The trend of synthetic leather stand bags has been bubbling away for the last few years with more and more brands offering their own versions of a classic, premium stand bag. Think of the Ogio Shadow and Vessel Players V stand bags as leading examples of this. This year appears to be no different and now Ben Hogan has entered the fray. This is a brand ready-made to create a stand bag like this, and the new Signature model ticks pretty much every box in this field.
As with most of these types of bags, the majority is made from a water-resistant synthetic leather material - note it’s not fully waterproof - that aims to provide a blend of practicality and classy looks. It’s a much heavier material than you’ll find on the best lightweight stand bags, but at 2.6kg it’s still relatively lightweight compared to some larger stand bags.
