Anyone have Land's End diaper bags in teal blue?

Just wondering if the lighter color is a problem, as far as the bag getting dirty. Also, how do LE bags clean up? I'm looking at the Little Tripper, and I tend to be pretty hard on bags. This one would get a lot of use. Thanks for any input!

I don't have the teal blue, but I do have a little tripper. It is very easy to clean and doesn't seem to pick up dirt easily. You can just throw it in the wash if you need to as well.

Thanks! If it can be thrown in the wash, I doubt having a lighter color would be a problem. Do you like your LT?

I love the LT - in fact, just bought a second one (DH has one, and now I have one). It isn't a teeny tiny bag, there is plenty of room for a couple of diapers, wipes case, receving blanket (in place of changing pad), a couple of toys, some snacks, sippy cup, and my wallet and cell phone. With room left over! I love the zipper top and adjustable strap, and that the sippy cup is in a pocket on the outside (in case of leaks - nothing else gets wet) but not exposed to dirt, etc. I keep on looking for a comparable bag but haven't found one, particularly one in that price range. No, it isn't incredible cute, but it isn't an eyesore or anything!

Thanks, Lori! What kind of sippy cups do you carry in the LT bottle/cup pockets? We use soft spout Nubys and regular Gerbers, and I hope they would fit (as well as a water bottle for me in the other pocket). We do have one Gerber cup that is shaped like a nuclear plant cooling tower (best way I can describe it:-) - the one with a larger bottom and contoured middle), and I doubt that one would fit.

The lack of cuteness on the LT isn't a problem for me. We have a cute, smallish Vera Bradley diaper bag for church and dressy occasions, so I'm looking for a durable, functional bag that is classy, yet doesn't look overly babyish. I don't carry a purse 95% of the time, so the LT would hold my wallet and keys, and would double as a purse/bag for me, also. DH isn't crazy about toting the Vera, so I think he'll like a LT. We have a Target Eddie Bauer bag that we got as a gift and like OK, but it's kind of boxy. The LT will replace it. I'm hoping it will be a little more contoured and less squared-off than the EB. All pictures I've seen of the LT seem to indicate that.

And, you can wear the LT either messenger style or over the shoulder, right? If you have pictures of yourself or someone else wearing the LT, and wouldn't mind posting them or emailing them to me, that would be great!

Nuby sippy cups fit in the LT, and so do Playtex straw cups. That's all that I've really tried. I don't have a Gerber here that I can try for you.

I am able to wear the LT both messenger style and over the shoulder, but don't have any pics handy, sorry!

I have the LT in Teal Blue and have no problems cleaning it up. It's been my bag of choice lately because my baby is still small so I don't have to pack a lot of things yet. To me, it still looks brand new!

Thanks, Jeannie! I'm going with the teal blue one!
