Editorial Review: Amazon.com Product Description: Get the most out of your boxing or martial arts training with this Everlast 80-pound heavy bag. It's made from tough Nevatear, a new leather-like, vinyl material that's made to endure the rigors of even the toughest gyms. It includes a chain attachment for hanging from a heavy bag stand or ceiling attachment. About Everlast The name Everlast is synonymous with boxing. Renown internationally as a manufacturer of boxing equipment, Everlast started out as a swimwear manufacturer in 1910. Headquartered in the Bronx, NY, the company was founded by 17-year-old Jacob Golomb. The son of a tailor and an avid swimmer, Jacob Golomb was dissatisfied with the durability of swimsuits because they barely lasted a season, so he began making suits that he guaranteed would last for a full year. He proudly gave them the name, Everlast. Although the swimsuits did not last through the years, the name did. Over the next years, Golomb expanded his company into a small retail store that carried a full line of sports equipment. In 1917, a young fighter named Jack Dempsey introduced boxing to Golomb and Everlast. Dempsey asked Golomb to construct protective headgear that would last more than 15 rounds of intensive boxing training. Golomb specially designed the training gear for Dempsey. In 1919, Dempsey won the world’s heavyweight championship wearing boxing gloves made for him by Golomb. Everlast became the headquarters for boxing equipment throughout the world. In 1925, Golomb designed elastic-waist trunks to replace the leather-belted trunks then worn by boxers. These trunks, now known as boxer trunks, immediately became famous. Jacob Golomb ran the business until he passed away in the early 1950’s and his son, Dan, took over. In 1958, Ben Nadorf joined Everlast and purchased 50% of the company from the Golomb family. When Dan Golomb passed away in 1995, Nadorf purchased the family’s remaining 50% interest. Nadorf remained the President and Principle Share Holder of Everlast until October 24, 2000. Everlast men’s and women’s apparel and accessories continue today to be tremendously successful both inside and outside the ring. In addition, Everlast boxing trunks and equipment remain the proud and undefeated champion of the boxing industry for more than 90 years. The history continues, as the name states. Everlast has a traditional past and a knockout future. What's in the Box? 80-pound Nevatear bag, chain attachment Manufacturer Warranty 1 year Average Rating:
 Rating:  - good quality for priceThis bag has been very durable. I don't use it every day. Just on days between going to the gym. It gets use 2-3 days per week. The only problem I had was that it was pretty hard in a few areas. I went to a sporting goods store and they had one hanging up and it was much softer. The guy told me (off the record) that they had went against manufacturer's recommendations and unzipped the top and removed some of the filler. I did the same at home with mine and then rolled it around the floor to ... Read More Rating:  - Hitting this is just too much fun!I bought this heavy bag and gloves for the whole family (even the 4 year-old) and we have loved it. It is easy to get carried away with hitting it and you have to be very careful to maintain proper form (learn that first) so you can stay healthy and injury-free. This bag is great quality at a great price. It will take your abuse as long as you take care to protect yourself. It's far more likely to hurt you than you are it. Don't hit it without gloves because it's going to injure you if ... Read More Rating:  - Beware!I've returned two of these bags. Both came in boxes that were previously opened (the original Everlast tape was cut open and retaped with clear packing tape.) The bags were not packed consistantly. Most importantly, what feels like sandbags were placed randomly just under the Nevatear cover. Great cover! However, a few hard punches into packed rags and then a sudden hard shot into sand is unsafe. I'm sure they make a good product, but I'm having a hard time getting one. Gotta move on. Rating: - Heavy BagI've done some amateur boxing way back in my late teens and early twenties. I have punched a lot of bags in those years, I'll say that this product is of excellent quality and will last longer now that I'm a bit older and don't have that pack of punch anymore. Rating: - Everlast 80lb heavy bagthis is a must have for anyone interested in boxing or boxing fitness. Everlast is the most trusted brand in boxing history. established in 1910 they are a quality company that specializes in boxing equipment. take it from an owner of an everlast heavy bag they are great and very durable and can withstand lots of punishment. great for any teen, young male or old tymer tryin to get his groove back.
