- The bag weighs 4.45 lbs (2.0 kg) and carries a Rotator Stand System with carbon fiber legs.
- It is priced at $309 (£309), positioned below Vessel's $400-plus Player V and Lux Stand models.
- Vessel recommends carrying 10 clubs for optimal comfort, though the bag can hold a full 14-club set.

What changed from the Sunday III?
The material swap is the headline change. Vessel's Diamond X-PAC Ripstop nylon, used on the Sunday III, gives way to a synthetic leather shell on the new model, with hand-stitched detailing on the carry handle and valuables-pocket zipper. The interior divider top, valuables pocket and magnetic rangefinder pocket are velour-lined, and the straps carry the same lining. Waterproof zippers protect the main pockets, and removable garment tether loops let a golfer strap a jacket or sweater to the exterior.
How has the bag performed in testing?
Reviewers have described the Equilibrium 2.0 double strap, with its eight-point swivel mechanism, as adapting well to a carrier's posture over a full loop, and the bag has held up in wet-weather conditions. Golfers with oversized putter grips have found the club dividers snug when the bag is loaded with a full 14-club set; Vessel itself recommends 10 clubs for the most comfortable carry.
Vessel positions the Sunday IV as an entry point into its lineup, sitting below the $400-plus Player V and Lux Stand bags.
