Well if you only gonna carry a couple of small stands and umbrellas won't the Manfrotto bag be a good fit ?

Thats about the same size as the bag I have now, I would like to find one a bit larger.

Dear LITTLEJON DSGN,

Given your criteria, possibly these...

Lightware C6150 Stand Sack/Bag:

Photoflex TP 842 Transpac Outbound Bag:

As you know, once you start putting your desired 4 lightstands, grip stuff, etc. into any bag, the weight & bulk starts to add up!

Like so much of this photography stuff, it is an iteration process and individual solutions preferences.


Personally I use these for weddings/events...
Manfrotto LBAG110 bag:

with ideally DIY two-braced rubber casters on bottom http://www.homedepot.c​om …aster-4037345EB/203672418 , if a lot of walking involved.
OR
my relatively compact Profoto TROLLY BAG [with DIY light-weight reinforced sides & TSA locks (no zippers exposed for ball-point pen type theft-entry) for air-travel]:

Just one view...
Good luck on finding a solution best for your needs.

I use a couple of these Tamrac 328 Professional Location Bags to carry my light stands. I don't know if they are made any more but if you can find some or a similar product, you would do well.

I've been using a golf bag to carry most of gear for years and they seem to work well.

In relation to a shoulder carry bag this one from Amazon may work for what you are looking for and isn't expensive.

The bag that I use has wheels on it and I'm looking to upgrade to a hard case model which should work better for me.
