Look, is not that awesome?

And seems very practical too.
Now I don't have to worry which brand is my bag and my racquets

Nice but it does not have a separate racket compartment to carry rackets, no? The product description does not say that it does, and in the picture the side compartment looks only wide enough for just one racket.

Looks quite nice. Certainly something different / original. Would like to see how the insides are arranged though and what small pockets it has.

It doesn't have backpack straps...

Another racquet bag to avoid...

Is it just me, or does TWU takes ridiculously close-up shots of their bags that doesn't really tell its customers anything?

What the hell are we supposed to gain from these pictures?

Backpack straps are an overrated PITA. The roomy carry straps are perfectly sized to quickly sling over the shoulder and go. The only dealbreakers for me are the price and lack of side racket compartment

It only takes a few more seconds to put on a bag that has a backpack strap.

If your racquet bag is heavy, the amount of weight is placed on your shoulder which causes aches and possible injury.
I do agree if the amount of space is not enough for a bag, it's not for me.

Have to agree to disagree here. Backpack straps make a bag much easier to carry around.

Guys, I just looked it up on a competitor's site and it DOES have backpack straps. They are on the bottom of the bag. I guess TW Europe didn't find that feature important enough to show it.

Edit: they are on the other side not on the bottom of the bag.

I still wouldn't buy it because it's not a Boris Becker bag.

Plus, it's white and the wear and dirt would be blatantly obvious..

That's because they're too busy taking close-up pictures of the bags that leaves you wondering: "where the hell is that on the bag?!"

From the pic, there is what looks to be a narrow single racket compartment on the side yet the TW description does not indicate this. At 90 EUR (USD $120) I wonder who it will sell to? It might take Rafa or Fed to shift these and if so, they'll walk onto court with laughably even bigger Nike duffles/man-bags than they normally carry.

Oh come on, you are being jealous of us Europeans, who get all the nice things ahead of you

Why would you need to worry? I have a Pacific Basalt X bag (very nice), with Dunlop racquets. All I care about is the quality and utility of the bag.

Strange that there's no mention of racquet compartments....

> Tennis bag
> Large main compartment with zipped internal pocket
> Ventilated shoes compartment with outer mesh pocket
> Insulated cool pocket
> Zipped accessories pocket to side
> Dual carry handles to top
> Cushioned, adjustable shoulder strap
> Backpack carry system with adjustable shoulder straps
> Nike Swoosh
> L77 x D35 x D24cm

L77, more than enough for racquet covers.
