I thank you for sharing. I've never heard of Tumi until now.

My current leather bag is designed exactly like that $275 Tumi bag. My bag was $40 from Wilson's Leather Outlet in Gilroy, California, (408) 842-7488. I bought two (brown and black) for $80. I've been using the black bag everyday since Christmas, and it's only getting better with wear.

Tumi's nylon bag for $195 is way too pricey for a small nylon bag. I'm a little confused. What else does it do besides be a small nylon bag?
