Protec Contego Handle

[sears]

My current cheap gig bag is failing at the handle. The velcro that joins the two parts of the handle together is coming unsewn.

I use the handle more than the backpack straps.

The Protec Contego uses the same kind of handle design. I'm sure it's better made, but can any users tell me how it lasts in the long term? Velcro-ing and un-velcro-ing many times a day?

To avoid it I could go with a Body Glove or (gulp) Mono bag that has a different handle design.

I just got my Protec Contego 3 days ago, so I can't tell anything about reliability, all I can say is that I have to use both hands to open the velcro at the handle.So, it seems to have a better quality than others, including my Rockbag softcase.
