GST vs Medallion Tote

[alouette]

^^^pbi - for those who have the medallion, I've heard some issues with the CC zipper pull falling off or the metal loops coming loose. Do yours feel sturdy when you tug pretty hard to open the zip closure?

prefer the GST b/c has more compartments, and the handles stay better on the shoulder.

i also prefer the gst (i recently bought one) and i chose the gst over the medallion because i liked that it was easier to get in and out of the bag and that the C's on the GST are smaller than on the medallion. the Cs on that medallion were too much for me. but it really depends on what you usually like and what you need in a bag =)

i think i would get one in black and one in beige to spice it up a little. If i had the $$ though i would have the gst, medallion, and cerf tote all in black. ahhhh that would be nice.

I can't help, I have both. For me, they are two different types of bags. I use my GST for work and my medallion tote for the weekends. The medallion tote is way too small for work but the GST is just right.

i love the look of the medallion, but I actually prefer the size, look (on), and strap length (over the shoulder EASILY) of the gst.

I vote for the GST.

For me personally, too similar to do both, at least in same color. I would pick the GST, I think it is iconic in style and will still look great years from now.

I love the GST!

I think they are too similar to get both, but I like the Medallion tote better. GST looks too... something that I can't put my finger on. Maybe too boxy?

I really like how the GST tote looks, but when I try it on it's not comfortable at all. I think it's the structured bottom that keeps it away from my body and makes the outside strap fall off. Now the medallion tote to me, is so comfy. Almost as if I can't even tell if it's there. I don't own either, but have tried both severals times when browsing

Do you wear the medallion tote over the shoulder a lot?
