Our pipe bags are produced with care and attention. They are also in many ways superior to any other bag including synthetic. Each bag is hand made and stitched. Attention to detail and care are taken with each bag setting us apart from our mass produced counterparts.
They will give a superior tone by keeping the moisture in the bag constant and under control; it will feel more comfortable-as it will fit like a tailored suit and once under the arm will stay there. We will be able to advise you which size is best and what material to buy.
If the standard sizes above are not suitable then bags can be made to your pattern. The standard bag is often a good starting point for first time buyers.
All bags are made entirely by hand and the skins are processed from the field to the customer by James C. Begg. Each bag has at least 6 hours of work in it.
As used by R. Macleod, G.Walker, Field Marshall Montgomery P.B, Simon Fraser University & Strathclyde Police - all World Champions.
Types of bag available include the sheepskin, which is most suitable for pipers who play on a regular basis. It will dissipate moisture better than the cowhide. The cowhide would be better in hot climates or where the bagpipe is not being played much as it retains moisture and does not dry out.
PLEASE NOTE that bags can be fitted by return of post. ALSO bags can be made in either Sheepskin or hide and with or without a swan neck. REMEMBER to let us know your preferences when ordering in the comments section of the order form.'
