Sounds like a cheap bag; if it is, sell the one you have and buy a good dent-bag. Otherwise, there's always fabric mending tape, which is pretty tough stuff.

When you're shopping, look for one that will allow you to carry it back-pack style. A friend who received a new Protec bag as a Christmas present from his wife abandoned his hard case and not a month later, slipped and fell squarely on his Besson Imperial euph.

My observation is that when a person falls, he rarely lands square on his back, more usually his posterior. Had my friend been carrying the bag on his back, his euph would have survived just fine.
