I have both bags, the Artsy and the Metis in mono. The Metis is more comfortable and easier to use in my opinion. I'm also thinking about letting go of my Artsy. If your not using her you should let it go.
Get the Metis Hobo!

While I love my 2 artsy's, the fact that you have 3 little ones is enough to suggest you go with the metis hobo. If my child was younger, I prob would of gone with the more worry free bag too.
Sorry to hear you are not loving your Artsy! I agree that the métis is more kid friendly since you can use a longer strap and make it cross body. I will say that artsy gets way more comfortable with time as the handle is broken in (I have an 18 month old and use my broken in artsy all the time no problem). Have fun deciding!

That is what you need to do. If you do not love -do not buy!

Okay everyone! I tried on Ms. Metis and it was more "like" than "LVOE" at first sight so I decided to keep my Artsy. I guess I need to break it in more, thank you all so much!
Glad u were able to check and compare to make sure. Nice to know for certain and not always wonder which one. You can always wrap the artsy handle (to protect it) at those times when you're out and about with the kids. The handle does get comfy with time. It's a beautiful bag. Personally, I find all those inside pockets so useful. Enjoy!
That's how I felt also. I went in yesterday trying to figure out what the heck to replace my Montergueil with. I tried on every Mono shoulder bag they had. I thought the Delightful MM was incredibly comfortable but I just don't know that I love how it ages and I don't think I want a bag with so much vachetta. I went in thinking that Artsy was the one but I'm not sure because it's SO stiff when it's new. I know the handle bends and gets more comfortable with age so it's still a contender. I did try on Metis but like you it was like, not love.
