hmm are those the straps on the side that kinda fold the bag up in half ? Those are suppose to come off and on purpose I think, if you need extra room, you take off those straps then attach the shoulder strap on the freed up clip, but if you don't need extra room you can reattach the straps to the clip instead of the shoulder strap and just use the handles..
sudooh, I see what you are saying now.. looking at it again, if someone frequently switches between straps / no straps, the "slit" where the leather strap fasts on to the "stud" does seem like it would start to get "loose"
$1495 versus $836.50 (there are some nice & cheaper options too including waxed canvas)
* I almost went full crazy and bought this Coronado duffle. I may still regret not getting it but it seems slightly too small for my purposes. http://lodgegoods.com/products/coronado-horween-leather-boston-bag

* but I ended up going only half crazy and buying this Korchmar duffle in a darker pull up leather and a plaid lining not shown on their site, which is slightly larger than the Coronado but probably not as over-engineered. Allen Edmonds also sells some Korchmar duffles. Got mine for $518 shipped with coupon code Holiday2015 http://www.korchmar.com/index.php?level2=catalog&level3=item_detail&item_id=764

They also make this in waxed canvas. I called Korchmar and they were reluctant to let me know which tanneries they source from, but I *think* their pull up leather is Horween Dublin (same as Coronado) based on some of the verbiage used describing this bag. They only go so far as to say texas steer hide, oil (vegetable) tanned leather... all USA made. Their Twain duffle as they continue to call it seems to have evolved for the better over the years in terms of leather and provenance, so I'm pretty interested to see what I get next week.
sudoNice list! I'm a big fan of TBBC Langdale at this price point, but if you're looking for something that's an upgrade from it I recommend the Ernest Alexander Bedford. It's what I use :)
Well.. just got mine, and a button on the handle wrap is broken. I sent a message to Massdrop support. We'll see how things turn out I suppose...
I previously purchased the BB(elt)C's Kingston Satchel and was happy with that, and I fully understand that there is always a defect percentage for any company/product, so it's not that big of a deal to me at the moment, but just posting here in interest of full disclosure so others know of not just the good, but also the not so good part of my experiences..
Visual representation of the issue at hand:
Hiph-fuI decided to refund.. there was supposedly an unknown waiting period (estimated a month I think) for a replacement, but even if they had ready stock, I'm just not so sure how long this thing would last given what I've seen here now.. Like others, I am very impressed with the waxed canvas, but unfortunately if the locking mechanisms (buttons, clips, leather staps, etc) don't hold up then it doesn't really matter how long the canvas lasts, so I will be returning mine.
btw I am in IT a well (developer)
