I love bags. I don’t know why. But I definitely have a problem. I found the perfect messenger bag. And the perfect backpack. And now I think I have a perfect duffel/weekender bag. The definition of perfect: when the delicate balance of style and function is reached.

These bags by Herschel Supply Co are from Scotland and have two distinctive features: pinstripe inside and a shoe compartment. The pinstripe is really sharp and sets it apart from a junky duffel. There’s also a hard bottom that is removable… haven’t decided if I am going to use it or not.

Aside from that, there is nothing really terribly exciting besides a wonderfully simple high-quality duffel. Nice leather details with plastic loop holes. I had originally ordered the Outfitters Large but although it said it was only 2 inches of difference (24in vs 22in)… it felt so much bigger. It also featured steel loops for the shoulder strap which were already worn as the one I got was the floor model. The only thing I really like from the Outfitter was that they had these big hand straps on the ends of the bag. It was also twice as expensive… the Novel retails for $79.99… I got mine on eBay for $50.

So we finally got to Scotland! It was amazing… we had the best time. We flew into Edinburgh, drove up to Aviemore, then to Kyleakin, around Isle of Sky, back down through the Trossachs and 11 castles later… back to Edinburgh. I’d have to say the Isle of Sky was just AMAZING and an absolute must. More beautiful than Ireland. So much history. And contrary to popular belief… some really good food!
