<p>Something like that one^</p>
<p>Agree with Pizzagirl that Coach is very good quality–also, to the best of my knowledge, they will fix or replace it if the hardware fails (which is unlikely).</p>
<p>But OP, you really don’t have to get your knickers in a twist over strangers on the internet responding to an admittedly vague question. You will ALWAYS get opinions here that you may not want to hear.</p>
<h1>20 - That is nice - very classic. I like the brown leather.</h1>
<p>I love brown leather. It may not be something that I get now, but more so "get it if I see the right o</p>
<p>I have a Coach purse and it lasted maybe all of a month. I need to have the hardware fixed. I didn’t use it that often so I was disappointed in the style being so weak.</p>
<p>This thread took a very judgmental turn. For most of my time in college, I carried my books in a Prada nylon bag, and Longchamp was very common on campus. I don’t think any other students will care that much what you carry. Whatever makes you happy.</p>
<p>I like the look of the bag you posted. It’s classic, but it’s also a style that’s currently “in”. I do have concerns that it might be heavy, especially with books, papers, and potentially a computer inside. I would try the bag out before buying it.</p>
<p>When I was in the Air Force, our (female officers) bags were Coach. But their leather IS heavy. </p>
<p>My concern is the fact that, in my opinion, someone is more likely to steal your Coach messenger bag than they would a Jansport one. But that’s just my speculation, of course.</p>
I prefer a backpack, more convenient and the weight evenly distributes on your shoulder as opposed to a messenger bag
