My vote is the Rogue. I am biased Bc I have a rogue... and I haven't seen a Dakotah in person. My rogue has broken in but for mine, the slouching is only on the top corners. It's still stands upright on its own, it's just the corners move in toward the center. For me the Dakotah reminds me of an off shaped LV Alma, which I'm not to crazy about. It's a pain getting in and out of an Alma without putting it down first for me. Although it's fun to carry around. I feel like this Dakotah would have the same effect imho. I'd love to see which one you end up going for!
