I really love my Peanut Ball.... here it is next to another favorite of mine!


Mrs. Mitts was kind enough to purchase one for me in the UK and send it over... interesting how the "Peanut Ball" is printed in a different location then the other picture posted. I did get this years ago now. (it's really beat-up these days)

The lonsdale is next to a 9x6 fighting sports. They must have some big peanuts wherever they make them.

Everybody that has one seems to love it. I can't remember one bad review of it. Must be a great bag.

Lonsdale

Cool. Hopefully the colored bags are the same. I was able to locate and order one. Haven't gotten it yet though. I stand corrected on the seam work though. It appears to still have the vertical stitching panels too.
Does that raised stitching ever bother your hands/knuckles?

Does it have a tag saying where it is made ? London -- I suspect not.

Shot down

Well, I just got an email telling me that they no longer have any lonsdale bags and they can't get them anymore.
They are suggesting that I step up to a cleto Reyes bag for an additional $25. The lonsdale bag was $54 I think with tax and shipping. So basically around $79 for a cleto delivered to my house.
What do you think? They do usually go for $90-100, but are they really worth it? Even at the discounted price of $79?

I love my Cleto XS bag. One thing is certain, the loop will never wear out !

[Dumbcluck]

Cleto

Yes paranday, I see what you mean about the loop. This thing will not fit easily in my deville #13.
I do have a couple of evil swivels on their way to me now maybe ill have better luck there.
The other thing I noticed right away is that the medium size cleto I got is the same size or smaller than my ringside 9 x6 fatboy that I got from Ralph. What's up with that? I thought a medium was 10x7. The lonsdale bag that I originally ordered was 10x7 because I wanted to try a bigger bag and I have a 24" I box adjustable platform so I didn't think an 11x8 would work.
Anybody else experience this?

Everlast 4200

The original Everlast 4200 is one of my favorites, but the new design is a different look and shape, anyone know why that is?

[Dutchman]

Essentially, it's because a few years back the company was sold, and they have outsourced their speed and double end bag production out.

...for years the everlast 4200 gyro was the bag for me (that's some years back) but ever since I got two 4200 kangaroo bags off ebay (these bags are the next level up from the gyro) alittle while back, this bag is my favorite in this size, they are lighter and are made of a better quality leather than the gyro. The funny thing is these bags are older than the gyros that I had but the shape and quality is way better, I'm glad I won the bid on these two bags
