Your Favorite bag!

[BillyMack]

I would definitely be interested in buying one, possibly two. What makes it custom? Would we get "Speed Bag Forums" or something sewn into the leather? Or some type of embroidery? For that I would def' buy 2. I'm a little too busy these days to head this one up but after a week or so I can look into it

I had contacted thesportsdoctor over a year ago and they had no bags on hand. They told me they hadn't had orders in a while. They were going to make a few 8x5's and send them to me. I never heard from them, and never got the bags. I'd love to try them. The owner, Johnny Golomb is the grandson of the man who started Everlast.

Awesome looking bags but sorry i cannot commit to buying one right now. i used to have a kangaroo skin baseball glove and loved it so these bags are probably very good too.

go to the bottom of this page link, and read the about the "Everlast Legacy" and Johnny's story. Kind of a legend in the glove niche.

OK, since I brought it up..... Called John G. in NY this morning and left a voice mail regarding the purchase of several bags. No sense going further with a count yet until we know if he is still in the bag business. "What makes it custom?" The fact that it is made from kanga's and not cows I suppose.

We'll see what is what (or not) if and when he calls back.

the Roo bag is nice... I wish it would come in a natural leather color - like brown.... like the baseball gloves... that would be sweet !! not to keen on red or blk....
etiher way depending on $$ I am in....

Alan, is there any chance you could contact Mr. Golomb and ask him if he's interested in selling some bags and if so, what his minimum order would be in order to make a batch?

I'd be willing to front the money *perhaps* depending on how many bags were needed and what the cost is. Then I'd sell the bags to anyone on here for cost + actual shipping charges.

I have already emailed him via their email contact address.

It would be great to get a "speedbagforum" bag, but don't sell the other equipment companies short either. You'd be surprised who reads this forum. Particular when they receive emails featuring links to very positive feedback by members here on the forum. Balazs was really excited about this forum's reviews of their I-BOX system. You 'd be surprised what a company might do when their products start getting featured in a positive light.

But when I spoke to Johnny Golomb last year, he was very positive about making several custom "roo" bags for me to try. No doubt he got sidetracked, and I didn't really push the issue as I was heading into a shoulder surgery anyway. By the time I was really physically able to put one onhook, the idea had fallen off my radar also. But ideas never die, they just get postponed.

A bag in a natural past-time brown made from kangroo would be sweet as pie.

My favorite bag is the Everlast 6x4 inch. It's nice and small like a peanut.

First post

I use a bag by Jim Bradley out of Australia ( jimbradley.com.au ) . Nicest one I've found. About a 9 x 6 with the seams stitched on the inside. Good feel, true action and real fast. First bag I had was the 4200 by Everlast but the big seams made it too unstable and twitchy. I use it on a Top Professional Heavy Duty Pro Swivel from Everlast. Jim Bradley has an interesting swivel made from Polycarbon that's really fast too.

wow - this is a nice bag ... roo skin too



but it is $121 AUS - I wonder how much that is in US $$ ? Shipping can;t be that much...

$121 AUS converts to $98.95 USD.

Maybe it's me or the lighting, but that bag looks lopsided?

It appears that the bag and swivel are all one piece in that picture, is that correct?

Nevermind, I went out to the website and saw a better picture and it's kind of an optical illusion. I do like the fact that the ball is so close to the board with that swivel.
