Head Bags

How is the quality of the new Head bags compared to other brands? I'm currently interested in Head Tour Team '04 Combi 6 Pack and Head Liquidmetal Collection Combi 6 Pack. Anyone have experience with either of the bags? Thanks.

I currently have the original Head Liquidmetal Radical combi bags. This bag is well built. Strong handle and straps.

I went to Dick's sporting goods this weekend and saw the new Liquidmetal Radical Competition collection(04). This bag did not seem as strong as the older bags. The sides were not padded like the older combi bags and the straps and handle did not seem as strong. I'm not sure if this is the same for the new Combi bags. It was very light though. What I liked about the bag was the dimenesions. Not too big, but big enough to fit what I needed. I was able to fit 3 racquets in the outside racquet compartment. The main comparement also had alot of room. You can fit another 5 racquets in there if you wanted. It also had 2 wet/shoe compartment(one on each end of the bag). I just wished they padded the sides of the bag. At least in the racquet compartment. I also emailed Head asking about the Liquidmetal collection(blue/grey bags) about the paddings and he also stated that these bags are not padded as well, but he wasn't sure.

I think wilson bags are better built, but I like the design/dimension of Head bags more.

I would also be interested to know if the new Combi bags have padded sides.

Thanks for the comments player. I ended up buying the tour team 2004 combi. Very nice looking bag imho. I don't think the images on tw do it justice. The bag also stands up straight which my old Head Intelligence bag failed to do. The durability looks ok but I really can't say for sure. I love the large pocket on the side and there's even one on the bottom of the bag. Overall I'm very satisfied with the bag and I would recommend it to anyone else.
