The Wilson bag does look great. Hoping to get time to head to a pro shop in Atl to compare the two in person.

the head prestige 25th anniversary bag is the highest quality bag I have owned or even felt.

Exactly. Unfortunately I've been advised they are too busy before Christmas so it'll be in the new year. Will post pics when I have some.

Looks like a real high quality bag - curious, is the inside structure any different than the Team Tour?

The inside has no dividers like other head bags

Best model of bag for my needs, fortunately where i live there are a lot of bicycle lanes and this bag is just a perfect built to be used while biking. On the other bags the pad on the belt are moving during the ride, with this model i get a good distribution of the weight on the shoulders and on the back making it very comfortable to carry even for several km.

I am having a hard time deciding between the older Aero line and the Wilson Blue/White Tour - anyone care to shed some insight?

I have yet to see either bag in person.

I normally carry 3 racquets plus shoes, change of clothes...etc. I also would prefer a bag with at least one insulated pocket. Also, do most players trust the insulated pockets? i.e., does anyone leave their racquets in their car all day in hot weather?


Thanks!

If you want to talk about sheer build quality, the Wilson wins. The Wilson bags feels soft/plush, and in some ways "luxurious". And Wilson has ridiculously smooth zippers. I will also say Wilson is better for organization, with its numerous small pockets. The Wilson is also deceptively large.

The Babolat in comparison feels rough/boxy, overall "cheap feeling". The insulated linings are thin and tear easily. But it beats Wilson by offering unique features, such as 2 insulated racquet compartments, and a portable insulated cooler that can easily fit 4 bottles. The Babolat is horrible for organization. It's essentially a big bag with 4 big pockets. It's also deceptively small. 4 racquets is a stretch for the 12pack.

So it comes down to what you want, overall build quality vs. overall features.

I trust my insulated pockets to a certain degree, but definitely not enough to leave it in my car.

Thank you for the help!

I should have first mentioned I was looking into the 9-packs.

A few more posts until 3,000 btw...!

In the 9pack range, features are more or less the same. I'd go with the overall higher quality of the Wilson's then.

Lord knows, you wouldn't want to have a bag with a racquet brand different than your sticks! The horror, the horror...

I have an Adidas Barricade 3-racquet bag, and am pretty impressed with its quality and features.

Why not? I'm using Wilson BLX90 with Babolat Aero 12pack, will my on court appearance cause the next plague?

I guess yet another example of light humor not translating well in the written word. I was joking, hence the smiley face.
