst bit for me about this bag is it will have cost Lekka no more than about $60 max


Reading between the lines, I think the problem was more of a gap in the specs/understanding of the eventual product.


I'd assume the bespoke/single-run bag manufacturing industry isn't as big/mature as others so I don't think it's too fair to compare them.

IM happy with the bag, im the only one who has to be happy. Its my bag which i have got made to the size i want, the pockets i wanted, the colours i want and my name to match my foxes. Anything i do to it is to improve a belter of a bag.
My focus now is on to gloves for my brothers bday.

Thanks mate, not as hard as it looks, is only 2 screws on each wheel and 2 wheel housings
