I think the tye dye is kind of gross looking. :/ I think it's something I might wear once or twice to a 60s party or hippie convention, but other than that, no way.

I personally don't like it but if you like it that is all that counts. Does it really matter if your friend or BF do not like it since you are the one carrying the bag? I always buy and go with what I love.

I've never liked tie-dyed anything, so it's definitely not for me.

Yeah there's definitely a part of me that LOVES tye dye. When I first saw it I wasn't a fan...but I keep looking at it and loving it more and more.

It's not my style, but if you love it who cares what anyone else thinks. Wear it with confidence

I like the bag, I like tye dye, but I don't think I would pay more than $150 or so for a bag that is mostly canvas and highly seasonal/trendy. And while I love tye dye, the various shots I've seen of the MAB look like they were trying to cram too many colors in and it got muddy. I thik there is going to be a lot of variation in these bags.

Thanks for your opinions! And thanks sunseasaltylife, because I was actually going to ask what parts of the bag were leather. I'm assuming just the yellow trim, and that the rest is canvas. Agh. This is killing me! It's definitely going to be something I have to think about.

The tye-dye is not my thing.

What is going to happen if water - or any liquid - should hit that bag? Scary thought, because to me it looks like it would bleed and run all over the place. It must be treated or something but still...

I also picture the canvas smelling funny. LOL
