Sun Mountain Eco-lite Bags from £199

-

Bag maker Sun Mountain has introduced another industry first with its new Eco-lite stand and cart bags. The highly durable fine threads that form the fabric are made from between 25 and 30 recycled plastic bottles. These water-resistant golf bags aim to reduce harmful waste and offer golfers peace of mind, knowing that the fabric used in the design is made in a more sustainabl­e way.

Weighing less than 2kg, the Eco-lite stand bag features a contoured Dual Strap system to guarantee comfort and ease of use, while the four-way top provides plenty of club space and easy access. It also includes a comfort-grip handle to assist in picking up and setting down the bag. The lightweigh­t design incorporat­es six pockets, including a roomy apparel pocket, a velour-lined valuables pocket and a hydration sleeve.

The feature-packed Eco-lite cart bag is made from 30 recycled bottles and incorporat­es a 14-way divider top and separate putter well. There are eight easy-to-access forward-facing pockets, including a velour-lined valuables pocket and an insulated cooler pocket, while a pass-through strap system ensures a secure fit.

The Eco-lite stand and cart bags will be available from July in five colours, with RRPS of £199 and

£219 respective­ly.

 ??  ?? We’ve seen plastic waste being recycled into golf footwear and apparel, but it’s refreshing to see it spreading further into other categories like golf bags. These two pioneering options certainly don’t appear to skimp on features or styling – they look great.
