Ordered this small Bandit from the last FOS and really love it! However, I fell victim to the extra percent off this past weekend and ordered the Beechwood Rogue 25. Here they are side by side and individual shots. I could keep both but don't want to. I'm leaning towards keeping the Bandit because I have so many Rogues, not to mention the Bandit leather is some of the best in my opinion. Thoughts? Cast your vote!

I am not much help because the Bandit isn't a bag that would work for me, so I would say the Rogue, but if you think you would use the Bandit a lot, maybe that one? Since you said you have a lot of Rogue bags?

I’m not a hobo fan so my answer is always Rogue. But the leather on the Bandit is lovely; if you love the bag it’s a good choice. I’m carrying my Beechwood 25 today so I’m biased.:smile:

Weeellll. You could look at it from the perspective of which one could you get later easier. I would think that would be the rogue because people tend not to give up their bandits very often. I like them both.

Good perspective! I gotta be honest, I saw one on Ebay & it was an original one with the chlochett. I know it's a minor thing, but I miss it!

It sounds like to me that the Bandit makes your heart sing more. This is the bag you set out to get, and it seems like you only got the Rogue because it was in the sale. You also mention you have a few Rogues in your collection, and whilst it is a beautiful bag, I would return the Beechwood Rogue and hold on to the Bandit. The Bandit is something different in your collection!

I have many rogues but 0 bandit. My choice is definitely rogue. I don’t like a bag that’s too slouchy. I have a Bedford that satisfies all my hobo needs. So I don’t need bandit

I like the Rogue, but, that's just the thing: I like the Rogue, but you are the one who is buying it. All that matters is what you want.
