Yeah for those hating on the cooler pocket, can you not use it for other things?  I do not own one but love the retro vibe of it and want one.

@Minarets I have the 1.0 version from 2019. I don’t like the cooler pocket design but to your point, you can use it for other things. For me, it just looks like a blank box (which they probably did for embroidery). I prefer the 1.0 version in terms of looks on that pocket in the front as well as the side pockets. This is the bag I have. The current trouper 2.0/3.0 is a solid bag for sure though.

 

They kept this 1.0 design to the current Utility Trouper but it only has a 3 way divider. I get they probably did it to have some differentiation across the models.

Yeah, I agree that one looks better.

You would think they would, right? But no. They don't.  Uther has the only magnetic bag.

Ghost's return policy ($50 restocking fee) and 30 day warranty don't inspire confidence. 30 days? Really?

You’d trust someone not to beat up a shiny leatherish bag in a longer time frame?  I wouldn’t…. 30 days is pretty standard

They told me they don’t resell any bag as new once it’s sold, no matter the condition.  They will only put it on the blind draw

Ghost’s 7-way top is perfect (for me).  I would love to buy a Vessel DXR with that top.  I love the DXR material and colors, but REALLY prefer the 7-way top.

 

Side note, does anyone know if I can use the new Vessel colored legs as a replacement on the Ghost bags?  Red legs would look great…
