On the topic of gear bags I've recently upgraded my gear bag from the ebag to the large Milwaukee pack hard case. Might not be for everyone but it fulfills my needs.

We've had an unusually wet spring in my area. The wet weather, combined with the leak in my truck bed cover, resulted in a very wet, cold, game after I forgot to take my gear out one night. So by using the hard case I don't need to remove my gear every night now and it's got way more room in it than bag I've used before, including the ebag. 

 

That being said, ebag for $75 is an absolute steal and you won't beat that price or value with anything else!

Is the “brushed indigo” color close enough to navy?

 

😉

 

Any thoughts or experience with their packing cubes? 
 

I bought a Force 3 bag a few years ago and am not overly impressed with it.  I don’t need to spend more money, but …

All items I have from Ebags have been great and they have a lifetime warranty. And I’ve had to get a few bags replaced and it’s a very easy/quick turnaround process.

$101 … I ordered the packing cubes to go with it.  I’ll report back.

If it is as good as y’all say, I’ll have a lightly used Force 3 bag for sale.  🙂  It’s a good bag, but I just never quite got the layout right for myself.

 4/28 (today).

They also have $5 shipping on all orders right now, also.  (Sorry @wolfe_man!)

My Force 3 will run a little longer. 😛

Hey, they're not cheating me... I ordered another one and two sets of luggage for my kids & wife. LOL

Hint: you can stack coupons... I had a WELCOME15 and an EXTRA10 that worked on the luggage. I don't think it affects the Mother Lode, but you can try.

I have used them for a while with my mother lode (which I purchased last fire sale they had 😂)

They are nice quality especially at the sale price!

 I used to use the amazon basics but these are better.

Gah!  LOL - I know I’m a cheap bastard … e-mailed their customer service to see if they could apply this retroactively.  
 

Just like a coach, it doesn’t hurt to ask and try.  😁

This can work (my company has done it for years). You don't get what you don't ask for.

Just curious what all you pack in each one.  I bought the 6-pack (one large, one medium, one small, and 3 slims).  Contemplating rolled shirts in the slims to eliminate “the closet” in my car.

I am planning on using the large for shirts/jackets, the medium for more shirts or pants, and maybe the slims for accessories… pens, Lineup Cards, or brush. Know a lot of people who have them and they say the cubes are a must.

I bought 2 sets of the 6 packs. I use the larges for shirts and pants. Medium for tights and undershirts.  Slims for accessories.
