    Here's my beloved first Kangaroo Everlast. It had a good shape, but bust a seam after a few months of bagging on it exclusively. The leather is not torn at the stitch holes, just the thread gave way. Maybe will have it repaired.

      That's the bladder. Looks almost obscene.

          Here's the 9x6 Everlast Kangaroo I got earlier in this year. This bag has a much better shape than the smaller one I got the other day.

            In the photo on the left, look at how crooked the valve is, and look how the one side is a strange shape.

            The photo on the right shows a twist at the top. Like Bob Vila rehabbed a house while drunk.
            Thanks for the pics. That's sad. Certainly doesn't look like a $50 or $65 product.

            Out of round is one thing, but a busted seam is just terrible. I think I'll be holding off on one of these...

              I love the feel of the smaller bag, but cannot recommend it. That kinda sucks.

                Just in case you're interested, I have a rare shot of this bag before you got it....

                This is why I will never hit Kangaroo bags again...

                    The bag is out of round by about 1/4", but this is no different than the famous black and gold 6x4 bag by Everlast. Quality control is needed, this bag is a factory "second", and should be priced like a second.

                    I'm keeping it because I like the way these hit. But the love affair may be short lived. See my next post.
                    I bought one of these and it went back the same day. Weird bag.

                      Questions about everlast kangaroo 5x8

                      Just recieved my kangaroo 5x8....it looks identical to my elite 7x10, no teardrop or sweetspot.....did i get the wrong one by accident? it had a sticker on the plastic bag that said "220801"

                      Doesnt really feel any different than my elite leather either...kinda bummed...
                      i thought maybe everlast did away with the design or something...





                      here it is alongside my elite.



                      any help would be appreciated...
