it's made from recycled PET bottles.
so milo stains should have no issues being cleaned off.

but if you get the toffee brown one, it is made of canvas and thus will get dirty

hmm, then is it fireproof? sorry if i asked too much. because i would really hope to find a fashionable bag that is more durable than crumpler which is water and fireproof

u spill water or liquid on it no prob unless u get the toffee brown one that is made with canvas

as for fireproof
are you planning on spilling fire on it?
:s22:

*it's made from recycled bottles, plastic-ish ones, so I doubt they're fireproof.*

dun believe everything the SA tell u
coteetciel still quite decent amt of stock
just that not many places sell it and not many ppl know of them
so they just produce what they can

also u might wanna brush nail varnish (or use whatever other method u know of) on the straps to keep them from fraying
they're made from polyester-ish cotton or something so it tends to fray up quite a bit

iirc Cote Et Ciel rucksack is $290 while the messenger is $280 at Cumulus...actually there are other brands at Cumulus worth looking at like Nomadic...while you are there,take a look at the Cote Et Ciel vertical tote,i think its quite nice....

omg $290.............. Nomadic, cheaper than coteetciel? because i would love the type of rucksack/bag by Cote Et Ciel, that type of design to be specified.

And the brad Nomadic is not stated in cumulus' website.

hmm, i see so far only QWSTION and CoteEtCiel.

And let me ask a new question; I'm looking for a nice and fashionable backpack like CoteEtCiel's rucksack (simple & nice) Budget around $200.

went orchard window shopping today...

went to visit all possible stores that might be selling mens' bags along the whole orchard stretch. Was looking for vintage looking messenger bags. Saw a couple of coteelciel bags at the mandarin gallery. IMO, just a tier up from manhatten portege + price premium for uniqueness/abstract design of the bag lol.

Almost got the large canvas bag from fossil@ION for $159, but decided against it. Walked down the road and went into the Projectshop@paragon and I was sold. Awesome place for vintage bags :). One caught my eye but then blinded me with the pricetag. Tiny looking bag with a compartment for 13.3" laptops for $269 :(. Looks really nice though. Can't believe I'm still considering it at that premium.

anyone know if its possible to view the projectshop's catalogue online? the website i got on the namecard just redirects me to the cafe's mainpage.
