I agree, I don't know why the canvas lining unless it's a weight issue, plus the flap looks crooked in all the photos I've seen. I do like the size though so can't say I won't buy one if the right color comes along.I’m on the fence about this one. Love the colour/shape/size... I actually have 2 vintage ones in this style and adore them. But it’s a lot to pay for canvas lining! Seems like all the other originals have leather lining except the Rambler.
