I'm new here, so I don't really know how this whole thing works.
If there's a topic about this already then please close this mod.

In Australia the countryroad bag is really ''in'' I see them everywhere.
My question is, is it worth it? What's the best colour?

It's $60 by the way.

Pictures.






Pretty?

recently, there was just a topic on country road bags, did you look back a couple of pages?
if you're from australia you can buy them at country road (duhhh) or myer or david jones
i love my country road bag, fits everything! i think its definitely worth the $60

Oh, no I didn't look back. My bad.
This can be closed then.

omg in melbourne everyone has country road bags. All the asian kids decided to buy one and then all the white kids decided to get them too so now its like the unofficial school bag

lol so does sydney almost everyone has one...

its kinda getting out of fashion now

^ Lolol I agree. I see alot of people with countryroad bags to school. Its becoming more common and common.. I have one too, they're the best!

haha everbody has a country road bag.
It's so funny how sportsgirl, cotton and mooks have like rips of it.
I like mooks (just in general but thats off topic).

It's okay but very very common.

Yeap...Same up in Brisbane.

those are really cute.!

Yup, Mooks is awesome. I got a $90 Mooks bag that isn't the cylinder style bag like the Country road bags, but bigger and oval/rectangular shaped.
Didn't really wanna get a country road bag cos yes, EVERYONE has them. At first I thought they were nice but I didn't wanna go with the flow so I got my Mooks bag.
Mooks <333



But uhh yeah, like twinkle_l0ve said, you can get Country Road bags in David Jones, Myer or Country Road (the official store should have more colours).

oh. how i wish they distribute here in Japan, i like sporty bags, that's why..

i think the whole of australia is being taken over by this country road bag.

im from adelaide,
and omgosh, it is filled with these country road bags.
O_O" haha they're like.. overrated! lol

u can get them from myers, dj, and of corse country road haha

country road bags are extremely overrated in my opinion.
i guess i dont really follow the crowd in these kind of things lol
but if you really want one i think $60 is reasonable.

its jsut you see the exact same bags on everyone... no matter what style/color it is. i see at least 5 of the same every day =.="

I'm from Washington state, Seattle area... I've *never* seen nor heard of Country Road-- is it only in Australia? (I think so...) No one in my area has those bags... then again, I'm away at law school in a country-ish/not big city setting.

I really like that first bag (the gray one).

[ETA] Just went to their online site. They have some cute stuff! I like the men's bags and hats... and the women's bags are pretty nice too. Hmm... now I *really* want one.

^ me neither in NY
NorthFace is pretty big in NYC,
but i never seen or heard of countryroad bag... till now xD

defs too overplayedd i think , every single person has one literally

It's nice and all, but too much people have it now.
I agree with the person who said it's an 'unofficial school bag' LOL.

my opinion: NOT WORTH IT. as people have said.. 'everyone has one' and i think it looks a bit like a sleeping bag... with 60$ i would buy a better quality and better material bag... but if you like it.. then go ahead

yeah... so it seems to be an australia thing b/c everyone doesn't have it in the states. i want one!

I've never seen it (from London) but it looks alright, i like the shape and all. Might check it out.

Nice. Never seen one in cali. I like the first one. 2nd one seems like flannel pjs made into a bag. a bit plain, nice, but not worth $60 though. cause the material looks flimsy, $40, sure. $50, maybe. $60, not really.

overrateddd.
i have a navy one though but haven't used it this year because EVERYONE has one

material is far from flimsy..
its like good quality material...
i love my country road bag! its the best investment i made!
i am after another =) its so nice!!
but sydneys filled with them... you cant walk down the road without seeing at least 5 ppl with the bag

http://www.soompi.com/forums/index.php?sho...p;#entry7241271

everyone has one.
so im not getting one.
although it does look nice..

^^

ANOTHER thread of this.

