If we must talk about this, let me add that
the Contax G system bags match the Coach look
much better.

I have one of the (big) Billingham bag, and I don't really
understand what the big deal (and price) is.  It is
a great bag, but hardly a fashion statement, even if
it's Town and Country, ie. khaki and leather trim.
To me it is as a utilitarian look as it gets.

I once saw B.D. with a LL.Bean (I think) bag of some sort
which I remember which looks nice.  But these days,
a backpack often works better for me with the crowd I 
hang out with.  In the end, we clearly need a bag for
each occasion.
