I'm going on 5 years and am really happy with the durability of the bags.
The corners of my small green shop sack have gotten worn but that's about
it. I use it more than the large one.

Rivendell sells, or used to sell, this -- I got one from them. Frankly, I
find that a regular awl, good fat needle, and waxed thread is just as fast,
but this does work.

Tim,
Here's a great tool to have. Available at REI, camp stores,ACE or online.
Easy to use. Great for repairs, or attaching patches.

Hi Tim,
I know you have probably already done this but still... I would definitely
examine the rack or basket for any nicks, burrs, anomalies corresponding to
where the hole is forming on the bag. It is easy to envision a mildly
weighted bag eventually losing the battle, bouncing and
Thanks sharing, Bob, Tony and Mark. It's a pretty small hole, so I'm sure the
bag will last for many years to come. Even if I have to test my hand stitching
skills.

My medium Green is three years old and holding up great. I have one hole in
it after the bag flew out of my basket and hit the concrete with a bunch of

I'm going on 3 years I think with my green medium... Couple holes along the
center bottom stitching and definitely wear and 'beusauge' but I've been
delighted with the simplicity and robustness of mine. 7 months to first hole
send a bit fast but obviously every bag sees much different
Tim,
I do not have an answer to your question but I will say there seem to be
two weights of shop sack... tan, olive and blue are more robust... brown
and grey still robust, but possibly less so.
