Baby Case Diaper Bag By S. Stein Design

2009-03-04-stein1.jpg

We've never been a fan of the diaper bag that was so overtly a diaper bag. Part of the reason probably is because our diaper bag sometimes doubles as our purse when running errands, even sans babies! So we definitely sit up and take notice when a stylish, sturdy, functional bag that's appropriate for either mom or dad comes our way. We think the Baby Case diaper bag by S. Stein Design is one to consider.

The Baby Case is made of canvas, suede and leather. Designer and mom Sherry Stein calls it a "fresh take on industrial chic." The husband checked it out and agreed that it passes the daddy test. This is one we'd gladly use as a purse/tote for ourselves. Besides good looks and sturdiness, we're impressed with the waterproof interior that can be removed and washed!

I agree with Dee. This bag looks perfect, until I spotted the near $400 price tag! At that price of course you'll get the awesome-ist diaper bag.

That is a ridiculous price tag! Here's a great diaper bag, doesn't look like one, is guy friendly, and way more affordable. I just ordered one and can't wait to get it:

I'm getting the scout journeypack too! Love it! I've gotten so many compliments and I don't even have it yet.

At least the cute dress is affordable. You've gotta love Target. ;)

I'd consider it if it was half the price tag. Other than that, I love it!

The best dad friendly bag i've seen is the Skip Hop Via http://www.skiphop.com/product/21000.html

it's only $89 - less than all the other bags mentioned here.

Our best daddy friendly diaper bag is Timbuk2 Cargo Tote. It's not a diaper bag, but lots of pockets inside and out. Very durable, and comes in different colors and sizes. I prefer size med. ($75) for everyday use, and size large ($80) for an overnight trip. Very sporty look. If you browse around, you can easily find great deals too. I think Potterybarn used to sell them in special colors as a diaper bag.

If you prefer light weight bag, I would recommend LesportSac in dark solid colors. It's very popular among Japanese moms. http://www.lesportsac.com/

It's a very nice bag, and I appreciate the idea of craftsmanship and a living wage for the craftsman.
But since I'm not even paying that much for the crib, I think I'll pass.
