Well Well Well,
After a couple of lengthy delays, I was just on my way out the door to go and do my weekly coaching before pre-season training and a DHL van arrives on my door

So in the box below is my "one off" bag which i designed and drew up the dimensions.
For those who need reminding the bag is 110*55*48 (all in cm)

More photos to come

Enough of the suspense..let's do an unboxing video review

[Six Sixes Cricket]

Obviously disappointed then!

[Fearless Fly]

Not disappointed at all mate im stoked with it, just had to go and earn some doe! full review and pics will come later this evening after training and coaching

From what you've posted, this bag clearly doesn't exist, you've just had an empty box delivered!

Very expensive custom made cardboard box from what I can see

[smilley792]

The box doesn't look like it can fit any kit in. No zips on the one entry point.
No carry handles.
No wheels or luggage handle.
Poor colour


Dissapointed in your new bag.

Hello Everyone,
Sorry i took my time copped a knock at training and been icing me knee for an hour and have not moved but now i am here, i see you all loved the cardboard box which did make me laugh.

SO without anymore waiting here is my bag,















The dimensions are exactly what i asked for (110/55/48), the colours are amazing and the stitching is first class.
I wasn't quite sure how it was all going to go with the size, it is massive the photos don't really do it justice.
There are some issues which i have found quite early with the bag however...its not perfect.
There are only 2 wheels on the back of the bag. It really needs 3 if not 4 as the back did wear on the little outing it got to training and coaching this evening in AUS.
It is with this that I have decided to put 2 extra wheels on myself. I ripped apart my old club bag (I have changed clubs) and saw how it easy it will be to put the extra wheels in.
The material still looks first class and the Digi Camo has come up very well.

Has plenty of space as can be seen. The picture with the gear all in has 3 pairs of mens pads, 3 bats, helmet, shoes, strettons, another shoe bag with bat care stuff and 3 pairs of gloves and it can take more.

I am also going to take the lining of my old bags and make some plastic walls to make this bag like a soft coffin, pliable enough to fit in my car boot (yes it does actually fit!)

SO this is my bag and my bag only, not one that can be mass produced as there is so much involved, the delays weren't great but religious festivals take priority in that part of the world and rightly so.

Thank you for reading. Still weighing up the possibility of a video, depends how my knee is

Why did you get custom bats logo printed and why is it taped up?

[WalkingWicket37]

Did James mind putting the CBF logo on here as we all know how much he likes us?

[arsenal123]

Is this a repost?  I swear I remember seeing this ages ago?  And there being some sort of row about using CBF on the bag.

De je vu?

And, I don't like the bag at all sorry.

[smilley792]

Wait? What? Someone kicked off cos it says cbf on it?

[mini998]

I thought this was a different bag , but seems not..

yes admins didn't like the fact that he had the site logo in the bag without permission from the owner.

Confused now, is this the same bag you were talking about back in July ?

[Neon Cricket]

Well when it's a bad made by the one man who spends all day slagging off the forum I think the forum has every right to raise an eyebrow or two.

With regards to the bag itself it's not to my taste, bit too much going on! How much did you pay for it out of interest?
