Arghhhh my GN 1000 duffle has torn!
« on: January 10, 2015, 12:22:24 PM »
As the title suggests...thought I'd check out the current state of my kit, picked my relatively new GN1000 duffle bag up and it's torn next to the main zip of the main pocket. I'm not a happy bunny.

Has anyone succesfully sewn one of these back together?

When did you get it? And from what retailer? There have been a few cases of stitching failure/tearing on the GN1000 (mine has survived the testing rigours of this season but a few other people haven't fared as well)

Bags have a year warranty and GN are pretty easy with returns, approach the retailer and go from there.

Can't recall exactly but should be under a year ago, I seem to recall it was from Prodirect cricket when they had an offer on. Will do some checking...cheers!

How much did you pay for this?

Frooper, please let me know, mine has done the same.  I purchased mine from prodirect when they were on offer at £25 in april last year!

Mine's done the same, in 2 places - the helmet compartment and the pocket on the front. Plus one of the straps has come loose and one of the zip toggle things has come off. Thinking about getting a Kook duffle instead.
