I just have the speedy b25 in DE. I tried the 30 and it was just too big and felt like a duffle bag on me. I was considering the NF MM in DE as a laptop bag. You really didn’t like traveling with the NF?
I didn't like my NF due to the strap length. I gave it to my daughter to use a diaper bag. I got the Sac Shopping tote. I love the longer shoulder drop. I was thinking of a speedy 35 for travel since it will fit under the seat.

well I didn't like how it was open. It was fine for road trips and ok in the airport. But I didn't like how if I was on a train or in a crowded area looking at signs, maps or my cell for travel info that my bag contents were just exposed. I can only have so much situational awareness when traveling and adding in a big open bag wasn't working for me. I also didn't like how when traveling I really had to dig down in it to find things. Because everything is sorta stacked on top of each other. I like the Speedy 35. I swear it is the same room as my NF MM and things sit in there more like a filing system. And the zipper is perfect :happydance: I am a flight attendant so I travel a lot and I might be a bit more picky than the average traveler.
 
Hi there. I am trying to decide on if I should get a Speedy 30 B. Of course between Monogram and DE. If I go the DE route are people preferring the old leather to the new matte leather? I had ordered the Alma PM DE but it had some issues so I returned today and my store doesn't have it so I'll move onto something I can see first.

Thanks in advance!

I think the fact that the new matte is softer and doesn't scratch is a plus

I have the Speedy B30 in DE in the old leather and my Neverfull MM in DE in the new matte leather. I love the look of the glossier leather in the older style but I love the feel of the new matte leather and it feels softer and more pliable. I can't say which I like better because I like both for different reasons. Good luck on your decision! :-)

Hello all
Have joined the speedy club, don’t know why I waiting soooo long.
Finally took her out yesterday and today, just
I have a question about the strap, I know it’s aged leather but I’m guessing it will patina.
So what do you guys do if you haven’t attached the strap. I’m currently using without. Is it best to leave out of the dust bag??

LOVE
 
I have the giant reverse speedy 30. The strap that comes with it is a little uncomfortable. Has anyone used it with a different strap? I looked at the website but I’m not sure if the reverse strap or the mono strap would match.
