It's a discontinued style so it's pretty hard to find. It's one of my HGs now... hopefully one will turn up on RDC.

I love the day bag, but the idea of it being really slouchy bothers me. Is there a difference in slouchiness between leathers?

How about the Shrug? I really love that as well.

I have both and can say both styles are gorgeous! The Day is a lot slouchier due to the handle drop while the Shrug sits higher and its bucket bottom keeps it from losing too much shape when it's full. There are lots of threads on the Day, but here are some threads that might help you consider the Shrug:
