      To be clear the made in U.S.A. is not a xenophobic thing my lime suckin friend. Hahaha. There was a drop in quality when Everlast production went oversees. A wise man(rdshackleford) once said “Beware the China bat” wait no, it was“ Beware the China bag”

        I certainly blame Everlast for the drop in quality. They can spec better materials but I don't believe they care.

              I really don't think there could ever be a top five bags. Changes all the time but as mentioned the Title Perilous seems to be consistently in the mix so there's that!

                So far I have 2 nice bags. Everlast kangaroo hide and balaz lazer. Kangaroo leather is easy on the hands, but the Lazer is best so far. I plan to get a Jim Bradley next, but the shipping cost is like a space x falcon 9 is dropping it off at the door!

                  1. Everlast MX
                  2. Balaz lazer 8x5
                  3. Everlast kangaroo 9x6
                  4. Cleto Reyes size medium
                  5. Pro Mex Victorian size medium because that goatskin feels good.

                  I would like to also include the size 10x7 everlast kangaroo. I know traditionally large bags are for beginners, but this bag flys and is an awesome workout. I use the title lighting fast swivel, and the bags I’ve listed work great with it.

                    3Dvrmonster, riqal - if you guys like the lazer I recommend picking up there new lightning at some point. It’s got all the great features of the lazer except it is much lighter. Great product.

                      For my hands, Any top five list has to include Roni's bulgarian bags. I have two (Thanks Yanitza Miteva) and they are the fastest per size and the lightest on the hands I've felt since Jim Bradley's. His workmanship is impeccable, perfect shape per size and extremely fast. Yes, they are more expensive and you can buy 3 or 4 other bags for the price of one Roni, but you won't regret it. My only wish is for a slightly thinner attachment loop, but they do fit on my current ball hooks. He prefers to list his bags via Facebook and Instagram. He usually makes one or two at a time or for personal orders. He ships from Sofia Bulgaria and you get it in a week.

                        Perfect, I just ordered one earlier tonight. The Bradley and Ronis were on the top of my list. He is a extremely talented artist and I look forward to trying it out. Couldn't have been nicer too.
