Dude I'm so glad your finally doing this. I think you should sell your first couple of bags for 15$, so that you can hear some early feedback about them, and then if the feedbacks good, pump it up to 20$ or something.

i dont get it

why did you make this topic if you had nothing to sell right now?

wouldn't it make more sense to make it when you had something to sell?

im waiting to get my dads camera to take some pics. also, it will motivate me to get this started sooner than if there wasnt a thread up. calm down bro. anyways.... i should have a few pics up soon. but heres some general info about my bags.

-a little bit bigger than golf ball
-ive stitched around 32 bags. dont worry, theyre good; i learn quick.
-4 stitch, slightly smaller pent to hex ratio.
-medium gather
-ultrasuede light
-soccer balls/radiations usually
-will have steel shot size 7 or 8 filler.
-usually heavier weight, but can do whatever is asked.
-currently only have 3 colors.... but am ordering soon.
-like eoghan said.... will start at 15 plus shipping, then i will increase later. seriously, these are good bags, me and eoghan have played with them for awhile now, very soft. i know everyone says this, but it was broken in the day after i made it.
-i break in bags before i send them out. no more work for you!

thats about it. if you want a bag that is brown/gray/light green/marune, or any combo of those, i can make you a bag now. but i doubt anyone will buy a bag they havnt seen. so please, wait until i post pictures. once i have fabric, i will post colors and take custom orders. but the first few bags will just be whatever i made that day. (i usually stitch 2-3 bags a week) keep an eye out for this thread! i will also be open to trades with stitchers whom bags i feel are at the same level of quality as mine. so not everyone.... but almost everyone. PM me if you want to. until then... bomb bags are awesome! let your game explode!!! (yes, i just thought of that... lame, but catchy!)

I'm going to write a review of Cale's bags, as I've had the pleasure of shredding with one (before his untimely surgery)

First thing i gotta say is that when i first saw Cale's newest bags, i thought that he had bought them off a stitcher on here, because they look so good. When he told me he made it i was genuinely excited, because now i got a crazy good stitcher two towns over, and it will be easy to stay stoked on bags.

Now, onto performance. Cale's bags require literally no break in, his brand new bags feel like veterans to the shred scene, and are a pleasure to play with. They are a bit bigger then golf ball size, but not huge. They set very well, and feel magnificent. The fact that they look great is an added bonus

I dig your 4-stitch (pent-side) stitching style. I've seen a couple of these before, and the best I've seen were from yours and Josh Rayes. Applying gather on these types of bags simply makes them even more beautiful.

Thanks for the pics.
