Feedback :

“I have been using the Boderiou sheepskin bag since March 2019 and could not be more happy with it. The bag comes in a standard size with the holes pre “star” cut which is great for those who don’t want to pressure of picking their stock placements and cutting their own holes. Surprisingly being a swan neck ‘preacher’ myself, the positions of the stock cuts along with the straight neck bag (more curved than straight) make for the comfiest bag I have ever played on to date.
Aesthetically, the bag looks like it is expertly crafted from superior leather and is super airtight. The first thing that came to my attention was that the high A had a more prominent and consistent ring with ALL the chanters I play on (Boderiou, Sinclair, G1 and R.G.Hardie) and the bag regulated moisture quite well which resulted in more stability over lengthy sessions. I also soon found the bag required less seasoning overtime having seasoned it maybe once in the past 3 months; being played once every 2-3 days or so.

I fully recommend you give the Boderiou sheepskin bag a go, big fan of this one!”

“I’ve been playing one of Xavier’s sheepskin bags for over a year now. To say I’m satisfied with it is an understatement. The feel, shape and vibration from the bag is on par or even ahead of the best bags I’ve played.
Excellent craftsmanship and a lovely swan neck keeps the chanter nice and snug to the body and the lovely ring from the top hand due to how the neck is cut is the best I’ve had from any bag.
I love the bag and would encourage anyone in the market for a new bag to give one of these a try. You won’t regret it!”

“I’ve been trialing the Boderiou bag now for 4 weeks and can’t believe how solid and comfortable this bag is. Just after one season from new and one night blowing I will easily say it is the most comfortable bag I’ve played in a long time. The airstream dynamic shape and cut has made playing enjoyable for me again. I’d highly recommend this bag to anyone”
