Just curious if anyone has any regrets about purchasing a Keepall - did it not hold up like you thought it would? Did it not handle the wear and tear of the airport, I am just curious if anyone has any regrets - thanks! 
Any regrets about owning a Keepall?

As much as I love my keepall, I sort of regret not getting the smallest pegase instead as it gets really heavy carrying around a bag all the time. And of course, when it's mono, I'm afraid to put it down because of the vachetta also, so it has given me a bit more stress than another bag would, but I still love it. However, if you get one, get one with a shoulder strap. It's sooo worth the extra cost.
A while back I had the Keepall...I would NEVER get one again unless it was the keepall 45 without a strap or a vintage keepall. Because I had a keepall 55 with strap and it was soooo annoying, the starp rubs on you even though I had the shoulder pad thingie and the bag was far too big...also it gets easily marked.
Point. I always get scratches and marks on my shoulder after carrying mine around, but it's still better than having to carry it all the time. I'll recommend the OP to get a damier though. vachetta is hell

ITA Damier would be much better choice
I actually think that buying the Keepall or other luggage pieces 2nd hand or vintage is the way to go. Time and time again, I keep hearing that people are afraid to use their luggage -- if its 2nd hand/vintage, there isn't that fear of getting the "first mark".
And there is a Keepall 60 on sale on Let-Trade.com that has a fantastic honey color to it!

Thanks everyone for your thoughts about your Keepalls, I appreciate your honesty.

I love my keepall 45. It's a good weekender bag when I drive to my parents house for the weekend when i feel like going home from school.But for traveling, I use a random black pull and tow thingy, because i don't want to ruin the keepall.
Yea...after reading everyone's responses I am thinking the same thing - thanks!!
Although I think I will go with the 50 instead of the 45 - then again, I'd love to have both - HA! HA!
Someday, only 1 for now. HA! HA!
I love my Keepall, no regrets about it at all. I actually want either a Damier Azur or Ebene one right now..
I love mine, it's holds a ton. I was super careful with it, but then I realized if it's luggage, itll be marked and I got it for that purpose so I can't sweat it much......besides, I let my dad borrow it once for a business trip he had and he got the FIRST MARK! Bad dad! Now he has his own to mark up, hmph! ..hehe.
