    I love that bag, especially the smallest one. But mine burst a seam. At that price point I want something that will last.

    The Everlast Kangaroo has a great feel and rebound. Makes most other bags feel dead.

    A few other members here have bought them, have they held up well for you?

        The kangaroo leather seems very durable, the seams have held up for me so far. the kangaroo bag is very light weight, and pretty fast. my only problem is that mine is a little lopsided.

          The Kangaroo leather doesn't crack, the bag I got had a good shape, but I think the fancy stitching should be dropped, instead go back to the welted design. Don't know if that would affect the feel.

          MsDeville had I think the 9x6 Everlast Kangaroo, but she got a lopsided one, and had to send it back.

          I think the Everlast Kangaroo has the potential to be a great bag, but they really need to get the quality issues sorted. I'm tempted to buy another one, I liked it too much to do without one.

                hi Ralph ,getting a lopsided bag sucks. out of like 30 bags i received 3 or 4 lopsided i sent them all back and received new ones. for the money everyone spends this should not have to happen.

                i will try the mink oil product you suggested thank you i appreciate it.
