When someone receives their bag can you post back here on the overall quality of the bag? Most interested in the quality and durability of the zipper closures.

When someone receives their bag can you post back here on the overall quality of the bag? Most interested in the quality and durability of the zipper closures. I received my bag yesterday. (Six weeks after I placed the order.) This is my unsolicited, non compensated, unbiased review. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_flagge6.gif) Everything about this bag is top quality. (If I ever have Singer build me a 911, I would immediately order a set of matching luggage from Redline Nine.) My first impression was how soft and unstructured the bag is. It almost feels fluid, (but not at all flimsy.) I was also struck by how voluminous it is. It will require thoughtful packing to properly distribute the weight. The single zippered opening was ample access for stacking the clothes. The craftsmanship of construction is worthy of the quality components. The leather is buttery soft and supple. The light texture is pleasing. The canvas material is very sturdy and will surely stand up to years of use without showing signs of wear. The simple lining is luxurious. The zipper quality seems to match the rest of the product. I expected it to be durable. (I would hate for a $2 zipper to ruin a $200 bag.) The zipper only pulls one way. (Not double pull tabs like some bags.) The zipper hardware is gold while the 'D' rings are gunmetal? Strange but not distracting. The leather handles are very sensual. The handles terminate at the bottom seam, and do not wrap around the bottom. (I think this design helps better support the mass with such a soft and flexible piece of luggage.) I tried a shoulder strap, and the contents wanted to shift and ball up in the center, if the bag was not fully loaded. The bag fits well in either trunk/frunk of a Cayman or 914. (I expect it will work with all Porsche models.) I am looking forward to my next road trip to PCA Treffen and the Route 66 Classic, and being the envy of everyone in the parking lot.

(IMG:style_emoticons/default/elvira.gif) ![]() Great picture! Thank you very much for your review. I truly appreciate your feedback, and am glad you are pleased with your bag. My apologies for it taking six weeks to get it to you. We apparently initially ran our supplier (who makes the cloth) out of cloth, and they had to make more. Also our system didn’t send you an email confirming your address and letting you know it would be shipped signature required when it was supposed to. So yours went out a few days after completion. It is an interesting combination of softness and structure. That is due to the automotive-grade cloths. All of the leather is full grain, and we are using a European-style finish, that provides the buttery soft feel. It is a large bag. I am amazed at how much I can get into it. I find myself using our carry-on bag for weekend trips, if I am alone, and our large bag for longer trips and trips with my wife. We went to great lengths to source very durable zippers. The d-rings are color matched to the color of the actual zipper, rather than the zipper pull. This was chosen so they don’t stand out too much on top of the bag, and blend in. We have worked on various designs with respect to the handles. It was decided not to have them wrap under the bag due to their thickness (automotive grade). If they wrapped under the bag, they would be a thick addition to the bottom. Also, the original Porsche bags that we modeled ours after did not wrap under the bag. Thanks again for posting your review. PS: Do you mind if I put the picture on our website? |
