Ton duffle is nice and well priced. Blankbats duffle looks interesting too.

oh well CK22 being delivered on Tuesday. If it's no good I'll offload. How much for the Shamrock duffle?

I have just bought a CK22 duffle from Uzi sport today. I compared it to the GN 1000 and thought it was a far better build quality. Anyone who thinks it is a crap product possibly hasn't seen one. It is well made, very spacious and looks pretty good. I just packed it ready for the weekend and it easily fitted the following. 2 bats, pair of pads, 2 pairs of gloves, pair of shoes, helmet, whites and a towel.
The only issue would be that it doesn't have a small pocket to put phone, wallet and keys in. Other than that I reckon it is excellent and great value for money at around �40.
It is also smaller than my T2 wheelie bag that takes the same amount of kit.

I've had my M&H CK22 duffle for 2 weeks now, it's huge. The left side pocket I fit all my batting gear in (excluding bats), pads, thigh pad, helmet and my Musiri helmet bag which contains several pairs of gloves, inners, knee supports etc etc. I store 2 pairs of boots in the bottom pocket at the front, which my clothing sits on top of in the main section and 2 bats in the bat holders, there is still loads of room left in the main section, reckon I could get in another set of clothing in. The right hand pocket i reserve for my dirty whites/towel and store my wash bag. It feels really well put together, the zips appear strong and durable and its dead easy to carry and it stands up, which is not always the case with duffles. I've had 2 previous duffles and this is my best so far by far. It looks great too!

This might be a bit unrelated, but in Australia you can't see any duffle bags in store or online in Australia. Could be that Australians don't need one and that there is no market as there is less traffic and more parking closer to the ground/net. Anyone know why there aren't any in Australia? Just curious.

No idea, I prefer them to pull bags. I was in OZ a few years bag and didn't notince any difference from going to a games there and here in the UK. Sounds like an untapped market

I have just ordered myself a CK22 Duffle, By the sound of things it might be too big. I just wanted one to fit one set of pads and kit in with whites and a towel. Rather than taking a smaller duffle and a holdall bag.

I was given a County triumph duffle last year which meant I also had to take a holdall, hence why I bought the CK22. it's big but very easy to carry and store.

Last couple of years I've had 2 different duffles first a boom boom that was rubbish, then a slap that was ok just abit small with the more gear you buy, so got myself a ck22 and it's the business loads of room all big pockets and very comfy to carry its great bag for sure and also looks better then the gray nic's one, would definitely recommend it to anyone

Well just received my Duffle bag and very impressed with what i can fit in it possibly the biggest duffle out there and cheapest.

It does what it says n the tin it is well made but no thrills no pockets or sections just one big rucksack with drawstring top great for coaches too..

Bigger than most big bags �20 quid too

Had a Salix duffle last season for netting with. But it's a bit basic compared to some of the duffles this year.
My top three would be the England duffle, the CK22 or the GN1000. I mamanged to get a GN1000 for my Birthday as it was purchased when they were at the �25 crazy sale price (BARGAIN!)
And I'm so impressed with the space, the pockets and the fact that someone seems to have actually given the planning some thought!

Greg Chappell Cricket Centre have GM 505's for $40, picked one up at the weekend, not too shabby for the price....

I think it's each to their own on kit. My view on duffles is that once they get to the size where you can stow bats completely inside, you are losing most of the advantages of portability, whilst adding the disadvantage of limited accessibility.
I must admit I initially bought the BB duffle just to go netting with, but the advantage of its relatively small footprint, ease of portability and very good storage space for its size totally sold me on it.
