You Get What You Pay For
I bought this stand bag for my Adam Hall SKS 22-XB, not surprisingly as this is specifically what the bag is built to hold. My experience with this bag hasn't been a good one. The bag is made of very thin material and in my FIRST outing one of the carry-handles came away from the bag. On my second outing the zip came of the end of the zipper and by the third outing a hole was developing at the end of the bag - being caused by the boom-mic mounting which protrudes from the top of the stand.
To combat these problems I've had to:
(1) Re-sow the zipper
(2) Re-attaching the torn handle with rivets
(3) Cushion the inside of the bag so that the hard corners/protruding boom mount don't cause further rips or tear
If you carry your stands on the boot/back seat of your car once in a while, then you may have no problems. But I'm a working musician whose equipment is in and out vans frequently - and this bag is NOT strong or rugged enough. Adam Hall should make something twice as good for twice the price - at least then it may be fit-for-purpose.
By the way, the only reason I rate this with 3 stars is because Thomann very helpfully provided me with a replacement bag with full warranty FOC. Excellent customer support - thank you
