Looking for a MASSIVE duffle bag.
« on: May 09, 2014, 02:23:32 PM »
Title is clear. Got a fairly large rolly but fancy a duffle as sometimes I end up cycling with my kit on my back!

Been looking at the GN 1000 duffle (http://www.allroundercricket.com/cricket-bags/gray-nicolls-cricket-bags/gray-nicolls-duffle-1000-cricket-bag) which has an appealing price tag and, by the looks of things, is quite large.

A review or advice on that bag or any other big duffles people have had or know of is much appreciated. Had a quick look at the M&H CK22 but you never know until you get the thing.

Hi mate,

I got a Ton duffle bag from Vitas cricket for £40 and honestly its the best bag ive ever owned. espescially for the price.

One large pocket which is big enough for Batting pads, keeping pads, Helmet, Gloves both keeping and batting and also a pair of shoes. Has two internal bat pockets in the same section.

Two large Side pockets which I put my towel whites and shower equipment etc...

then a front pocket which I just use for small bits i.e valuables cricket balls handbooks etc....

Would recommend this bag to anyone. Also has heavy duty back plate with good shoulder straps.

It is very similar to the England issue duffle which is spoken about a lot on here.

£40 with postage from Jake and was with me in two days !!

Shamrock duffle bag for £35 posted. Slightly bigger than the GN1000. Holds more in the main section than most duffles

Wow, you make a compelling case. I'll look in to one if you recommend it so highly. I like the idea of the back plate to sort of maintain the structure of the bag

Yeah, I've seen these mentioned a bit. I'll definitely consider it. I went on your website earlier, however I couldn't find a pic of the bag. Any links to one?

In that case, could I get you to reserve me one? Pop me a pm when you've got them in.

Off topic, I was playing in a friendly the other week with some lads I think you sponsor, Castor and Ailsworth. We're back down there for a league match in 3 weeks time (hopefully with a new bag  :D)

Have you seen our offering (B3 Cricket?) - no compartments but just massive and at £20 they are a bargain - in stock and ready to go!

Yes mate, I did consider the B3 but the bag I've got currently hasn't got any compartments, and I fancy one with some little crevasses to stash my stuff in :)

The Ton duffle has also been vouched for quite vigorously by others on this thread!
