I have had several Altieri bags and have had good luck with all. Please note that there are two grades of bags; student and professional. The pro bags have a red stripe down the seams and the student bags are solid black. This may account for some of the stories of thinner padding. I have a 5/4 CC with a 20" bell and a small F and they are both comfortable to carry on the back or by the handle. Being 6'1" helps too. I purchased my last bag thru David Fedderly. If you are ordering a bag for a piston horn, specify this as you will get a piston stem protector with the bag. This is great for those narrow door frames. TE also has a bag that is made by RB. It is a nylon outer, side loader with pretty good padding. It also has a detachable portfolio that can contain a music folder and accessories. Hope you find one.