EVERY1 HAS COUNTRY ROAD BAGS... the white ones are nice and they stand out alot.. but easily to get dirty..~~

Am i the only one that think they're ugly >____o'

Too many people have them now.
But bag is good, lasted me for around 1 year now. Time to get a new bag =o.

dude..i have the demim one! and im soo over it (i nearly bought a second one!)...so many ppl have one and I dont even no why i got one!
and yep...its the unofficial school bag of australia!

if ur in aus...u can get them in myers or david jones in the country rd section
or just go to the country rd stores

The white one with silver font is the hottest white one .. but i find that i have too many school books -___- It really strains your shoulders, but looks-wise i don't mind them except some colours are kind of fugly.

----rainie*

they're way too common now

used to want one once upon a time but nah not really now. i reckon it looks good on some people but not so good on others, depends who wears it but some ppl make it look really sloppy(?) because they carry for the sake of carrying when it has nothing in it. bought sugarism bag instead great stuff

xD so many stores are making similar bags now ...
cotton on ..etc
even giordano is making them o__o
but they are a great size, if fits everything in
but yeah a big hit in australia..
haha..unofficial school bag.. very true
off topic.. any one else notice the lonsdale bags become more popular as well ?

i got one to, but too embaress to go out with it bcoz when you go out with a bunch of asians= whole set of country road bag.

oooh! i'm loving the bags! XD

what does the lonsdale bag look like
:\

I just got my lonsdale bag. I haven't really seen it around much in melbourne since theres like only one store and its like in southland lol. But I have seen heaps of muzzas with it so probably gonna become next country road. hahah good thing I'm not gonna be in highschool next year

I have a Country Road bag, mines black - the tag calls it navy though its not really navy
I live in Melbourne, yea basically everyone has them. So many try hard 13 year old asians have country road bags and it just looks so out of place on them.
They are very sturdy. I have mine for years and its never broken or anything. I'd say its quite worth $60 if you get a lot of use out of it.

GO LONSDALE.

Way too many people have country road bags. Lonsdale bags are sexier. I got mine two years ago for half price and I only really started using it recently. Way nicer than Country Road.

In regards to what some ppl are saying here...

I believe that's dumb (for a lack of a better word) to not buy it b/c everyone has one, and it's equally dumb to just buy it b/c everyone has it too.

Buy it b/c YOU like it.

In a sense I can understand some ppl what their 'own identity', 'uniqueness' or w.e...but I don't think it should stop those who secretly like it from buyin' just b/c they believe it's overrated.

but yeah, I think some ppl have answered your question. So I won't bother..and can't anyway since i'm from Canada

^ Well, the thing is, once everyone has it, usually it either loses all appeal or just becomes more appealling depending on who you are. The fact everyone has it becomes a justification for why I would never get one that's all.


^ Oh that's hot! How'd you manage to get it 50% off?

Yeah, I thought Country Road bags were really nice like...3 years ago. Then everyone suddenly got them last year and it became bleaugh. I'm love the Lonsdale bags, but I just know that they, along with Le coq sportif are going to be the next Country Road bags so I'm not sure if it's worth it to get a bag everyone's going to be sporting in half a years time

LOL TB much? well in melbourne it is...

Friend that works at Lonsdale = Awesome. The white lonsdale bags are the nicest.

^ Oooh lucky! Which Lonsdale store does she work at? The Parramatta one? I want a friend to work at a Lonsdale store Yeah I saw a white one and I fell in love with it, plus the guy I like has one

With the Country Road bags... Which colours are there? Just out of curiousity, I saw a few in the other thread, but I'm almost positive there are more.

I like it. But How big are they?
They look like duffel bags for travel, which I need! XD

They're pretty big. Around duffel bag size, possibly a bit smaller. But they look better with not a lot in them.

^ yeah, the more floppier they are, the better
but c'mon guys, just because everyone has them, dont hate the bag

I have a country road bag too. >_>
Sorta embarrassing but size-wise its a good bag, especially when your carrying around books, food..anything really!
I find it a very 'convenient' bag too. Its quite ideal for traveling/or as a overnight bag too! ^^ I wouldn't carry my CR bag around town...more of a bag for school, not leisure. Just take a normal handbag out with me! ^^; But often when I'm in town I'll maybe 4-5 13 y/o girls in a group..all with CR bags. >_> Does look quite out of place on them a bit. =/
