@lordbowen I bought a brown one the last time around, figuring $18 wasn’t that much of a gamble, and I got a major (and welcome) surprise at the quality of the thing. I usually buy only genuine leather, but the “vegan leather” used for this handbag feels and acts very close to the real cow stuff. It’s heavier and sturdier than most fake leather, the stitching is even, and the overall construction is impressive. All things considered, I’m very pleased with it, especially for the price. I’m trying to talk myself into buying a black one, but I’ve been on a stress-fueled buying spree for five weeks, and I just can’t justify a second handbag. If it weren’t for the spending spree, which so far totals a credit-card denting [mumble-mumble] dollars, I’d buy the second bag in a heartbeat.
if any of the meh gods are monitoring this I think the description should say “if you now have” not “if you now how” just trying to help but it may bother me more than it should
Actually I got 2 of them from meh a while back. My wife loves them (and she is very picky). They are well made and have a lot of compartments. I would grab them for gifts this holiday season.
@nfi I’m glad I’m not the only fan of these bags! Despite the snark of the resident heathens :::waving cheerily at said heathens::: the handbags are surprisingly well made. And I’m inordinately fond of the guitar-strap design.
If I recall correctly in the late 60’s or early 70’s we just called them a pouch or bag. Only difference between these and those is we didn’t have the lining in them and of course we had more tassels Which I think is an upgrade so when you spill medicinal herb-age in them it’s easier to find.
@Jeshua From a vegetarian/animal rights activist: because it’s just weird‐in‐an‐amusing‐way to read “vegan [something that explicitly comes from animals]” or similar terms. Vegetarian chicken, vegan leather, eggless eggs… there’s not a better way to describe them, but on the surface, it’s contradictory enough to tickle some people’s funny bones.
Sorry for dissecting this comedy frog, I just—wait. Dammit.
So does the front page also use Mehdown? Because I’m noticing a lot of the formatting is a little off, and there appear to be some mistyped Mehdown codes around the song titles.
I have the SAME question…I thought it was a Man-Bag, until I saw the clip from THE VIEW, and heard they were selling them on MORNING SAVE (which only seems to have “girl-stuff” - and yes, I know they are a subsidiary of Meh…)
If these were a messenger bag shape, I’d probably buy one. I’ve had the same cloth type messenger bag forever. I love it, but it also loves cat hair. I have to lint roll the thing whenever I use it.
Hey, my wife is very picky and she loves the one I got her several months ago. Uses it all of the time and is thrilled to be able to get the black one. No meh if the wife is happy!

My current purse needs to be replaced. The comments from past purchasers sound promising. I just hope the tassels can be removed easily. I even watched the video.

@medz Due to the exchange rate, this song is know as Mambo #6.32 in Canada.
I was more excited during mehrahthon day this stuff makes me sad
@sp3ar maybe the omnipotent meh knows you deserve to feel bad
Just remember to tell your friends and yourself, it’s a handbag not a purse.
@kishkan “European carryall” is the socially accepted term I believe
@kishkan ‘Plus it’s not a man purse, It’s called a satchel. Indiana Jones wears one.’
Love the look of these, but vegan leather? Meh.
@lordbowen but since cows are herbivores, isn’t cow leather by definition vegan?
@nolrak
@lordbowen Not vegan leather. Virgin leather.

@lordbowen You mean…you mean…they make leather out of vegans?? Guess I’m gonna keep eating beef…
Oops, this is not a fuku-style bag filled with audio gear stolen from a Santana tour bus. Pass.
they talk about the bag at 5:20
@communist And it is an advertisement for morningsave.com! We didn’t get a red option here, though.
That strap look too thin to comfortable.
@radi0j0hn It’s not thin at all; it’s quite sturdy, and it’s wide enough not to cut into my shoulder.
if any of the meh gods are monitoring this I think the description should say “if you now have” not “if you now how” just trying to help but it may bother me more than it should
@don Oops, thanks for that. I fixed it now. Have a $1 coupon code: THANKSFORTHAT
Needs more tassels.
If there is a $20 bill inside, I’d be happy to pay $18 for it.
@Pavlov Dinner tonight was actually chicken (and chickpeas).
@huja
@huja What would you be happy to pay for it, if Carlos left a dooby in it?
Yeah! Girl In a Coma!
@Blahbbs Congratulations, you’ve found the only context in the world where that sentence doesn’t make you sound like a terrible person.

@nfi Where is your order confirmation?

Why is vegan leather funny?
@Jeshua From a vegetarian/animal rights activist: because it’s just weird‐in‐an‐amusing‐way to read “vegan [something that explicitly comes from animals]” or similar terms.

Sorry for dissecting this comedy frog, I just—wait. Dammit.
I guess I don’t think being kind to animals isn’t funny.
@Jeshua No…especially when you’re one of the vegans that they skin.
So does the front page also use Mehdown? Because I’m noticing a lot of the formatting is a little off, and there appear to be some mistyped Mehdown codes around the song titles.
Not my bag, man.
It’s in the bag.
earwormed
GOD DAMMIT, MEH!!!
OK…how many vegans does it take to make one of these bags??
@eeterrific Depends on how much lotion it puts on it skin.
I want to know where I can get the smock (hippie shirt) dude is wearing! I’m sorry, but I miss the 70’s. lol We knew how to have FUN!
@Tadlem43 It helped to be young at the time.
@smilingjack LOL Well, that IS true! But it was still fun!
So it’s a MAN-Purse?
I have the SAME question…I thought it was a Man-Bag, until I saw the clip from THE VIEW, and heard they were selling them on MORNING SAVE (which only seems to have “girl-stuff” - and yes, I know they are a subsidiary of Meh…)
@comics360 anything can be a man bag if you just believe in yourself
Would you like me to drag my bag across your face?
If these were a messenger bag shape, I’d probably buy one. I’ve had the same cloth type messenger bag forever. I love it, but it also loves cat hair. I have to lint roll the thing whenever I use it.
@RiotDemon Wouldn’t it be easier to just lint roll the cat? lol
Got both colors for the wifey and she loves them but selling the same thing a month later? Disappointed!
I keep thinking of this when I see the name Carlos Santana.

@kuoh As a NE Ohio sports fan, I fall into the Baseball category…
Dude that wrote this one up - Thank you!
I didn’t know about the other brother. Absolutely love the sound, man. My hat’s off to you.
/giphy painstaking-fleecy-kitten
Based on the good reviews I had to at least give it a try.
Hey, my wife is very picky and she loves the one I got her several months ago. Uses it all of the time and is thrilled to be able to get the black one. No meh if the wife is happy!
If only being Carlos Santana cool were this easy.
