After considering this bag for quite a while (I really didn't NEED a new bag) I finally bought this bag. My wants were:
9-12 racquet bag
Thermo
Very well made with appropriate/useful pockets
A bag you don't see everyday
The Fischer seemed to fit the bill. Let me start by saying this thing is bullet proof. I will be tired of this bag LONG before it wears out. In fact I can't imagine ever wearing it out. Everything about this bag is sturdy; from the material and zippers to the straps and handles. This bag exudes quality. It is a MUCH better looking bag in person than it is in the pics. It is well designed, stiff, and BIG. It has two thermal compartments on each side that will easily hold 3-4 racquets in each one, and a middle compartment that runs the length. There is also a smaller pocket on one side for cell, iPod, change, wallet, etc. It has no separate shoe/wet clothing compartment, but it does come with an extra bag that will do the same thing. I actually like this better. I only carry three racquets so I put all three in one of the thermal sides and change of clothes, shoes, jacket, socks, etc. in the center. I like to use the other thermal side for drinks, towels, overgirps, etc.; anything that I might need during a match. Let me add that the thermal material does help to keep my drinks cold, I like that a lot. It also balances very well either on one's shoulder or as a backpack. The shoulder straps (which are very sturdy and comfortable) also snap on and off very easily so that I can store my wrist bands outside the bag.
On a scale of 1-10, I would rate this bag as a 10. I can tell that much thought went into the design and material of the bag, and I would not change anything. I will say again, this is a big bag; so unless you want a big bag I think for most people, the 6-combi will be big enough.

On a side note, this bag looks VERY similar to the Babolat Team Line Roddick 12 Pack Bag, and very well may be the same bag. If you want the quality without the originality, the Babolat might be a better deal for you. However, I would gladly pay another $20 to have a unique and unusual bag. When I go to a tournament, I don't see a Fischer bag every time I turn around, and I like that.
I hope this helps someone with their decision.
