I got a Sling Tote in October and generally like it, but I'm finding that it's too deep for me. I constantly get things lost in there. I like a messenger style bag, and I like that it can fit on the stroller handles, but I'd like something that is not as deep, so hopefully I'll be able to find things when I need them. Any suggestions? Thank you!

Fleurville has come out with a mini sling tote that is a smaller version of the ST. I haven't tried it out yet but may get one since I've heard that complaint from many others.

I like the Lesportsac Deluxe Messenger. Really lightweight, lots of organiziation. I had the Sling Tote and that was one of the reason I got rid of it, along with size. Too big for just my toddler, but not big enough for when I had just my infant. The really nice thing about the lesportsac is that it is really stuffable but doesn't seem really big when stuffed. The messenger is also long enough that it will over the handlebar on my twin valco runabout.

I was so excited about my Sling Tote, and have experienced some of the same things. It's too big (I'm a light packer) for my needs, despite the pockets, things get lost, and it is quite heavy.

I am in the market for a new bag, and currently am looking at Silver Line and the Lexie Barnes Darling (which is supposed to have new fabrics coming out this month sometime).
