Which Baggallini??

[diane358]

I'm hearing a lot about Baggallini. I went on the web site but there are a lot of different styles.

Which is the popular style people use for the park?

Is the material of the Baggallini's similar to the 80's style Le Sport Sac bags?

here's a picture of mine (had a bad habit of leaving all the zippers open. Its made out of a type of rip stop

I checked out their website too after lurking around here for awhile.

I think I am going to get that backpack one that folds up. I am interested in what the material is like too. It dries quick?

We are going on our first family trip to WDW the end of August and our stroller does not have a big basket underneath(Chicco) so I need something.

Last time I went was in 3/2002 for 1 day at Epcot with DH. I was pregnant so we did not do much. But we sure did not need all this "stuff" that we do now with 3 kids.

I refuse the fanny pack!

Just returned from a trip to wdw and used my messenger. I got mine in Marshalls for 14.99. I really liked it. It was comfortable to wear. I sometimes wore mine backwards so that the bag was towards the front. I enjoyed having the water bottle pocket as well as the phone pocket which is on the strap. It was closer to my ear and i was always able to hear my phone ringing or feel it when it was on vibrate. I returned a travelon bag with magnets as I was afraid I would demagnetize my cards. I will say I have joined the masses on these boards that love their baggallinis.

I also have the messenger bag. I found mine at QVC. I LOVE it. The compartments are perfect for travel!

I use the messanger bag and love it. Dh and DD(8) use it everyday as well. It is big enough for a jacket, poncho or sweatshirt but not so big that you feel like you have a weight around your neck. We love all the pockets and the water bottle holder. After the stroller years this is a great replacement.

It's much smaller than the messenger but I made it work. I am not able to carry a strap on my shoulders for long periods so I adjust the strap and wear it around my waist most of the day. When I want to wear it as a purse, it quickly converts back to a shoulder bag.

I would carry the larger messenger bag if I could, though, so I could fit more stuff.

I am new so I cant post URLs yet, but I ordered the Ripstop nylon baggallini messenger at ebags.com for $31.49.

Have fun shopping!

I ordered the messenger bag for our upcoming trip. It looks very roomy and it seems like the material would dry quick if it got wet. I am excited about it. It is going to be much better than the normal fanny pack that I wear.

The material does remind me of the Le Sport bags. It's nice, though. A good size. I got the messenger bag...http://http://www.ebags.com/baggallini/messenger_sling_bagg_rip_stop_nylon/product_detail/index.cfm?modelid=18644

just got my baggallini messenger bag and I LOVE IT! I was a diehard backpack girl, but this may reform even me!

I asked this on another thread, but it was old so no response. Is the Baggallini Messenger only confortable when worn across the body? I like to sling bags over my shoulder, so I'm wondering if that is an option with this bag, or would it feel awkward?

I would love to hear an answer to this as well.

I just went and tried mine out to see if it was comfortable when worn over just one shoulder. It still is!! When worn over the right shoulder the bag is more toward the front of your body(more comfortable to me). When worn over the left shoulder, the bag hangs more toward your back. I had to shorten the straps but both ways are still comfortabe, as the straps are nice and wide and not heavy.

I am reading this thread with interest. I, too, have always been a diehard backpack girl. I carry so much to the parks.............wipes, moleskin (already cut), antibacterial gel, ponchos, etc. I am so afraid this will not hold everything. I also like having a water bottle pouch that I can clip my misting fan to. (I use the small clip on fans.) Will this bag hold all of that? I think I would like the one strap because I think it would be more convenient.

I am considering ordering from ebags using the code that StarbuxNY so kindly posted. I have never ordered from them before. Are they safe/reputable? Has anyone used them already and received your bag? How long did it take to arrive after ordering?

 

[MickeyNicki]

None, what a waste. I bought the messenger and it barely stays shut and I dont carry much with me and it is uncomfortable. I prefer the WDW fanny pack...so much easier

 

[Ashlander]

My husband and I both have the messenger bags. We both love them! We bought them off of ebags with no problem at all!

I LOVE this bag. I have the messenger bag that I ordered from ebags. Great buy. The bag carried everything I need. I find it very comfy to wear. I am short (5'0") and it fits me fine. I wear as the pp pictured. When I get on a ride, I just sling the bag to my side. Never a problem.

As for the pp not getting it to close, not sure why that would happen. There are zippers galore on this bag that keeps everything I need tucked away. I do not think you'll be disappointed. For me, I could not carry a hot backpack on my back all day. LOVE the baggalini.
