| @stevew, Have you tried your boots in it yet?? |
Not yet will try over the weekend |
Boots fit in well. The bag is longer and higher than existing bag but maybe a little narrower only packing it up will confirm .... another 2 weeks

I was just looking at sportpursuit, they have an Eastpak wheelie hold-all, 98 litres with two end zipped pockets that look ideal. Not sold as a boot specific one but for £60 or so could be perfect.

It doesn't look tall enough to fit a ski boot in the end pocket.

My Boots are just under 37 tall.....so it's hard to know for certain, especially if the wheels/handle intrude into the available height.

Ok. Your boots are smaller than the pocket in the bag and the bag is made of fabric which is likely to stretch a bit. If that’s not good enough, I guess you’d better buy something else? I just saw it and thought of this thread.

I went for the Nevica.
I only highlighted it, just in case somebody bought it without checking and found the pockets were too small. It looks like a quality bag at a good price.

I have had 2 of the cheap Nevica ones but both got killed by the baggage handlers after not very long at all, big holes ripped in it, that sort of thing. I don't know how they manage it unless they drag it along the floor for metres.
I find this one is the best one I've had in terms of size, weight (quite light for a wheelie bag think it is about 3kg although it doesn't say on the link) and price
