Cheap bag
« on: February 03, 2013, 09:01:03 PM »

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
