If you have even the slightest sense of self-awareness, you should have at least a vague idea of your faults. Perhaps my biggest fault is my never-ending search for the “perfect” golf bag. Just when I think I’ve found the right bag, I find something I hate about it and move on. I doubt there’s a bag I haven’t tried. You may recall that I was a big fan of Stitch but you know what they say: tastes change. Just as my taste was changing, that’s when Jones came along.
I came across Jones by a bit of a fluke but as soon as I saw their bags and heard what people had to say about them, I was hooked. I’ve been gaming their regular navy Trouper bag since the beginning of the year and I absolutely love it. However, it’s what happened just weeks after receiving my Trouper that really made me swoon. Think of Audrey Hepburn’s interactions with Cary Grant in 1963’s Charade and you’ll know what I’m talking about.
At this year’s PGA Show, Jones announced the launch of their Heritage Collection which, according to them, embodies the pinnacle of their legacy and consists of premium pieces that honor the past while elevating modern performance. Time and time again, I mention that with my equipment, apparel and accessories, I’m constantly looking to bridge the gap between traditional golf and the game’s modern, “sporty” nature. Simply put, through the Heritage Collection, especially the Heritage Trouper, Jones has done it perfectly.
For now, the Heritage Trouper comes in two colors: green and black. I’m a big fan of the green bag but, then again, I’m a sucker for a good green golf bag. I got my green Heritage Trouper on Saturday (Happy Valentine’s Day to me!) and, on first impressions, I’m extremely impressed. The vegan leather feels great but, most importantly, the bag is still very lightweight. Doing a hand-in-hand comparison to my regular Trouper, there is little to no difference in weight.
Another thing that really makes the Trouper stand out is its five-way, full-length dividers with one specifically designed for your putter, which significantly reduces club tangle. For $375, this bag is cheaper than a lot of its competitors in the premium bag space, is lighter, and without question looks a lot better. If it performs anything like the original Trouper, the Heritage Trouper has some serious potential.
As the old adage goes, “It’s the little things that count,” and Jones has definitely taken that to heart. With the Heritage Trouper, no detail seems to have gone unnoticed. The gold-plated logo on the back of the bag paired with the white and brown leather accents look incredible together. This looks like a bag you’d see in Sleepy Hollow’s pro shop or on the links at Felixstowe Ferry and, in both settings, it looks like a literary dream brought to life. If you’re in the know, I mention Felixstowe because this is the kind of bag I picture Professor Parkins, the “protagonist” of M.R. James’ famed ghost story, “Oh, Whistle, and I’ll Come to You, My Lad” using—and that is a compliment of the highest order.
As part of the Heritage Collection, Jones has also released duffle bags, rangefinder pouches, crewneck sweatshirts, T-shirts and dopp kits, fully demonstrating their philosophy that golf is a lifestyle above anything else. I can’t wait to get my Heritage Trouper on the course and will report back once I’ve had the opportunity to put it in play. Until then, on aesthetics and feel alone, this is easily one of the best releases of 2026 and it’s a bag that’s going to be easy to fall in love with. Jones is simply that good.
