Help choose between Longchamp and MBMJ

[viba424]

I have no camel bags so while I don't NEED a new bag, I thought it would be nice to add a camel color to my collection for fall.

Which do you think would be better, if price were equal? The MBMJ suede I fear may be delicate, but the color is nicer and the straps are very functional. The base is square, I would hope it would smoosh down over time. The back side is leather so I could flip it for another look.

The Longchamp is soft, classic, smells great, is made in France but may not be desirable if I need to carry heavier stuff. Its got more pockets than the nylon bags and a pretty brown lining.

Which do you think I should keep? I own 3 nylon LC and no MBMJ. Dont be afraid to tell me if I shouldnt keep either!

Keep the Longchamp. Suede leather gets dirty easily and is difficult to take care of.
The Longchamp is lighterweight and roomier.
It's MIF too!

Longchamp.

Suede is a pain to care for, and is too difficult to clean.

Another vote for the Longchamp.

Longchamp! I just ordered this bag in black. This has compartments unlike the regular nylon Longchamps.

Both lovely, but another vote for Longchamp; the durability is great and a gorgeous leather!

I have that same Longchamp bag and it's quickly become one of my favorites. They leather is amazing, it's so lightweight and comfortable, the color goes with everything, and the fact it's made in France is an awfully nice bonus. [emoji6]

Longchamp. I've come to believe they are the best handbag value-for-money out there! And as someone else said, suede can be hard to maintain,

On the longchamp boat.. sorry but Suede is harder to maintain, LC leather is buttery soft!

Another Longchamp vote from me. The MBMJ is nothing special IMO.
