After the almost unforgiveable ridiculously priced bag that more than half of the world wouldn't want to carry :p I'm now liking this messenger bag. very simple but well designed. Noir (black) lambskin, gold-tone hardware, crossbody strap and top handle, side zip pockets, front flap pocket. size : 13 2/5"H x 14 1/10"W x 4 7/10"D currently retails for $1995
