I stumbled upon this brand and from what I’ve seen you guys are doing a great job with integrating different things from feedback. I love to see a company that actually cares.
Excellent bag, unfortunately too expensive for Europe, postage and customs costs more than the bag. I hope that you will offer shipping from Europe in the future
Interesting decision w/ the grab handle, I wonder how it will impact comfort when using the straps on the topside for carry. Wilson has this design on their 15 and 9-packs, but the handle is flush to the top. My guess is that there are a significant amount of players who use the straps on the bottom side for carry. Kind of interesting, I thought future iterations might have eliminated bottom carry altogether. Nonetheless, great updates, look forward to future iterations of this bag!
Yea, you nailed it. We spent a LOT of time debating this. The flush handles I personally think look nicer, but are a bit harder to grab. As for comfort, I didn't notice much discomfort but tbh I am a bottom strap wearer for the most part. Thanks for the feedback!
What I would love to see are dividers. Even a simple piece of cloth/polyester type material that you can velcro in to separate the 3 racquets. Surely that can't be expensive? Otherwise, my $700 worth of new racquets are just getting chipped as the racquets bounce around against each other when travelling.
I'm in the same boat from buying the adv pro bad V2, backpack, and pickleball bag. I'm glad they make a lot of updates but will probs need to wait a bit for other updates since it's not like I can sell a used bag that's been on the floor

We've looked into that for sure and may do it, but we want to make sure that the shelving is high quality. A lot of bags use foam which will degraded and soften over time. Once we get the right material, this is for sure on the list :) Cheers.
I'm in the same boat as some of the others - I'd love to preorder the V3 but I would need to sell my V1 bag. There doesn't seem to be a used market for these on eBay. Anyone have luck selling their ADV bag used anywhere? Anyone interested in a gently-used V1? 😛

Yep, you're right - it's more than normal tennis bags. We put a lot of unique features and materials found more so in luggage brands like Tumi and bags like Patagonia then typical tennis bags.
If you ever owned one, you would definitely not have said that. The quality, utility is hands down much better than “any top brand”. I have had the privilege of owning the v2 and it’s much better than the standard run of the mill ones that the normal brands carry. The only reason why they won’t do that is it cost too much to make it like that
@@Ryzn322 It's expensive compared to standard bags but the quality and utility is on a completely different level. I was sceptical before I bought mine but having used mine for almost a year now, I can't go back to anything else the usability is so much better.
@@vwmusicplaylist1935 I agree with this. I've got $500 worth of racquets - it makes no sense to put such expensive racquets into a low quality bag. That's before I even talk about my $800 phone, $1000 laptop etc. I need a bag to match as I want to properly protect my racquets / gear as well as having all the pockets etc for travelling to tournaments, league matches etc. I think the price is reasonable for what you're getting as this bag will last for years.

Thanks so much for this. It means a lot. We are players and coaches too, and know the struggle. Have a great one!
Having met this guy and his assistant, I have to admit I love what they're doing in the bag space.
Thanks!
Oh nice that you made the bottom straps of aluminum!! My V2 plastic ones broke within like a month of ownership :(
Indeed! Always looking to improve :)

These are the best tennis bags on the market
Thanks!
great to see some new developments. The bags are superb - I have the v2 version.
Thanks and enjoy!

Hi. Did you say there will be another colour option coming?
What I would love to see are dividers. Even a simple piece of cloth/polyester type material that you can velcro in to separate the 3 racquets. Surely that can't be expensive? Otherwise, my $700 worth of new racquets are just getting chipped as the racquets bounce around against each other when travelling.
Great feedback and yea, we will 100% look into that for future versions.
Yeah right now in the V2 a couple of my racquets are sadly getting chipped bc it's a tight squeeze :(
@@DuhDuJour please shoot me an email at help@advtennis.pro. We want to help!
Loved my V1 and my V2, but at this point I'll have to wait until V5 or 6...cant justify an upgrade every year.

I have the same issue. Bought 2 of the version 2.

Could do with a stowaway chest strap, imho.
100% - you're right. This is surely going to be on V4 :)
Any chance of having them shipped to Europe without having to pay an arm and a leg? 🙈
Maybe! We are looking for fulfillment in Europe sometime next year.
Why not make it into a standing bag with shelving? Now that's a real improvement that's unique and stands out. Would've cope.
We've looked into that for sure and may do it, but we want to make sure that the shelving is high quality. A lot of bags use foam which will degraded and soften over time. Once we get the right material, this is for sure on the list :) Cheers.
@@advtennispro seconding the shelves/compartments idea...looking forward to it being done right.

just preordered mine, only problem i had with v1 was cool drink compartment that got torn apart on seams. Is it any different than v1?
Hey there - That issue (which affected about 10 units) was fixed in V2 and V3 will definitely not have that issue. Thanks for your preorder!
Sold out?
V2 is sold out and V3 will be ready to ship in mid-August.
Ridiculous price
Yep, you're right - it's more than normal tennis bags. We put a lot of unique features and materials found more so in luggage brands like Tumi and bags like Patagonia then typical tennis bags.
I really dont see 2x the quality or value over a top end bag from a large racquet manufacturer for 125$ at the high end.
