Billykirk Large Carryall.  Looking for a good weekender bag.  Thoughts on this or is there something better in this price range?


Filson, although the indigo one is pretty nice this season from BillyKirk. The bags always look a bit purse-like though

Noobizor, those are fugs. But if you do decide to get them, paint them. Use white liquid shoe polish. Something like this:

Red checks are cool. If those are Saturday's, I have a pair and I'm really happy with them. Nice fabric, great cut, good coloration. TTS

US Alteration. Know nothing about the brand but the price is decent and I like the detailing.

Picked this up as a spring coat, but I'm not sure if I'm gonna keep it. Convince me one way or the other? EDIT: It does *not* do a fishtail thing in the back. I am an idiot... Anyway, it's simple and easy to wear—but I'd like to hear some other people's thoughts.
