Well girls, once again it's great to hear everyones opinion and it's helped me make my decision.
Personally I love the bows on the sides however couldn't ever see myself carrying a bag with bows on the front like the new bays style.
Yesterday this bag was a keeper however today I went out 3 times and grabbed my oak Alexa everytime. I think it was Samiyak who asked how I would choose between the two on a day to day basis and that got me thinking.
I pulled the bag out again tonight and there are some marks which are bothering me so I think I'm going to return it and wait until the right Bow comes up.
Thanks to all of you for helping me with the pros and cons, it's much appreciated.
