Am I the only one who kind of dislikes the look of the round panels?
You're not the only one .. I'd like to try one though.

Jeremy when are you gonna post some of your bags in this thread? You started it but there's not 1 pic in here from you

Eh, I kinda liked the round panels. Somethin different ya know? We're footbaggers, we never do the same thing as everyone else. I am somewhat curious to how the bags play though. They seem somewhat of an enigma so far. Maybe whoever won the last one can post up a quick review.

If you read my footblog, then you'd see poics of bags I just recently made, 6 in fact. They are either on the last page, or the penultimate page. My blog needs more views anyway . . . :D

Ill post that pic here if you want, and Ill take another pic when I finish the next batch of bags.

I guess it's a bit presumptuous of me to post Jeremy's bags. Yes Jeremy, we would like to see your bags. Could you post them here please?

I like the leopard ones a lot. I actually can't decide between the red and the blue which I like more. Probably the red one. Is that up for a trade perhaps? I call dibs if it is :)

Also, is that one on the far left two different shades of red, or is that just my eyes playin tricks on me.

Lol! Fair enough.

I don't use this pattern because i want to make my bags look pretty, i use it because it simulates some of what happens to seams when a bag breaks in. The end result is a bag that has alot less breakin time(without using undurable Amaretto) and therefore a longer shred life.
Senor Grommet wrote:Im also skeptical of how your bags shred Toby, since there is so little gather. Don't bags need a bit of gather to have grip on the shoe? they do look very well-stitched however, so props on that.
These bags actually have quite alot of gather, but i think it isn't very visable because of the style.

How do these bags shred? Being the stitcher, it is impossible not to be biased, but i am very happy with how these bags shred.
jake wrote:those are sick but yeah they look so nice id be afraid to kick them but do they hold up well??? because they look perfect
Yes they hold up very well, i'll post a pic of a broken in one soon.

I'm thinking about something... and there is a very high chance it has something to do with footbag.

However, I'm willing to pay for the bag and not just ask for one to test. :wink:

I have had a Toby Bag for a while now. I find when delaying the bag, because the surface of the bag is so flat, it does not stick as easy and there is less absortion that you get from bags with more gathered panels, so it roles alot easier. Mainly for this reason i prefure my Abshire.
