This bag is awesome. Meets my needs to keep equipment organized and easy to find in trunk of car. Easy to carry inside when cleaning the back of my vehicle.

I have been using a bag combo similar to this one. It actually was a "hand me down" from my mother who bought it for a trip to Europe. Problem was, it was too heavy and bulky for her. So, it was the perfect find for me, 14 years ago. This Force3 bag is even better. The large "upper bag" is very spacious and easily handles all my gear. The "lower bag" works wonderfully for my clothing including my undergarments. This bag is so worth it!!!

This bag is well designed, durable, and very versatile. The zippers are large and all materials are of high quality. The size of the bag is perfect. It’s not too bulky for a trunk or back seat of a truck. I would highly recommend this bag for any umpire.

I absolutely love this bag!! I was looking for a bag with a telescopic handle and this one was perfect!! The only downfall is I wish it was a little bigger! But I’m able to fit all my clothes and equipment in it!! I honestly have it packed out to the point it’s a tussle to get it zipped!! It’s gotten a lot easier the more I zip it though!! As umpires, eyes are on us as soon as we arrive in the parking lot! Believe it or not, the way we arrive at games tells the fans exactly what kinda game to expect. This bag ensures that you arrive in style!! Everything fits nicely and neatly in this bag! If I could get my house as organized as my baseball equipment bag, I’d be batting 1000! But I highly recommend this bag! The more you use it, the easier zipping it up gets!!!

It's the best bag I've ever had. I recommended it. You have to buy it.

A great improvement over my previous bag (which was a generic roller duffle piece of luggage). I do not regret getting this bag. That said, I do wish it was a bit longer.

I bought this bag for all my umpire equipment. This bag has everything I wanted. I really like the separate places on each end of the bag to put your plate shoes and field shoes. It has a ton of space, and the zippers are very heavy-duty.

This Force3 equipment bag is very big and has plenty of room to hold all of my umpire gear. And the price is very affordable!

I bought this bag for my hockey officiating gear. It is the perfect size to fit everything I need. Very great durability, and I like how there is no branding all over the bag, and it is just in a small corner of the bag. 5 stars in my book!

Nice equipment bag. I like the separate compartment for shoes or uniforms depending on how I pack, and easily holds my gear. Several pockets help keep me organized and know where I will find what I need for the day's work on the field. Love the wheels and the ease to move the bag from vehicle to locker room.

This equipment bag is awesome and works great, if only I could remember to zip the bottom part before lifting it. For myself, I think the bag is a little too small. I have a Wilson hard shell chest protector and the Force 3 shins which take up a lot of room along with my shoes, both plate and bases inside the main pocket. But, it does work and I'm still very happy with the bag and how it functions. The pockets help me stay organized and the pop-up handle helps for us taller umpires. Great price, quick delivery and works great.

I was excited to receive the bag and start using it. However, I was not satisfied with the design. First, it was really difficult to insert the PE boards. It felt like they were not the right size for the bag. Second, I didn't like that you cannot access both sections at the same time. Third, the bag does not have a lot of interior pockets. If you want to keep your small accessories organized in secure, this is not the bag for you. It's basically two main sections with no accessory pockets. This bag would be ideal with two improvements. 1) if you could open it up completely laid out and you have access to both the clothes section and the gear section. 2) if the interior had accessory pockets. I will most likely return this bag to the vendor.

I love the size of the Force 3 Gear Bag. The biggest issue with the last 2 bags I purchased was that one of the rods for telescopic handle broke in both cases.

As a long-time user (decade+) of the Diamond bag (pre-telescoping handle), I was looking for something a little more compact and with a telescoping handle. The Force3 bag met those basic requirements but ultimately turned out not to be the bag for me. It seems to be well-constructed, with rugged wheels and what feels like a solid telescoping handle. It also has ample room to carry what I need for game travel. For me, however, it lacked necessary inside and outside pockets for smaller gear and/or personal items. I also wish that the top compartment was accessible when the bag is laid open; as it is, one must close the bottom compartment in order to open and access the top compartment.
4 stars - add accessory pockets.
4.5 stars - make the top compartment accessible from top and bottom.
5 stars - add premium zipper pulls/sliders.

Very nice bag. The telescopic handle makes it easy to pull. Plenty of room inside for clothes and equipment. Highly recommend this bag.

I had been using the Diamond Ultimate 33" Wheeled Umpire Equipment Bag with Telescopic Handle but decided to switch to this one. Early on, I've been far happier with the Force3. I never used the shoe pocket on the Diamond bag which only seemed to take away storage space, especially seeing as it was not big enough to hold both my plate & base shoes. The Force3 is also rigid than the Diamond and seems to have nicer wheels and a nicer handle. If you're debating between the two, I would recommend the Force3, hands down.

I am a big fan of this Force3 Umpire Equipment Bag, it fits perfectly in my trunk with room left to spare for my chair and miscellaneous items. The bag holds all of my equipment up top and with the folding bags, I am able to easily carry 3 shirts and 2 pants in the bottom compartment. Highly recommend this bag, as well as, checking out the Crew How to on how to pack it.

Really good umpire equipment bag, lots of space. I can fit more then I really need in the bag... however you can never have too much.

This is the perfect bag in size and meets all requirements to be considered a REGULAR checked bag and not OVERSIZED. So, great product and the folding bags are a bonus.

Seems to have quality zippers all around and lots of room for my gear. I would buy again!

Love it! Fits everything perfectly. Had the Wilson bag and felt it was too big.

Great Bag! High grade materials yet very light in weight. Holds everything I have with room to spare. Great, high quality wheels too which make for easy transport. Definitely would recommend.

Very solid umpire bag. I don't use the clothes compartment much, because I leave it in the trunk, unless I'm doing a cleaning and adjusting session. One inside zipper broke, but I didn't use it.

It's a solid bag and holds all my gear very well. I did have a glitch with the zipper but as always UMP-ATTIRE.COM was there to resolve the problem and Force3 worked with them and me to make sure I was a happy camper.
I believe that UMP-ATTIRE.COM partners up with some very good product manufacturers.
Its a tough bag...but light in weight
I would recommend this bag as a "4.9 star" product and would buy it again.
Play Ball !!!!
