I bought one of Frank's bags years ago, but I've been eyeing a green Hobson bag because the color would fit my character and I like the idea of the outside being a different color than the inside. Earlier this year, when I was finally going to spring for the green Hobson, it went temporarily out of stock. After a few months, it is back in stock, but Jeff has also added THREE NEW COLORS! The "eggplant" is pretty cool. . . Decisions, decisions. . .

I've got my eye on a Hobson green egg bag as well. I think next up for me will be a Martin Lewis Mardo bag.... Want to give that style a try but I think the Hobson bag will eventually be my bag of choice. Who knows...

I've played with the cheaper Malini-style bag, the Hobson (red), the Senior Mardo, and one whose name I forget, but the bottom is rounded and you never need to worry about what side to hold.
I cut my teeth on the inexpensive Malini, so I might be a bit biased toward using the Malini variations. That said, my go-to bag is the Hobson. The handling is easiest and it seems to be the most effective for me.

I've been using the Mardo/Sterling bag since 1952, when Mardo gave me the "work" on it. I did buy a Magic Inc. Miller/Malini bag, plus Ken Brooks's excellent ms. I gave it an honest try, but, returned to the Sterling/Mardo. It just "fits" me, and my presentation, better, IMO.
The old Latin expression: "De gustibus non est disputandum!" (Concerning tastes, we should not argue!) is a good "rule"!

They said it is on the way.I can't wait and I'm also on vacation so I'll be able to play around with it. I also got the eggs to go with it.

I got my Jeff Hobson Egg Bag yesterday and I love it. It is very easy to handle. The bag and his perfect eggs that I also got works perfectly together. I've been working on his handling, but now I have work on a presentation. Good thing I'm already divorced from my wife because she wouldn't have allowed me to spend that kind of money on a egg bag. If I had to pick between the two I would have gotten the egg bag. Oh well that's how the mop flops.
