Clicky: D'oh! Lo & Sons OG bag

So last night, as a reward to myself I ordered one of the OG bags in the army green color.

http://www.loandsons.com/media/catalog/product/o/g/og-armygreen-front-1200x900_1.jpg

And then this morning they send out the email that they now have two additional colors, including this "raspberry" color that I love.  So, I already emailed and they can't change the color but they would allow me to exchange to the pink.

    See I do too. Part of me wants to get the green and part of me wants to go bold and get the pink.

  • Originally I said to stick with the green, but now I wanna change mine to "other" cuz the blue is soooooo awesome!

    Army green looks more luxe to me than the pink.
  • I LOVE the raspberry!!

    Hmm, never considered that.  Not that I'm the classiest of broads, but still.
  • My thought is if you didn't want the red, why do you want the pink?  But of course, it's up to you :)

    I love pink. Like the bright, obnoxious pink that this is.

    But now I'm really just thinking it's silly and I should just keep the green, which admittedly is awesome and goes with everything.

    I agree with this.

    You should get what you like.  I personally don't care about my things looking luxxe, and always gravitate toward fun (and perhaps obnoxious) pops of color.  Just go with the one your gut says is what you want. 

  • has anyone recieved the bag and can confirm its awesomeness? 
  • I love both colors. But I would keep the green only because if you are using this bag primarily for travel (i.e. dirty airports and plane floors)...the green would probably be less likely to show all the wear and tear.

  • I like the army green (and I considered the pink but ultimately decided against it), and instead got the blue OMG bag. I just felt like the OG bag was too big for my frame (I'm 5'1").

    But anyways- you're asking about the color... I chose the blue b/c it's just enough pop of color for me but still dark/demure/neutral enough to match various outfits. 

  • clevebride-- I thought about that too.  It will look big on me.  But then I compared to my current carry-on bag and it's not that different. I really do want to use it as a weekend bag. The OMG would be a great gym bag for me but not big enough for a weekender.

    315-- like go dawgs said, get the color you really want.  You know my vote but I forgot to mention that I think the pink color makes it look like a diaper bag to me.  Albeit a large db.

    I looked at the dimensions for both the OG and OMG, and the dimensions don't seem that much bigger on the OG, but from the pic on the website, it looks like a noticeable difference (for someone short like me).

    But I see your point too since I DO want to make it a weekender bag, but will 1" width and 1.5" height and 0.5" depth really make that much of a difference to make it a weekender bag? For me, adding another 2 sq. inches didn't seem like it would make a significant difference in being able to pack more clothes, so I went with the OMG bag since it'd fit my frame better. 

    I'm not trying to sway your decision- these are the Qs I asked myself too since I was so "OG vs OMG?" and "blue vs pink vs black?"

    First world problems :) 

    Let me know what your thoughts are! You may sway me to get the OG... and I already had to cancel once when I first ordered the OG in black, then cancelled to get the OMG in blue.

    Mine comes Thursday- I'll post my thoughts as soon as it arrives :)

  • I love bright pink, but I think the army green will be more versatile in the long run and not show dirt/grime.

    This. Plus it would seem to hold up better to travel, too.

    I was holding out for the new colors before I placed an order, but I actually prefer the original colors. I think they're more classic and timeless and will hold up well for a long time. So my vote is army green:) enjoy!
