Thread: Douchebag Ski Bag Review

Just an update - they are now bringing out models with 'Db' but not 'Douchebag' written on it.

Must have had some feedback

I've got the Concourse double as well. Great bag for an extended trip, but it's really bulky. I live in a highrise so I have to schlep my gear down the hall to the elevator and to my car in the basement. The Concourse doesn't fit in my roof box since it's so bulky so I have to remove the skis and them I've got this giant bag to deal with. Looks like the D-bag might work well and fit in the roof box with the skis in it, but ... no way am I going to roll by my neighbors in the hall with a bag that says "Douchbag" on it in 6" letters. Any recommended alternative for double rolly bags that doesn't label the owner a feminine hygiene product. Needs to take skis up to 196 and either fit in my low profile roof box with the skis in it or fold up small. Hell I'll settle for a Dick Bag or a Scrotum Sack but no way on the DB.

As per previous post they have toned down the branding.

My store has sold 20 of them and the feedback has been excellent.

I bought one this year. Switched from a Concourse Double due to the weight penalty with the airlines.
Great concept/design. I can't say much for the materials or construction. Had several small holes after the first trip and then blew out a corner near the wheels on the second trip.

I knew two reps personally who were approached about selling these at SIA. Both just couldn't get past the name.

Too bad. Seems like a great concept; just horrendous branding.

Model 1 or 2? I have the older Model 1 (white top) and it fared OK on my trip to Europe but I've seen a few of the new 2.0 with the sturdier top material after a long international trip and they are in better shape.

It's also probably worth noting that Douchebag is a much stronger insult in the US than elsewhere in the world. Here in Australia it doesn't seem to have affected the brand, and like I said I've sold a ton of them.

My wife didn't even know what one was.

Version 2.0

Hmmm that's disappointing

I got one as a secret santa present and the thing is fuckin' awesome. Skycaps are thrown into a japanese teenage girl-like tizzy of cell phone pics and giggles without fail which is hilarious to say the least.

Really nice bags too. I would have never paid the money for it but it is a really, really nice ski bag.
