Str8laced Bag Question

I don't know the answer to your question exactly but I'll share an experience that may be related.
A friend let me borrow his Str8laced bag for a couple weeks a while back. That bag was pretty mushy. You could almost fold it in half. Since then I was looking at new Str8laced bags at a local store and those bags were much firmer. They were still light weight but much firmer. They looked the same from what I recall.

Mine started out nice and firm and I loved it. With little use it turned into the mushy fold in half thing. Whatever filling they used broke down so fast and now it’s borderline useless for my needs
I added fill to mine, now it works well. If I need it firmer I tighten it with the cords on the sides. I got it as a Str8laced bag in 13' or 14'. I found the same fill that was used in the bag on Amazon. I can't remember the name of it. If I remember, I'll take a picture of the full bag later.
Id be interested in attempting to refill it to get it back to its former glory days. Id have to stuff a ridiculous amount into it at the start to hopefully get it back to where I want it once it breaks down again but id be willing to try.
Mine did the same thing. I called tab gear about it to see if the y could refill it or change the fill.......still waiting on a returned call.
Here you go. The fill has never broken down on me like you describe. It simply didn't have enough fill in the first place.

Did you just use a seam ripper and then re-sew it? Or is there something easier to do?
I replaced the soft foam beads with a small, slick plastic pellets. Weighs 4-5 lbs. now. Far better suited for my needs.
