Climbing kit bags

[Danavan]

Hello all,

 

I'm in the market for a new climbing kit bag & it boils down to two that look as if they will fit my needs the most.

 

Silverbull multi use.

 

Black diamond touch stone.

 

My question is has anyone got ether of these & what are your thoughts on them with regards to can harness, 45m rope & a variety of crab's & other gear be stored in & on easily, along with durability, weather & people lobbing it on & off trucks & that sort of general abuse that kit bags can get. & anything else that you think should be mentioned.

 

Cheers for any feed back.

Use a B&Q plastic box works great keeps it seperate from all the saws etc in the van

I had a silver bull big kit bag and even with light use it fell apart, the zip wasn't that strong,mthat broke too, and the stitching on the panel at the bottom came out.

 

I now have two north face duffel bags. Cheaper than the silver bull as I got the medium size and a lot lot stronger and well made.

 

Even had the gelert bags, a step up on the silver bull but not quite a north face. I was pleased with it though!

i use an orange halfords plastic box, far better than any bag and my ropes in a rope bag separate

I also store my kit in a large plastic box from B&Q and ropes kept in rope bag cant fault it
