This bag has some great pitential, but falls flat. First, the issues so that I don't get your hopes up and then crush you. The number one reason this bag fails as a softball/baseball bag is that the fence hooks and not exposed when the top flap is open, rendering them completely worthless. (IRIDI actually answered my question yesterday, but i just saw it. You can fold the top flap so it sits on top of the bag while it is hung on the fence. This is true, but this causes the only other pocket to be unusable and everyone who plays baseball/softball wants at least two pockets available. Glove and balls in one and phone, gums, batting gloves in another. Not everyone does it just like this, but I don't know anyone who doesn't do it similar.) Second, the shoe compartment is not ventilated. Third, the valuables pocket is the only smaller pocket available and it is too small for my phone, better yet anything else like a wallet. Fourth, the upper bat straps could be secured a little better so it would be easier to slide the bat through. Finally, the top/main/huge flap is pointless. Yes, it looks okay, but is something else you have to move to get into the bag, when folded back it covers the fence hooks, and the bag looks clean and sharp without it so you're just adding weight.The good aspect... The small net for muddy clothes or holding a helmet is kind if nice. I would hardly ever use it, but it doesn't take up any space, so nice addition. The construction feels good, I think it would hold up well, and be comfortable. The large front opening pocket seems spacious enough and has a slight slope on the bottom so balls and such probably wouldn't fall out. I LOVE having the shoe compartment on top because in adult rec league softball you grab your stuff and get out of the dugout for the next team. You throw everything in the bag, and once you are out you take your shoes off. With everything in the bag it is a PITA to get your shoes in the bottom on other bags. This was a huge selling point to me, but i overlooked the fact that the shoe compartment is not ventilated.If IRIDI really wants to make a good bag, they need to make it SPECIFICALLY for baseball/softball. Ditch the top flap. Vent the shoe compartment. Add small, light weight, connection piints on the main flap so that if you want you can attach it and the flap becomes a shelf. Better yet, make it open to the side so you can put a valuables pocket on the inside face of it. Remove the clip part from the hooks so they are easier to remove from the fence (the fence isn't moving during the game, so the bag isn't going to come unhooked.) Secure the top loop for bats better or just make the bottom sleeve the full height of the bag and you don't need a top loop. I believe IRIDI tried to make a bat bag that could be used for other things and this caused them to make a bag that isn't great at anything. Again good ideas, just poorly executed. Now my search for a new bag continues, because this one is getting returned. Big props to IRIDI for actively answering questions, etc. though. Very few companies take the time to do that.

The material, built quality is great. Also this bag stands out in the crowd.One issue, but not a dealbreaker: The only thing I would improve is the access to the main pocket is behind the net storage for the helmet. So, if you just need to use the Baseball glove, you need to take out the helmet first. Side access would have been better. Other than that this is a great bag. My son has it and he loves it.

Writing review after daily use for 2 weeks. Few key takeaways:1/ Design is unmatched to any sports utility bag in market2/ Superior quality inside/out3/ 900D shell keeps a timeless structure (looks brand new everyday)4/ Versatile work + gym bag5/ Eye-catcher (the complement bag)It’s overall an easy bag that does what it says and looks fantastic. Beyond expectation. I’d recommend to even a broader audience outside sports.

I have been needing a sports bag and this one caught my attention. The description shows that it's most suited for carrying baseball products but it's also good for carrying other sports products and exceptional for hiking. 5 stars.

My daughter loves this bag, lots of room and great quality!

I bought it for my husband so he can use it whenever he goes out to play ball with his friends during the weekend. Turns out it can be used as a multi lurpose bag in addition to its original purpose as a bat carrier. Comes pretty handy and I surely recommend it.

Awesome design and quality with the best price! It's spacious and durable with nice materials, and the back panel is really comfortable and soft. I guess even you can use it for a travel or hiking.

Best batpack ever. Very sturdy, not cheaply made. It holds everything I need with plenty of extra room. I definitely recommend.
