I like Kristens and obviously the Hamiltons. That said, I am not loving those Kristens. I do like the new grey one they have, but I'm not really digging that green with the embossed. And the other two are only okay to me for some reason.
Out of the three hamiltons, I would first eliminate the claret. That's just me though because it isn't the red I am looking for. You said you have one red bag and you got rid of it. Why? Do you think you will use a red bag and that one just wasn't the right red or is red not a color you will use often.
When can you see these irl? As for the distressed, the gold lock they used really bummed me out in person. It's a dark gold. I like the bag much better irl than in pics, but it wasn't a bag for me either. I would say it is more casual and a fun fall bag.
Obviously I like the croc. I also have the bone Maggie, but they are two totally different colors/bags. I will snap a pic of them next to each other when I get home if that would help. Just remind me if I forget. Are you going to get the small or large if you get the grey croc?
