Save **YOUR** Money.....

Long story short, The zipper ripped on mine a while back and the bag just fell apart. I didnt get half a season out of it. CS was spot on telling me they were having a problem with them, and they would be glad to send me another one. I waited for 3 weeks to receive it. Less than two weeks after getting the new bag it ripped again. Anybody in the market for a roller should look else where and save some cash. They're not worth the money. :mad:

Second on the IDP. We got one used for a serious travel baller (Speedo if anyone knows him) and it was well worn in. We had a problem with one zipper on the small side pocket but other than that its been great. At least a year or 2 more use in it.

My IDP roller has a spot worn through on the butt end about the size of a half dollar after three tournaments.

My black ops roller has lasted a year and a half and still looks great. Only complaint would be the straps on th zippers come off too easy.

Does it still have the built in shelf/flap at the top like the IDP1 has?

the first 'edition' have this problem. the latest release of IDP has a tougher rubber skin on the bottom to prevent this.

my first IDP i bought used and after one season it had that hole start to rip through it. bought my second IDP(after selling that one cheap to a friend) new and it's been great. i try not to drag it around(that motion when you go to stand it upright against the fence) but i'm not going to say i'm good at avoiding that. i just like the size, it's a good size bag to keep you a little more sane on what you carry around with you

I've had mine a few months play league a few nights a week and some tourneys black ops hasn't fallen apart at all. No tears, issues with zippers, or wheels locking up. My complaints about it are the wheels aren't very durable and the middle compartment needs a built in shelve but the construction and durability of the bag are nice.

Recurring themes in softball is buying bats from bat companies, gloves from glove companies, balls from ball companies, and shoes from shoe companies in order to get the best products. Otherwise you're likely just buying a name on a me too product.

love mine still no issues but yes wheels are kinda annoying!
always 4 bats in it and loaded up 2 gloves, 2 pairs of shoes, worth pitching helmet and other random crap we keep in bags.
cross this bag with the No Errors wheels and you have the best bag ever made.

Agreed. Though I think the valuables pocket should be more than just a mesh zipper pocket but that's ok I can deal with that.
