Outslayer Heavy Bag Review: 1 Year of Commercial Use

[@arielrueda7258]

"I don't use shin pads when kicking the bag, obviously, because I am not a giant pussy..." , loved it

[@ElonsXiProtocolCadet]

Old worn out MMA'er... married... got civilized and suburbanized... looking for a bag that might get me back to beating on stuff and keep me from dying early of the fat and lazy. I appreciated this review for the detail where it needed to be and the honesty. Thank you sincerely, I appreciate your work.

[@hard2hurt]

Thank you man.

Haha same

[@miahurr23]

I love your video! Your candid, non PC correct speak with the tape sticking to your foot mid dialogue. Excellent job!!

[@masonnoodles]

I’m a bit of a novice and bought this bag and it came in today when the fed ex guy threw it from his truck and onto my porch. I actually love it. Sent a few kicks into it and felt fine. But I can see myself conditioning my shins further on this bag down the line. No shin pads needed for my tolerance level

[@yeayeayea47]

Thank you for the honest review...I'm in the market for a filled bag.

[@kevinjung6130]

The most straightforward and fun review of bags I've seen. Thanks for the great content ^^

[@cbryant1004]

I bought one not too long ago and love it! I'm 6'4 230ish and hit the shit out of it and don't see any signs of damage. I had an 80-90lbs "everlast" bag a few years ago and it didn't even last a year. Sand and shit was pouring out of it with each hit.

[@oscargervacio1695]

I had an everlast bag and one of the rings flew off when I kicked it

[@aaroncatolico7550]

how heavy is the Outslayer heavy bag that you have?

[@Aitonomouss]

Someone reccomended me a 150lb version of this heavy bag, looks pretty durable

[@johanneskrv]

An important tip: You should add a piece of rope between the d-rings and the carabine hook to make the bag last. Otherwise eventually one of the d-rings will snap because the carabine hook breaks them down. When that happens, the bag is done. Much less expensive to replace the piece of rope than the whole bag.

[@goodcitizen3780]

The bag is done because a D ring breaks?!? What if you just replace the ring? Lol

[@johanneskrv]

@@goodcitizen3780 Let me see you replace that D broken ring by yourself. where you gonna find one? How you gonna close it by yourself? Not gonna happen bro and you know it.

[@JofoTubin]

Thanks for the review, Icy Mike. Have a new baby and can't get to the gym like I want so started searching for a bag for home. Saw one of these advertised on CL as "brand new, never used" for $150. Searched youtube for reviews and saw your ugly mug. Just picked it up, still in the vinyl bag, and it feels amazing.

[@Mentallyuntouchable]

Hey do you have a bag recommendation for a home gym? Mostly box for solely for fitness

[@bradschak]

Amazon has unfilled Outslayer bag for 135. The filled version is 410. I never knew Ralph Lauren provided clothes for heavy bags. Even on their website, the filled vs unfilled is twice the price. Convenience can be expensive. I wonder if they take payments? I guess shipping ain’t free after all.

[@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595]

Yup. Hell, it probably wouldn’t cost you more than $50-$60 to fill it yourself.

[@aaroncatolico7550]

[@dontblink3042]

Best bag i've used. Fairtex i can't get it filled properly.

[@MLTIVRSE]

Hey Icy Mike, awesome videos. How would you rate the firmness of this bag 1-10? I'm currently between one of these and the Title "Flex-Strike" bag, which has a shredded fill for absorbing more impact. The outslayer would likely be higher quality and firmer. The Title bag would be easier on the joints, but after watching a few of your other videos it looks like I want something firmer in order to strengthen the wrists etc while in wraps. I primarily box with the occasional elbows and knees for self-defense. Curious if you would still recommend these, it looks like you have since switched to Revgear. Thank you!

[@vp2747]

Any updates on the wall mount?

[@magx01]

Good review, quite helpful thank you.

[@hard2hurt]

Your welcome good sir!

[@therealdestructicus]

My weight lifting gym (my MMA gym uses other bags) just got one of these, and remeberd them from your videos, its the 6' thai bag, the thing has to be ateast 150lbs, and hard as a rock. Fun, but also painful.

