Let customers speak for us
This is the best bag I've ever seen or used ,definitely worth the price. Ive used this bag for everything and actually used it for my honeymoon, and can say that it is the perfect bag for any scenario. The bag is so sleek and futuristic yet simple that when you walk around with it it draws attention by just how professional it looks, whether your on the work or using it for lifestyle, it just works. I love what the team at Forwrd is doing and just keep doing it!
Quality is TOP NOTCH! Have so many comments on mine!
This bag is the perfect size for 2-3 paddles shoes and balls. Nice hooks to hang on fence anddurable bottom should you need to place on the ground.
Perfect fit with my court caddy ! The shoe cube and court caddy , together , are by far the best bag combo I’ve owned. Just enough room so I carry everything I need and nothing that I don’t !
I’ve had many bags over the years starting tournament tennis at the age of 6. This bag , along with the shoe caddy ,is the most versatile , compact bag I’ve owned
Really like the quality of the bag and love how the bag design is very casual, you cannot tell if it’s a pickleball bag at all. I am able to put 4 paddles in there along with balls and accessories.
I have been using the LT Pro 48 pickleballs starting this summer in Maine and now in Florida since October. I have introduced many of our rec players to the advantages of the LT ball. Bounces truer, slightly higher, more pop and stays rounder longer than other balls. Many were sceptical but after playing with it awhile but they concluded that the ball is great and got use to the predictably and true bounce. Even the slight greenish color didn’t bother them! Now we just need USAPA approval!
I have the Ranger and it is perfect!!
I currently own 3 Forwrd bags and enjoy each one. The best bags I've ever purchased
I've been searching for a new pickleball bag for quite some time...my previous bag was 'cute' but lacked some basic functionality and organization that made it frustrating to use - after lots of research, I ended up with the court ranger - and I love it- superior quality - great organization and features - an all-around great bag! I'll add that customer service is very responsive! Thank you FORWRD! A worthwhile investment!
Great bag. Well built and versatile. It’s the perfect size for an everyday bag. I play every day and this bag is perfect.
Love my Forwrd Ranger bag! Affordable, quality bag that exceeds my expectations. It’s not bulky at all and very practical for daily use.
Great pickleball backpack (charcoal) bought for my wife and she loves it. I currently use the Court Caddy (green) and love it as well. Great construction & lots of room in both bags. If you're in the market for a pickleball bag you will not be disappointed with either bag depending on your needs.
Such a great experience from the moment I put the bag in my cart. Had a personal reach out that helped me finalize my decision to purchase and loved the bag the moment I opened it. The fence clips, magnetic ball compartments and towel loops are all such amazing details that are so perfect for pickleball players. It's comfortable to wear, stands upright when I put it down, and I love that there's a spot for everything.
The feature I enjoy the most about my new Court Ranger Pickleball Backpack by Forwrd is the high quality materials used to manufacture the bag. The outer material is very thick and protective. The zippers are top of the line YKK zippers with stitched pulls. The bottom of the bag is weather/dirt/scuff proof coated nylon thick enough to hold its shape when placed on the ground.
Size wise, I find the bag quite adequate for typical pickleball outings with room for up to 3 paddles, water bottle, 3 balls, plus separate pockets for smaller accoutrements such as car keys, wallet, phone, and glasses.
Very comfortable shoulder straps that don't slide off your shoulder when just using one strap. I also like the molle loops on the front of the bag for the future expandability.
