tennis bag

[ptb5021]

in the market for a themal-lined tennis bag. I own Babolat racquets, so i'd like to get one of their 12-packs... but I'd also rather not spend $75-80 on one. I was trying to find a neutral brand, and Pacific has a decent looking thermal lined 12 pack bag for $54. Does anybody use this and would like to comment on it?

A bag is a bag.

Don't sweat over it.

But as Consignere said, a bag is a bag. As long as it holds the racquets it's good to me haha. I have a Wilson 9 pack, if you're interested.

That is a false statement...compare a Wilson K Tour w/a Wilson K Pro Tour, for example.

I have one of the newer Aero line 12 packs, decent bags, rugged.

 

[ptb5021]

yeah, heard the aero lines are moderate bags by most

mantis-sport.com has some great bags for $50

 

[ptb5021]

I bought a Wilson K tour and it sucks. The zippers have all failed multiple times on me. Useless. Picking up a new one today. Would you say that the Pro Tour is higher quality?

(I could give a crap about brand or looks - interested in function here).

Yes, most def. I've the K Tour and K Pro Tour. It's like a night and day. The quality is much better, although not great compared to like a Babolat Aero series, but a major step up from K Tour...

 

[spacediver]

thanks. Would you recommend the babolat aero 6 pack in terms of durability? If so, will pick one up today.

I bought a used Babolat Aero 12 pack bag on the bay about 6 months ago. $20 plus shipping. Good deals pop up if you are persitent in looking.

 

[The_Question]

If I were you, I would do the Aero Pro series...because both compartments are insulated...and from experience, go with a larger bag like a 9 pack or 12 pack...you'll find out you want more room down the road...

The only thing about Babolat is, it only has 2 compartments...that's why I took a gamble went with K Pro Tour Super 6. It has 3 compartments...

Mantis does ship to the U.S. Unfortunately their bags are all sold out right now.

K Tour Pro= Great bag, plenty of room, super durable, sweet looking bag, and comfortable to carry.

I play with Babolats but this bag is better than any of their bags that I have seen.

The Babalot bags are great particularly the aero versions. Very well made. I just bought the Pacific 12 pack - thermal version and so far ( a week) it works fine! Nice size - not huge. Appears to be well built. Good zippers. nice side compartment for smaller items that would get lost in the center. Had a technifibre big bag that was nice but didnt have the thermal lining and the fabric inside had issues. The pacific seems good.
