A&R Sports Deluxe Skate Bag

Returns will cost you $50. Embarrassingly large logo that won't fit on a phone or a water bottle. This bag appealed to me because of the positive feedback it had received. I was a little let down when I first got it. The bag was simply enormous, which I would have overlooked because more space is never a bad thing. But then I noticed that obnoxious logo, which didn't appear in any of the product images. What is the reason for its colossal size? I'm not sure how I'll be able to hide it. I don't mind logos, but this one is so large and unsightly on the side that it prevents my phone from fitting into the small pocket. The pocket, I assume, is for old cellphones. I have an iPhone 8 and I was able to fit it in there even without a case on. The water bottle mesh thing isn't going to fit a water bottle in any way. It's just that it's a little too long and narrow. When I simply chose to return it, the worst thing happened. It costs $13 to get picked up. I don't recall ever being charged for returning a product. That's less than half of what I paid for the bag. I was extremely disappointed. It was a horrible experience.

The first week of November, we placed an order for three of these, one in silver, one in blue, and one in teal - Two are for my daughters, and one is for me. We take these skaters to our neighborhood rink twice a week on average - My husband carries a duffle bag with him everywhere he goes. Two of the three handles ripped completely away from the fabric around four months for one and six months for the other. To keep them usable, we had to cut a hole in the fabric with scissors and thread the strap through, tied in a knot. I really liked them at first, but they didn't last long. One is still usable, but it is ripping in the same spot where the strap connects to the bag. Based on reviews, I paid around $100 for these bags. I hope this is helpful, but if I had it to do over, I would have purchased some more durable duffle bags like my husband's. Even though it's an older duffle, it's still in good shape.

My 10-year-old daughter takes ice skating lessons and has progressed to the point where we purchased her own skates rather than renting them from the Iceplex, so she needed a way to transport them to and from lessons. I bought this for her as a Christmas present a little over a month ago, and she's only used it to transport her skates to TWO lessons (once a week since she returned from vacation). And, as another reviewer pointed out, the bag is already falling apart, with the fabric pulling out of the seams from the edges. We'll keep using it for the time being, hoping it doesn't get any worse, but we'll replace it with something more durable (hopefully). I realize it's a cheap bag, but it should last at least a month. We were able to use the cardboard box in which her skates arrived for three months for free!.

I like the variety of sizes and colors available. To the creators of this product, thank you. ALL stitching needs to be beefed up. PLUS, if you continue to market the Phone pocket as a "phone" pocket, you should upgrade it. is to keep extra laces in it, as two pairs fit perfectly. My phone, as well as my 2-year-old daughter, would never fit in that pocket. There have been three previous phones! Quad skates also have a larger footprint, as well as torked skate pockets. It does the job, but it wasn't designed to hold that much width in each pocket. Furthermore, each skate pocket's bottom should have a thicker (but still playable) base to relieve stress on the thin stitched seams. I know it sounds like I'm whining a lot for a 4 star review, but the sample and basic design are excellent for their size - It only requires a few tweaks to become long-lasting and epic. Hopefully, the developer will get ahold of the item and revise it! I'd be willing to pay more for the updated item! IF it corresponded to my gripes!.

The stitching, webbing, and completely cheezy drings and strap did not last six times of carrying before the strap webbing ripped loose and a seam came apart; size eleven roller skates were too much for this wimpy little cheapest component made bag. This was a replacement for one that shattered the first time it was used.

There is a size and shape difference, and if you don't know the difference, you will be disappointed. Now for the bag, it's perfect for roller skates because it fits each one comfortably and has plenty of room for pads! The bag arrived on time and appears to be exactly as described and pictured on the website.

For my son's rollerblades, I purchased this bag. The strap on his skate bag snapped the first time he used it to transport his skates to the rink. The company was extremely helpful and promptly dispatched a replacement. This time, the new bag held up for three uses before snapping in the same spot. I can't recommend this bag for blades because he's dissatisfied with it.

The shoulder strap crosses both sides of the bag, making it difficult to carry on my shoulder. When loaded with skates and skating accessories, the bag feels incredibly awkward to carry. I bought this for my daughter initially because of the low price, but after seeing how poorly it carried, I gave in and spent $200 on a ZUCA rolling bag and metal frame for her. Although $200 is a significant sum, I am confident that you will not be disappointed, as I was.
