I look at it the same way, couple of weekends and all the stuff I bought this year is paid for. And I look great and am protected for seasons to come.

Ultimate Umpire Bag
 
I have the Diamond Umpire Bag and since I'm no longer umpiring, I won't be needing it any longer.

I'll sell it for $85

It has my name embroidered on one end, but you can remove with some scissors.

Shipping Is Extra!

And if I get assigned more games than I expected, I buy even more gear that I don't really need.

Does the Wilson have separate compartments for t shirts and gear, like the Diamond has?

Kevin Finnerty Tue Jan 20, 2009 10:14am

It does.

The top separates from the bottom in the same fashion. But I am not sure that the mesh pockets for the accessories are there on the top flap of the Wilson.

I might have to buy one to see what it's really like. ;)

Does anyone have this Honigs bag? How does it compare to the Wilson and Diamond? It's alot cheaper.

Good lookin out! Just ordered. Thanks.

Kevin Finnerty Wed Jan 21, 2009 10:15am

Welcome!

Kevin Finnerty Thu Jan 22, 2009 12:00pm

The Wilson really does look like a great alternative to the Diamond or the Jim Evans bags. At $99.00, you halfway stole it.

Put em in, ipped up the sides, and loaded the bag. It is exactly like the old honigs bag and the Swiss bag, and I think it is the best bag you can get.

Must have been an individual glitch. I didn't experience any similar problem.

Not exactly the same. But similar and better.

I agree that it's the best bag I've seen. I also like the option of having a name embroidered.
