Great review! I bought this same bag and the metallic silver one and ended up selling both! They just felt too big for me to carry! I love the tempo and even though it’s a big bag too it “feels” a little smaller to me.
I have the Magenta Stripe & was so confused when I couldn’t find a cell phone pocket recently! I had to LOL when I saw you point out the cell phone pocket location! Thank you!! 😂
I have been on the fence about the Paddle. My fave is the Zipliner. I would love a Zipliner version with the same current exterior, but with a Camper interior and slightly more depth. Nice to see your videos again. 🙂
I am still on the fence about this bag. I do love that the brushed marina has returned. I think that is such a gorgeous color! I am ambivalent about the starfish. I don't hate it, but it definitely would not have been my first choice.
I purchased the exact same bag and will be using it as a travel bag (it's too big for a commuter/work bag for me as well). I wish Lug would consider adding "convertible" trolley sleeves to some of their larger totes. A bag that size needs a pocket in back; even if it ends up doing double-duty as a trolley sleeve. I love the ocean : ) but if you remove the embroidered key ring, what's left is kind of blah. I would have preferred the standard, metal key fob. Thank you for the review!
I didn’t get the Pulley. I use the Dory XL as it holds a lot and has the 2 inside de phone and sunglass pockets, like the Dory and Dory XL. I haven’t used my indigo Skyliner as I like having a crossbody strap and that’s why I’ll probably be selling it. Btw, I’m a CA 2 hrs from the central coast, but not crazy about the starfish design either. I do love collecting starfish shells and found a perfect one when visiting Isle of Palm, SC 2 weeks ago! Sadly, it broke on one of my flights home.
I really like the charm bar and pretty cursive logo being centered at the top, but I can definitely understand why many people wouldn’t. I like somewhat flashy styles 😅 I like the zipper pull but wish we could pick from different embroidery. I’m not a huge ocean person either (when it comes to decor.)
This would be a great personal item bag for the plane. I agree with you about the lug logo and charm bar being too much. I think the charm bar looks plasticky and cheap. If you dont like the embroidered starfish, you could use a pair of tiny embroidery scissors to cut the threads and remove them.
I feel like you're really struggling to show the bag as you're sitting too near the camera. I really hope you can sit a bit further away , position your camera steadily at the product, so we can see it properly. I think Amanda Perkins do a great video of Lug bags to truly show off their sizes and the bags are easy to see as her camera shows a full view of the bags
Nice to see your videos again.
Thank you!
I bought the sand taupe and love the ocean themed lining and key fob :)
Sand taupe is my usual choice!

HA! Glad i was able to help! i actually REALLY like this cell phone location. It might be my favorite part of the bag.

Same. I still bought it and I like the oversized tags, but I wish they had a plain option, ya know?
I love this bag
How does the size compare to the Apollo? What size is your laptop?
Do you have the Apollo tote? I think that’s a nice sized tote bag 😃
I did, but I didn't love the quilting...:)
I’m on the fence with this bag or the Cabby.
I am the same! Can't decide ;)

This bag reminds me of my current favorite the skyliner. How does it compare size wise to the skyliner?
It's a lot bigger. This is a carry it all kind of tote. the skyliner is more streamlined.

Did you try the soprano or Cabby? I’m trying to find a work bag too
I haven't tried the Cabby. I didn't like the soprano....
I was trying to decide if I wanted this bag and thanks to your video I think I do. 🙂. Now , just trying to figure out what color?! 🤔
What color is SO HARD TO PICK!!!! Good Luck!

I am with you 100%

This would be good for the plane!
I like Starfish.
Do you own much of their ocean prints? (Star and Sand Navy? Sealife Blue?)
@@lugunplugged , Yes, I do. I just acquired the steamboat in Stars and Shells Navy after a 2 year hunt.
Please put focus more on the bag , I can see you talking but not enough on the whole bag! Thanks