[@jcipriani88]

What wall mount are you guys using

[@Liquidcadmus]

I really like the design and style of those bags. You will be able to tell just how good they are with grind over time. one thing surprised me though, did they come with filling already?? I didn't know you could get bags with the inside already prepared. maybe you can wrap one of the bags with some cheap towels which you can keep on with some duct tape or ropes. a good layer of towels will make the surface a little softer for people who aren't used to hard bags and newbies.

[@hard2hurt]

Yeah they came prefilled. I cater to a little higher end clientele I dont know that wrapping them in blankets and towels would fly with them hahaha.

[@Liquidcadmus]

yeah, I guess it wouldn't look so good haha

[@hard2hurt]

@Paul Brasfield it is about 4.5 feet tall without the straps, 14 inches in diameter sounds about right. The link in the video description had all the technical specs on it.

[@hard2hurt]

@Paul Brasfield I am not exactly sure... but on the receipt they are listed "black/orange"

[@hard2hurt]

@Paul Brasfield I have a cheaper bag at home that is softer but that was so my family could hit it too.

[@jonathanbriere6497]

What is the length (height) of the ones in your review? Thanks!

[@SteveMe21685]

So did you buy it filled or unfilled? I’m slightly confused by the fact that they say a 100 lb. bag is 300 lbs when filled...so is the bag only one third full when it’s “unfilled”?

[@hard2hurt]

I got mine filled because I wanted them to be even, consistent and done properly. Outslayer recommended them filled. I dont know about 300lbs or where that came from. They dont weigh 300 lbs though I can lift then by myself fairly easily.

[@cglasford1]

I know I'm late to the game but why not go with the slightly longer Muay Thai bag?

[@goodcitizen3780]

They do it because the Muay Thai bags are about 14" so slimmer. Not as analogous with the human body. These heavy bags are also more forgiving with the wild punches. Muay Thai bags force better precision and allows for legs kicks. I say get the Muay Thai bag and hang it low.

[@armandogomez7061]

How high is the bracket from the ground? And how long is the bag? Also, how high is it from the ground? If you don’t mind answering. Thanks

[@joshydep84]

Do you have a recommended for home Thai bag? I'd like a bag and stand that hangs lower for training leg kicks. I'm a beginner but don't really mind a material that will toughen skin and bone if you think the Outslayer is the way to go.

[@stluciestrength]

Good review. Could I get the banana bag but continue to use my Everlast stand? The stand is at least 6 feet high. Maybe higher. Anybody know? Thanks

[@chadfreeman8686]

What kinda wall mounts are the bags hanging from? Looking for something similar.

[@Asuma492]

Hey thanks for always sharing your gear info and providing links it helps so much.

[@dashacon1]

Thanks for the video and review. I want to get a bag at home, i'm no pro but i want a great quality bag thats not too hard. I really like the look of the outslayer bag but it is a bit pricier than other bags and everyone is sold out at the moment, even the everlast bag you recommended. I used to do Kickboxing 5 days a week and LOVED it! So do you think i can still go for the Outlast or Everlast Bag?

Would this be great for shin conditioning and are there MMA bags long enough for low kicks

[@echofoxtrotwhiskey1595]

Get a 6ft Thai bag for low kicks.

[@catastrophicending9560]

Pretty expensive bag. Any idea what they fill it with at the factory? Have you ever filled one yourself? Recommendations?

[@knifesharpeningnorway]

Know how the top ten 180cm 70kg bag is?

[@futbol1972]

I need a home bag. IAM 17 years old 170lbs that wrestles and has trained in boxing and muay thai. Was looking at those water bags so my dad could use it too cause is easier on joints but don't know which one to get 4ft, 5ft 80 vs 100lbs bag..my dad wants to hung it in 8foot ceiling garage. By the way my dad is 48 in great shape but he will be using it just to workout.

