Gerard Darel Leather Flap

[jes170]

Hi everyone, first of all this is my first post (other than the intro post) and I think this is a great board.

I would like to ask the GD experts out there if the Leather Flap bag shown on NM and BG websites is really huge. I ordered this based on the pics together with the one with chains but now I realise that it is 21 inches and this seems really huge!. Did I make a mistake? Appreciate any views.

Hi Jes. Welcome!!! I am not sure about the flap, but I have the GD with chains. It is big, but don't think it is too big. It is very soft and slouchy, so it fits nicly under my arm. I bet you will love it. Make sure to posts pics when you get it! Did you get brown or black?

It is SUPER slouchy, an unless you have it stuffed, I don't think it would be too bad.

Thanks you guys! I ordered the leather flap in brown and black and the chain one as well. Mad am I - I know

Will definitely post pics once I get them- they'll have to ship from the US to Asia where I am. Thanks once again.

i like the GD bag with the flap, better than without it. It sort of "focuses" the bag...

Well I've gotten it - 3 of them actually. 2 are the leather flap bags. They are huge but not as huge as I feared , one in brown and the other in black. Will post pics as soon as I can figure out how to do so with my phone

The 3rd bag is the one with chain handles and that is really , really nice. I really love that one.
