Innovative hybrid model headlines Sun Mountain's 2022 Golf Bag range

Sun Mountain continues to push the boundaries with the launch of its 2022 bag collection, spearheaded by another industry first – the versatile H2NO SPORT FAST hybrid bag with recessed legs.

Offering the dual capability of a flexible stand bag and a sturdy cart bag, both legs of the H2NO SPORT FAST model recess into the bag’s body to ensure they remain protected and concealed when secured to a trolley or buggy. A rubberised bumper offers extra durability.

Weighing 3.1kg and available in five colours, the fully waterproof bag features a 10.5” top with 14 full length dividers to protect and organise clubs; seven forward-facing pockets with water-resistant zippers and taped seams; plus, the E-Z Lite Dual Strap System for carrying.

“The new H2NO SPORT FAST sets the standard for modern golf bags and reflects the brand’s pioneering vision to support serious golfers,” said Nigel Freemantle, Managing Director of Brand Fusion International, distributors of Sun Mountain products across Europe. “We have assembled the latest range to ensure every golfer can find a model that suits them – from a lightweight Sunday bag, to the all-encompassing SPORT FAST hybrid bag.”

Aimed at serious golfers seeking the most advanced golf bag on the market, the latest innovation joins a series of industry firsts from Sun Mountain, following the introduction of the first truly lightweight ECLIPSE stand bag in 1986, the release of the award-winning waterproof H2NO bag in 2007 and CLUB GLIDER travel bag in 2010.

The ECO-LITE range – another industry first from Sun Mountain – is carried forward for the 2022 season, with the addition of the ECO-LITE 14-WAY stand bag. Incorporating Repreve water resistant fabric crafted from 25-30 recycled plastic bottles in a bid to reduce harmful waste, the popular bag has received a welcome upgrade with the addition of a 14-way top and full-length box dividers for a clean and organised look. The bag is available in four colourways, including the distinctive Navy/Cobalt.

Every cart bag in the 2022 Sun Mountain range has been updated with a new ergonomic locking base for a more secure fit over the lower bag rest of the SpeedCart VR1, PATHFINDER PX3 and PX4, as well as on a number of other trolley models.

The brand’s top selling C-130 has been carried over by popular demand and is now available in five colours, including the striking Camo/Union Flag. It has a 10.5” top with 14 full-length dividers; 13 forward facing pockets for easy access; integrated lift-assist handles at the top and bottom of the bag; plus reinforced fabric in areas prone to wear.

The H2NO LITE headlines the waterproof cart bags for the forthcoming season thanks to its lightweight and feature-packed design. Made using nylon fabric with a waterproof coating on both sides, it weighs just 2.6kg and incorporates seven pockets with water-resistant zips and taped seams to ensure all belongings remain dry in the harshest of weather conditions. Golfers have nine vibrant colours to choose from, including the Black/Spruce/Atomic option.

A great choice for avid walking golfers, the streamlined METRO SLX Sunday bag with a durable 4-way top comes in six styles, including modern camo prints. Its X-Strap Dual Strap System also works well as a single strap for short carries, while vinyl panels offer a strong look and protect the contents. The ultra-lightweight 2.5+ stand bag is constructed using tightly woven nylon fabric and at just 1.3kg is another premium offering for walking golfers. It incorporates a rigid top and bottom moulded from high strength plastic; carbon fibre legs; and six spacious pockets that provide ample space when carrying.

All-new in the ladies’ range, the STELLAR offers chic and sophisticated looks through intricate detailing on the exterior of the bag. Weighing just 2.3kg, it features an easy to organize 10” top with 14 full- length dividers, plus a dedicated putter compartment. Eleven spacious pockets provide ample room for belongings and accessories.

The DIVA is carried forward as the dazzling option for ladies wishing to stand out. Designed for travelling golfers with limited storage space, the KUBE expands into a spacious and manoeuvrable golf transportation bag from its robust and compact hard-case shell.

The selection of CLUBGLIDER travel bags incorporate the exclusive folding-leg mechanism that supports the weight of the bag to deliver exceptional manoeuvrability, while also eliminating bending and lifting. Recommended prices start from €209.