[@futbol1972]

Is the outslayer bag hard, soft or in the middle? Don't want a hard one cause my dad is gonna use it too and he has some tendonitis in his elbows. Any ways don't know if I should get unfilled one $134 or the pre filled one for $350 😥. There is a big difference in price so I don't know if it is supper difficult to fill one up and also how expensive would it be to fill it up to about 100lbs? Somebody told me I can use just old clothes to fill it up?

[@ightimmaheadout290]

I've heard that's it is very firm. So that would probably mean very good for boxing, and "solid" for kicks/knees/elbows. So, it's probably not soft

[@futbol1972]

which one to get an 80lbs or 100 lbs? 5ft or 6ft to hung it in my 8ft ceiling garage? I will be using it for boxing and muay thai too. I already have a 45lbs round water uppercut bag and a double end bag too..I used to fight in muay thai and also did some boxing while I was still competing in wrestling. Now I just wrestle but like to hit the bags still:) Been looking at the teardroo bags too but I think I can get more out of a full bag, what do you think?? My dad will be using it for cardio too

[@trippnroll]

If you're gonna be doing lots of muy Thai , definitely get the 6ft, If you're gonna box and do some higher kicks then get the 55inch

[@omaromzz2308]

Thanks for the review brother. If ur in the bad mf stage is this a solid bag for conditioning the heck oit of shins elbows kneees knuckles?

[@best4businesswrestling]

can we get a video on your opinion on khabib vs conor? and tony vs pettis?

[@hard2hurt]

Ha probably not. I don't actually follow combat sports closely enough to have a qualified opinion. I do think khabib and Conor is a coin flip though. People dont realize exactly how much danger Chad Mendes had Conor in... I think Khabib could easily wrestlefuck him but Conor could just as easily tag him.

[@best4businesswrestling]

hard2hurt I think Conor will starch inside 2 rounds if Khabib doesn’t find rhythm closing distance

👍🏼 good shit! Good content! New subscriber 🙌🏼

[@geneerojackson5]

How would u rate outslayer to revgear?

[@futbol1972]

I really want a soft bag even if is not gonna be that durable..i have elbow tendinitis.. I wanna use it for boxing and muay thai so I was thinking maybe an 80 to 100lbs 5 feet bag can work for my needs? My 18 year old is a wrestler and used to fight in muay thai and did some boxing too..he really likes the tear drop bag because all the movement it has. However, I feel I can get more out of a regular heavy bag??he hates banana bags because they just sit there and don't really move. Lol. I only have room for one bag since I already have a round 12" ( 35-40lbs) water 💧 bag and a double end bag.

a flying sidekick? "showoff" . I thought those bags looked good ,I thought they were brand new actually. I've actually learned a lot about kurotty..purely academic. Okinowan te. it was so freaking different before Japan got hold of it. before I go out in left field ,you like kyokushin ? opinions? also are you getting a fight going? or training more? idk. So with that intro how about kicks with leaping ,jumping ,flying ever practical? or don't bother?

Are those X-Mark Wall Brackets look pretty good...Just wondering, are those walls brick/stone , or are they dry wall with wooden studs? Just wondering what's holding those mounts. Thanks!!

[@hard2hurt]

Just drywall and studs. The brackets go in 3 studs. Been up 18 months with light to moderate use now and no issues.

[@hard2hurt]

The two up front get heavy use (those are the two I use) and they are solid

[@pmaison]

@@hard2hurt Cool...Since most drywall studs are 16 inches on center, are the two brackets that flare outward 32 inches apart, with the main bracket directly in the center stud? Sorry for the detailed questions, it's just that I really like that set up but it's hard to gauge the dimensions on the video because of the movement. The XMARK website doesn't give those dimensions either...Thanks again for being very patient and helpful, you've done an excellent job on this video review and I'll be checking out your other stuff!!!

Never felt pain like the slaps this bag gives to my shins and instep. I'm going to push through it and try to deaden the nerves in my legs, though. Considering getting shin guards, but hopefully I won't be a pussy after a couple months of hitting this. It's excellent for punches, though. Love the feel of every impact on the gloves.
