Resting the bag will probably help. I've never had a Neverfull, but it was on my list. I did see one gal with the DE Neverful in GM on a trip close up and it looked HUGE! At least for me, I'm sure it's awesome for travel!The iena is definitely my favorite bag right now. I was always a neverfull girl but I'm finding the iena to be a lot more practical and the straps are a lot more comfier then the neverfull. I'm getting wrinkles on the straps though with only two weeks of use so I'm giving it a rest now.
