egister the bag there's a sewn-in label with a number to return your bag to you in the event of losing it. I've set aside my Fossil bag for this one because it's so much better.

UPDATE 2, April 2015, (18 Months after the last update)

This is a very late update. Just wanted to say that the Hickory bag is black black black with a modest brown trim. I had to return that, too, because of the color. I finally bought another model of Tumi bag that is actually brown, and I like it.

MY original Black Tumi is, after more than two years, in perfect shape. It looks new. I still love these bags.

UPDATE AND WARNING September 2013 (4 months later):

I now waiting for my second Tumi Alpha Bravo Day Beale Mini Messenger Bag in a new color. The first still looks absolutely new despite my having carried it every day for 4 months. No other bag has ever done this. I'm thinking of donating my canvas Fossil bag to the Salvation Army. There's just no comparison. The Tumi bag has also changed my default preference about the size of messenger bags. I really don't need those briefcase-or-laptop-sized things and I'm happy to be rid of them. This smaller bag feels less cumbersome and a little more fashionable. Naturally, your needs and preferences may differ.

A warning, though: there are two very different bags using this same name. Some of the bags, like the black one I bought, are made of ballistic nylon. Others, like the color "Sahara", are made of polyester. I recently ordered the Sahara without noticing this. I really disliked the polyester, so I returned it right away. You may like the polyester versions, but I didn't feel confident that they would wear as well as the nylon bags. If you click the different colors here, the resultant descriptions indicate the material in each bag, so look at each to be sure you're getting what you want. I'd have been happy to have the Sahara in nylon.

I finally ordered the "Hickory" color at the Tumi website because it wasn't available here on Amazon. I got the same price as Amazon's and free shipping from Tumi, but I did have to pay sales tax there. Tumi also takes Paypal, so I bought there rather than another non-Amazon vendor.

包的质量很好。就算在运输过程中被航空公司损坏，也有一年保修期。而且五年内出现任何问题都有保障。如果您标记了这个包，那么有一个编号的缝合标签可以在您丢失的情况下将您的行李找回。我已经丢掉了我以前的包，因为这个好多了。

十八个月后追评，这是一个很晚的追评。只是想说，山核桃包是黑色带一点棕色。因为颜色的问题，我做了一次回头客。我终于买了另一个真正棕色的Tumi包，很喜欢。 

我原来的黑色Tumi已经使用差不多两年了。看起来很新我还是喜欢它。

4个月后再次追评

我现在正在期待我的第二个Tumi Alpha Bravo Day Beale迷你信使包，颜色和前一个不同。第一个仍然看起来是新的，尽管我每天都在用它，已经用了4个月。其他的包都没有用的这么久。我想把我的帆布化石袋捐给救世军。没有比较。 Tumi包也改变了我对包默认的尺寸的偏好。我真的不需要这些公文包或和笔记本电脑大小一样的东西，我很高兴摆脱他们。这个较小的包感觉不那么麻烦，有点更时尚。当然，每个人的需求和喜好可能会有所不同。

一个温馨提示，有两个非常不同的包使用的是同一个名字。有一些袋子，就像我买的黑色一样，都是用弹道尼龙制成的。其他的，像“撒哈拉”的颜色一样，是由聚酯制成。我最近买了撒哈拉，没有注意到这一点。我真的不喜欢聚酯，所以我马上退回去了。你可能喜欢聚酯版本，但是我并不觉得自己会穿上尼龙袋。如果您在选择不同的颜色，最终的描述将显示每个包中的材质，因此请查看每个包，以确保您获得想要的包。我一直很高兴撒哈拉的是尼龙材质的。

我终于在Tumi网站上订购了“Hickory”的色彩，因为它在亚马逊不可用。亚马逊的价格和Tumi的免费送货价格一样，但是我必须在那里支付销售税。 Tumi也可以使用贝宝，所以我买了那里，而不是另一个非亚马逊的供应商。

all day (8+ hours). It held a 16oz water bottle, snacks, phone, sunscreen, keys and a couple of small hand-towels with no issues. The magnets that hold the flap closed seem to be just about the right strength. It stays closed but can be opened with one hand easily. The only drawback was that I felt I had to keep an eye on this bag a little more in the crowds because it doesn't have a secure fastening mechanism.

pockets make it very handy and obviously made with the usual great Tumi quality.
