So I just looked, bought mine in 2017, it was $350. Was worth that. Not sure I’d pay the 8-900 they are showing for some of their bags. My only concern about the Vessel would be how the vinyl ages on a backpack that gets bumped and beaten up. I have a couple of their golf bags and a tennis backpack, and the Tumi leather is easier to address the rash from being shoved under airplane seats and run over by wheeled chairs.
