Go Custom with STITCH’s Make It Yours SL2 Golf Bag

Golf is an incredible sport. In addition to the unique features and challenges you’ll encounter on each course, one thing I’d like to highlight is that golf is a sport that, unlike many others, without uniforms. Yes, some facilities require you comply with minimum dress requirements (collared shirts, no cargo shorts, etc.), but none require you to wear a specific outfit that would cause everyone on the course to be wearing the same shirt, hats, shorts, etc.

So while there is nearly limitless variability in what you can wear on the course, the sad truth is that variety is severely limited when it comes to certain golf accessories, including perhaps your most noticeable chance for expression—your golf bag.

While golf bag makers generally offer a range of colorways, STITCH Golf has decided to take it several steps further with its Make It Yours (MIY) SL2 Golf Bag.

Starting with their award-winning SL2, STITCH allows golfers to completely customize their golf bag by selecting the color for the bag chassis, strap, and saddle pocket color, plus the option to add initials. And if you ever get tired, STITCH will be releasing additional interchangeable components that can be purchased separately to allow a constant refresh.

And to ensure your bag performs as good as it looks, STITCH has added 50% more storage space than the original SL2 Golf Bag with a new GT saddle pocket designed to carry everything you need for your round, and easily access it with stretch pocket construction.

The MIY SL2’s pockets each feature YKK extra tough zippers built for extreme durability, as well as a magnetic pocket designed to carry a 12-pack of golf balls, plus a felt valuables pocket—perfect for your phone, car keys, or a flask holding some swing oil.

Notwithstanding the near limitless customization, the MIY SL2 remains super lightweight—only 99 oz—which means the MIY SL2 is well suited for duty, whether you’re walking or riding down the fairways.

I am fortunate enough to be one of the first to get a MIY SL2 and instantly went with a colorway that was previously unavailable—a NY Yankees-inspired navy/white combination. When it arrived, I was immediately blown away that this was the exact bag that I had designed on the MIY SL2 website only weeks earlier. Upon closer inspection, two things further caught my attention.

First, the MIY SL2 will allow for future customization—using hidden zippers to attach the saddle pockets to the chassis—without compromising the bag’s construction and durability, and second, the MIY SL2 does have considerably more storage to the prior generation SL2 (which I’ve been using for years now). While I previously had to cram more stuff in pockets than I’d like (forcing me to empty the entire pocket to find something at the bottom), the MIY SL2 allows me to diversify among the pockets and put everything in its place, whether that’s in a side pocket or the center-mounted magnetic pocket—which is super accessible while walking between shots.

On the course, the MIY SL2 was equally impressive. The customization garnered positive comments—along with many several as to where they can get their own—from my club’s starter and playing partners, as it allows the MIY SL2 to stand apart from the more mainstream bags that are covered with OEM branding. Similarly positive was that, despite playing corded grips and an oversized putter grip, nothing got stuck in the MIY SL2’s 4-way top divider.

There are few opportunities to make something actually yours in golf. Yes, you can add stamping to wedges, but even the most creative stamping will never garner the same impact as a custom MIY SL2, especially once you remember that STITCH will allow for future customization, allowing for a number of unique looks that could easily be changed throughout a weekend.

The MIY SL2 is currently available ($448) and waiting for your customization, and with code “GOLFICITY20,” you can get 20% OFF your MIY SL2, along with any other accessories and apparel you order!
