Yes, I mentioned that bag a few weeks ago, Mike. I put in an order at first; I
decided to retract it when I started to consider how the cost would rise on
being imported to the UK.
I think that I still prefer a Billingham: there’s a slight amount of “flop” to
one of their bags, where as the Peak Design Everyday Messenger looks pretty
rigid. At the moment I still have a Hadley Pro, with end pockets, and a Tenba
DNA Messenger 11 (which is also a bit rigid).
