HUNTINGTON BEACH, CA (February 15, 2006) â?” West Coast Trends, Inc., makers of the Club Glove, the Number One travel bag on all Tours, today announced that The Last Bag now has a split top design for easier club loading.
The best travel bag in the industry continues to evolve. The Club Glove Last Bag now features a heavy duty YKK® zipper that goes up and over the top of the bag for a clamshell type opening which allows for easier loading. The company had held off making the change for years to ensure maximum protection for the clubs inside the bag. Now the Club Glove Stiff Arm protects the driver from any vertical blow that might cause damage to it. In addition, newer head covers have been designed to provide much more protection than previous designs.
According to Jeff Herold, President, West Coast Trends, the design of the Last Bag hasn’t changed significantly since its introduction. "With the Last Bag, the only changes to date have involved the addition of quality and strength. Because the existing design provides such tremendous durability and longevity, any major design changes would only be a detriment to the overall performance and durability."
According to the Darrell Survey count, The Last Bag is used by 95% of all PGA and Champions Tour players. All other major brands made up less than 5% combined. The rugged travel bag was introduced nine years ago and has set the standard for excellence in club protection. In fact, it’s the one piece of golf equipment that nearly every Tour Player and Club Professional can agree on. The new split top design Last Bag will be carried by the 2006 U.S.A. Ryder Cup Team captained by Tom Lehman.
The Last Bag is constructed from 1000 D Invista Cordura® Plus Nylon and a patented high-impact plastic wheel base that cradles and shields the bottom of the bag. Extra thick foam padding is built into the bag with a club head security strap for maximum protection from the wear and tear of travel. In-line skate wheels with bearings make it incredibly easy to roll the bag through airports, hotels and wherever else you need to take your clubs.
Other features include YKK® zippers, ITM Nexus® buckles and two shoe pockets with two shoe bags. A two-piece fully integrated handle provides added support and unmatched strength.
The Last Bag is completely manufactured in the U.S.A. with all US made fabric and comes with a limited lifetime warranty or upgradeable "unconditional" warranty. It is available in clay, red, burgundy, purple, navy, royal, green, khaki, highlighter yellow, black and charcoal, and has an MSRP of $279.00. Custom embroidery is available for an additional charge.
