    Has any one noticed any differences in the Everlast bags made in China?

    Hey Guy's

    Could anyone tell me if there is any differences in shape or weight between a 4210,4213,4214 or 4208 that was made in China and the 4210,4213,4214 or 4208 that use to be made in the US?

    Any info would be much obliged.

    I'm not really sure how you would tell the difference. Who knows where stuff is made anymore. It can change in a matter of weeks as cheaper products and manufacturing sites are found.

    I personally get many emails through my site: Speedbagcentral.com from boxing and marital arts equipment manufacturers all over the world, (pakistan, india, china...) wanting me to "consider their equipment for import and sale". Some of these emails also have links to online sporting companies that sell the products they produce.

    I answer by telling them I don't import or sell products.

    my answer is simple. I do not import or sell boxing or martial arts equipment.

      I have an Everlast 4214, it was brand new, still in box when I got it, but it must have been old stock cause on the yellow tag it says made in USA.

      If I was to buy another 4214 say from 'Prime Fighter', brand new, odds are that I'm gonna get one that was made in China.

      My quierie is. How closely does the 4214 made in China duplicate or replicate the 4214 that was made in the US? Reason being, I have a friend that wants a 4214.

        I've been trying to break in a 4202 with much frustration. "Gyro Balanced," it says in pretty gold letters. I have no idea if it being made in China has anything to do with it, but it's not very evenly shaped at all.

        I'm looking forward to hanging my new Rival tomorrow.
