One for me (army green) and one for my mom (espresso brown). I immediately bonded with the army green and decided not to exchange for the raspberry pink. I agree with the advice of others that the more neutral green is a better choice for me.
The size is on the large side for a carry-on and bigger than my previous. I could definitely not get away with carrying it as an everyday bag with my not even 5'2", petite frame but for an overnight/travel carry-on it's fine. I am glad I got the OG and not the smaller OMG. The OMG is about the same size as the previous bag I used and it was just not big enough for a weekend trip.
I loooove the organizational features. Seriously, it has a spot for everything I need. Laptop. Check. Shoe compartment. Check. (And what the website doesn't show is that the shoe compartment can roll up if you are not using it.) Slots for phones, pens, other items. Check. Zippered compartments. Check. Two comfy strap options. Check.
Y'all need to stop posting about these bags. I feel like I NEED one now....and since they got the blue one, its been difficult holding back. I'm going to Barcelona in Sept for a week...
NO! I already have a carry-on bag that will be just fine...lol
After you guys talked about it so much, I ended up ordering the OMG in army green. I went for the OMG over the OG since I was looking for something I can carry everyday. And I'm 5'9 so the bag shouldn't be too big at all. Can't wait for it to get here!
Alright- I ordered one! Was debating on the black because I love the lavender interior, but I prefer the exterior of the arm green so I choose that one.
This part of their FAQ sealed the deal for me, since I wanted something that didn't have to go in the overhead bin:
"WILL YOUR BAGS FIT UNDER THE AIRLINE SEAT?
Yes, the bags definitely fit under airline seats, as the bags were designed specifically to be your "personal item" and companion bag to your carry-on suitcase/luggage."

I am kicking myself for not getting both the OG and OMG. I seriously couldn't pick which one. I can't wait to get the OMG bag- it says Monday. Woot woot.
315- Do you think your OG is big enough for a weekend's worth of traveling?
315- Do you think your OG is big enough for a weekend's worth of traveling?
Yup. Maybe not in the winter with boots and bulkier outerwear, but for me it's the perfect size. I'm a fairly light packer but I still do like to bring things like my travel hair dryer and a few comfort items.

Dang- can you fit a travel hair dryer and a few comfort items in it as well as pack a weekend's worth of clothes? Man, maybe I made a mistake ordering the OMG. I guess I'll wait on Monday and see how it looks and how much I can fit!
This board is dangerous for my bank account! I just ordered the OG in black since Joanis reminded me that the code only works til Monday. I travel a ton for work and most times it's for 2-3 days at a time so I think this is a good investment. Right?
And you're going to love it! I think this board alone will keep Lo & Sons in business ;D
I'm glad you went with the green, 315. I think it looks so nice. I can't wait to try it out at the ended the month when I travel.

I got my espresso brown OG on Wednesday and I looooove it. It is so lightweight and the organization of it is fantastic. Like 315 said, there is literally a pocket for everything. There are even pockets that I have no idea what to put in lol
I'm really happy I went with the OG as opposed to the OMG, if it were any smaller it just wouldn't make sense for me travel-wise. I can't wait to try it out when we head to Maui over Memorial Day weekend!

Oh my God you guys are trouble...I didn't post on the F&B section of TN, but decided to check it out here and I am loving those bags. Especially the travel tote..something that's actually water resistant? Yes, thank you!
I am trying really hard to not order the OMG bag. It looks so awesome, but I really, really don't need it. I only fly about twice a year, and I already have bags that are good enough for weekend car trips. It is so tempting, though. What I really love are the compartments for everything.
