Trend? .. phasing out the City Style?

I think it's interesting that Balenciaga would choose to discontinue their moto bags while someone like Rebecca Minkoff is coming out with essentially that same style with her Regan collection.

I live in NYC and do see a lot of women carrying motorcycle Bals as well, myself included.
I agree Bal should not discontinue the motorcycle bags. However, the RM Regan is from a few years ago just fyi.
