I need a new bag
Daylight savings time is dragging me down. I’ve been up and running for the last 22 hours without sleep or food and most likely won’t get into bed for the next 12 hours as well, so typical late night grumpiness and paranoia possibly apply to the following post.
My beloved bag is not a year old and i already need a new one. It’s still in perfect shape, these crumpler bags are apparently built for eternity, putting eastpak and their lousy campaign to shame. I really like their products and was on the verge of buying another one today. The problem is that everybody at any university in vienna has one. Perhaps not everybody - there’s still your fair share of dull eastpaks, pumas and adidas’, but it’s almost like crumpler’s the new freitag among vienesse students.
Which leads me to the next troublesome bag brand. I really dig freitag, but a friend of mine convinced me that they are so mid-bubble and that it’s not even ok to carry one with an ironic post-bubble stance. But then again, he also confessed he wants one himself just a few weeks ago. Which reminds me that i haven’t called him far too long. Thank god there’s an alternative label for freitags f-cut bags available, so at least those are a viable option.
Another brand i discovered recently and like a lot is golla. They produce some really nice looking laptop bags, but i don’t have the slightest clue if they are available anywhere in austria and their site isn’t much help either. At least i know someone who’ll go to finland in a few months, perhaps he can pick one up for me then.
Perhaps i should just pick up that gorgeous white armani jeans bag i recently saw. I wonder if it could acommodate an ibook…
