Renown internationally as a manufacturer of boxing equipment, Everlast started out as a swimwear manufacturer in 1910. Headquartered in the Bronx, NY, the company was founded by 17-year-old Jacob Golomb. The son of a tailor and an avid swimmer, Jacob Golomb was dissatisfied with the durability of swimsuits because they barely lasted a season, so he began making suits that he guaranteed would last for a full year. He proudly gave them the name, Everlast. Although the swimsuits did not last through the years, the name did. Over the next years, Golomb expanded his company into a small retail store that carried a full line of sports equipment. In 1917, a young fighter named Jack Dempsey introduced boxing to Golomb and Everlast. Dempsey asked Golomb to construct protective headgear that would last more than 15 rounds of intensive boxing training. Golomb specially designed the training gear for Dempsey. In 1919, Dempsey won the world's heavyweight championship wearing boxing gloves made for him by Golomb. Everlast became the headquarters for boxing equipment throughout the world. In 1925, Golomb designed elastic-waist trunks to replace the leather-belted trunks then worn by boxers. These trunks, now known as boxer trunks, immediately became famous. Jacob Golomb ran the business until he passed away in the early 1950's and his son, Dan, took over. In 1958, Ben Nadorf joined Everlast and purchased 50% of the company from the Golomb family. When Dan Golomb passed away in 1995, Nadorf purchased the family's remaining 50% interest. Nadorf remained the President and Principle Share Holder of Everlast until October 24, 2000. Everlast men's and women's apparel and accessories continue today to be tremendously successful both inside and outside the ring. In addition, Everlast boxing trunks and equipment remain the proud and undefeated champion of the boxing industry for more than 90 years. The history continues, as the name states. Everlast has a traditional past and a knockout future. What's in the Box? Red Everlast bag, black plastic stand, Ever-Flex collar, black plastic bag stabilizer Manufacturer Warranty 1 year

Customer Reviews
Worst punching bag ever.
This brand new "punching bag" broke on the fourth punch. I am not a professional boxer. Do not buy this.

Great bag, but setup was IMPOSSIBLE!
Just purchased one of these bags, and thought it would be ready for use in no time. I was SO wrong.
First, I filled the base with sand. It tells you to use water but I thought sand would work better. No problems there.
Second, I screwed on the sealing ring. Not a problem at all.
Then came the flex neck. It was such a chore screwing it on, and it took at least 30-45 minutes. The directions made it out to be so easy...
Then I had to screw the connecting pole onto the flex neck. It was way harder than it should have been, and I know some people will have trouble with this.
Assembling the heavy bag:
Holy crap! Hardest part of the assembly. Again, I hate how the directions make it out to be so easy, but it's just really not. I wont go into detail, I'm just going to tell you all that it's the hardest part of assembly. Good luck, I guess.
My bag looks all deformed and unproportional (I guess I can fix it), but it's still a great bag and I will definitely enjoy using it once I fix the bag.

no good
I just got this today and was very disappointed. One of the bolt threads was missing so water kept coming out. It was also ridiculously hard to put together. After an hour or so of struggling I got it together just to find out it was very wobbly and didn't have enough weight to stand still. The bag also fit very loosely on the stand. After hitting it maybe 50 times the thing literally broke in half. I'm 6'5" 235lbs. and I hit really hard, but still, it shouldn't break no matter how hard you hit it. Not recommended at all...

Get A Heavy Bag..
If you can punch hard at all this isnt for you. I punched mine three times and the neck snapped from the force. Im not a professional boxer or anything so this is unacceptable.
I tried filling with water but it moves around a lot. Sand is much better. You should also put this on a carpet or a mat to reduce sliding. If this all goes well, you will have to watch out for the neck snapping, in which you will then have to empty all the sand out and return it. Terrible.

Amazing customer service
I bought this product for my 15 year-old grandson. It arrived with a manufacturing defect to the hook latching it to the base. Within a matter of several days, a whole new system was received and has been getting "the beating" ever since. Both my grandson and his Dad are using it and it's very sturdy. I couldn't be more pleased with the service, the product and the use it's getting.
