Jypsiere (31 or 34) vs Toolbox 26

[monipod]

this illustrates superbly how the closure system compromises the capacity of the bag
but if you don't need that capacity, it's a very nice style
I knew it didn't suit what I wanted it for at the time,
nonetheless it doesn't stop me from being tempted now.
The Lindy was a good idea for you to consider.
It really is a matter of you having a clear idea of the purpose.
If it is just that you are in the position to treat yourself to a structured Hermes bag, you need to be careful you buy to match a purpose, not just to add another Hermes bag to your collection if you are to be completely satisfied with your choice.

I think the getting in/out of the Jypsiere will eventually drive me mad. I do love the style so much though...

I'll look into Lindy more. I like the capacity so if I need to throw in a light jumper and stuff for travel, it should fit the bill.
