Baggallini Bag?

[teacherme]

I went to buy a Baggallini Messanger Bag but noticed they had two different kinds. Can someone tell me the difference the Nylon or Ripstop Nylon? The Nylon one is about $10 more than the Ripstop Nylon. Before I buy one or the other, I would like to know which is better?

I just received mine a couple of days ago. I went with the rip stop nylon on bagsbuy.com for $19.30 (with the $10 off code). It had a pattern in it & I'm guessing the other material is a bit thicker. I can tell you that the rip stop fabric is very lightweight & comfortable. I bought it specifically for our Disney trip, so I went with the cheaper fabric & am pleased.

Thank you for the response. I think I'm going to go with the cheaper one also.

I just bought the ripstop nylon, too. I had a gift certificate, so I couldn't use the code, but I only paid $3 out of pocket so I guess I can't complain. Before when we've traveled, I've always taken a backpack. This came just as we were leaving for the weekend, so we took it along for a trial run. It was very convenient and worked well. It was just a tiny bit smaller than I would have liked, but otherwise the bag was great!

Ripstop nylon is the same type of material used to make parachutes and hot air balloons. It has sort of a criss cross pattern in it that is probably meant to help the fabric not tear (thus the name rip-stop). I actually ordered mine in Ripstop from ebags, but got the crinkle nylon one instead. I actually really like it. The crinkle nylon has a subtle pattern in it. I think it looks nice.
