My husband has been searching for this bag for the longest time, and he absolutely loves it! Thank you for the excellent customer service . If you haven't seen his video yet, check it out on his Instagram: @djkered. We truly appreciate it!
For the better part of a DECADE, I've been looking for a DJ bag that wouldn't fall apart at the stitching. Myriads of money spent, hunting for a bag that was as durable as it portrayed, while not looking like Bowser's shell hulking off of my back and concussing people from bumps on the train.
Funny enough to find that it's a hunt that a ton of DJs in my circle had gone through; all of us relegated to using whatever backpack might fit everything, hoping that the zippers lasted longer than their predecessors. This last spring, sitting down with some of that same cirlce, Tucker-Bloom got brought up by a DJ I admire; a recommendation packed up with the phrase "I have traveled across the country and around the world with it, and it hasn't flinched."
I was sold. I bought the bag while sitting at the breakfast table with all of them, and waited with hopeful anticipation that it'd match the praise it'd been given. I'm happy to say that it did all of that, so much more, and so *MUCH MORE* than I'd expected.
The folks at Tucker-Bloom had hit a snafu with materials for my bag, and reached out to let me know. They kept me abreast of changes and hang-ups throughout the entire process, which gave me such a peace of mind from the customer-side care alone that I figured that the bag HAD TO hit all the marks. The bag arrived damn near perfect..and fit EVERYTHING my gigantic "DJ lifestyle" bag held PLUS MORE.
I'd happily recommend this bag and Tucker-Bloom to any DJ that's looking for something that's not only well-made, but will last through travel, record packing, laptop safety, extras, and will still fit snacks + a book for the train.
Hats off, Tucker-Bloom.
Purchased on a whim and I don’t think I’ve ever been more comfortable in a tshirt. The fit and feel is exceptional. I’m 5’11”, 190lbs.
I love it. It is so deep. It can be a break out purse for my larger bag. It has been excellent for travel and I don't have to worry about ink stains or spills inside.
The tote arrived with superb quality and was given as a graduation gift. It makes a perfect gift for an occasion like graduation, because it has a multitude of uses and it's durable quality makes it evident that a graduate entering their career can use the tote forever.
I treated myself to the Transit Pass waist pack just in time for holiday travel. Not only does the nubbed leather smell even better than the picture on the screen. It feels comfortable and as snug or loose as you want to set it around your waist. ID & passport - check. Boarding pass on mobile phone - check. Hard candy - check. And you don't look like you're having a fanny. I actually wear mine on the front, a little to the side. Just like the medieval lady of the castle wore her keys to the pantry and to the women's chambers...
Very nice high quality back with very well thought out design essential for any self respecting vinyl collector who shares their talent publicly.
This sturdy sidekick goes with me eveywhere and keeps everything organized and within hand's reach. Zipper pocket holds way more than I imagined. On an average day it's filled with my wallet, smokes, keys, glasses, usb sticks and other random items. The two pockets arw great for things you reach for often. Mine usually has a lighter and my cell. I usually wear it across my chest but it also works like a money belt (or hip sack) around your waste which I've done on some travel days when discretion is advised. Quality is bullet proof. Another T&B sure shot.
I just absolutely love the bag. They accommodate my need of a faster shipping, just in time to take my vinyls to a gig. If you read this you should buy a bag. You’ll not regret it.
The customer service link on the shipping notice message from Tucker-Bloom did not work and no one responded for two weeks to a message sent directly to them. But after I left my initial one star review here, I got a message from them and they were super helpful in trying to help me with USPS and Canada Post. I finally received the bag two months after ordering it and I must say it is perfect! Just the right size, comfortable, flexible enough and solid build quality. But the bag is slightly different from the one pictured on their website. Thanks!!
Lovely product, and is the exact specifications to pass a frontier airlines free carry on. 😆
The craftsmanship is impeccable and it looks sleek af 🔥 customer service experience is top tier 🙆🏽♂️ i hope they make more again in camo or brown, i missed out on the black. Thanks Case!
This is my 4th purchase from Tucker & Bloom. I already have two of the Rhodes Backpacks, and one Mini Messenger bag. As always, the quality of the materials and the thoughtfulness of the design are both incredible. They are pricier than your average bag, but they are a million times better than your average bag, and will last for decades. Plus, they hold vinyl LPs! Couldn't ask for anything more.
The shipping was pretty slow, but when I contacted the company by email they responded within minutes. Probably the best customer service I’ve received online.
My bag has plenty of space and even more pockets than I originally thought there were. Extremely satisfied and will recommend to others. My bag came with several stickers and even a handwritten note from the owner. Thank you.
This is hands down the best DJ bag made on the planet. Super easy to access and store records after you play them.
The industrial engraved metal or brass name plate is the icing on top of the cake! Bulletproof, customizable, and really what sets your bag apart from others.
It’s not by chance that these are the platinum standard of the 45 bag market. Great attention to every single detail. A bag invented and produced by a working dj, co-signed by one of the most respected dj/selectors. I would dare compare these to the original technics 1200’s which were manufactured in Japan!! Quality quality quality!! Customer service is also second to none!!! I’m sure the warranty is great but I have had no issues with either of my other bags of 10+ years! Love the new magnetic snaps on the handles and the etched name plates are a really nice touch! These bags will be passed down for generations because they are built to last!!! Thank you, Case, Tucker & Bloom, and Rich!!! 🙌🏽 💎 🙌🏽 🙏🏽
My original T&B 45s bag (2016) is still going strong ~ best record bag I ever bought ~ period. When I saw a few bags were being made available + with new features ~ it was a no brainer to grab a 2nd bag for me, and one for my brother.
As ever the T&B guys were amazing on the customer service side, and helped with an expedited delivery. Thanks again Case and crew - can’t recommend T&B highly enough. Oscar, London 🇬🇧
I received an older version of this bag 8 or so years ago as a gift from my wife, but the older models didn't have a moveable shoulder pad (it was shearling & sewn ONTO the strap in a fixed position) - it worked great when resting on my shoulder & slung under my arm, but slung around the shoulder & onto my back it was terribly uncomfortable. I saw they now offer the bags with moveable pads, so I messaged them asking if there was any way to get a replacement strap with a moveable shoulder pad (or return it to have it replaced). Case Bloom replied VERY quickly & advised me to send it in & they'd replace the strap to the updated version for free! Such a great bag & amazing company. You have a customer for life!
This is my second RM 45 bag. While I was extremely happy with the first, the team at Tucker & Bloom outdid themselves with the updates for the RM 2.5. The quality material and sturdiness of the bag is exceptional. I've gone to the other side of the world and seen this bag utilized by DJs and shop owners, showing the global reach. Those who know, truly know this is tested and designed by a world class working DJ. Can't wait for my next purchase. Thanks Tucker & Bloom!
