Give it some time. The facile bags take about three weeks to break-in perfect. Wash once a week for the first three weeks and from there wash when it is needed. A clean bag will last longer than a dirty one. If the bags falls apart, then too much force was applied. Hope this helps, Richard Abshire

I like a lot of my bags extremely broken in, thus my comment about having them "falling apart."

Those of you that are having issues with Richie's bags, i suggest that you follow his advice and wash them, if it is still not soft, I use the fearless 55 hybrids and I have both the tight and loose stiched bag, THEY ARE IDEAL!
Both bag are instantly shredable. 8)
