I totally agree with the others about the Nomad being superior to the Chelsea in several ways. The leather is smoother, And the colors are more vibrant, especially the burnished colors like green and denim blue. Now that you know the crossbody Nomad has a zippered closure, you may want to shell out a little more. (It's easy to spend other people's money, isn't it?)

BTW, I bought my regular sized Nomad last year when the line debuted, in the gorgeous green (forgot official name), but I did wait for the first 25% discount event. My green one is a bit hard to match with my wardrobe, but it's stunning and people notice it. And it IS a little stiff, so I couldn't wear it daily anyway. Not having a zipper doesnt bother me. If I didn't already own a Nomad I'd jump on the burnished denim blue -- *drooling*...

Keep us updated -- I'm only into the Coach brand for about four years -- many folks in here are true veterans, haha.

Good luck!

You folks have convinced me! I ordered the crossbody Nomad last night! Thank you all for your help!

Ooh! Good to know about the crossbody! It sounds really well made. Ah, decisions!
The Nomad crossbody is smaller than either of these two. For me, either of these bags would be too big. They are both pebbled leather; the crossbody nomad is smooth glove-tanned. I like the idea of the outside pocket on the turnlock.
