> The construction (waxed canvas) and detailing (leather straps) also strike me as incredibly trendy. This kind of bag has become quite popular in the last few years, but will likely not stay popular for a decade.

Is that a thing that matters to you ?

I looked at it and thought "man, that's a nice looking bag". I did not think "I bet my peers would think that's a nice looking bag".

If I'm spending hundreds of dollars on a fashion piece, then yes, I obviously care what other people will think about it. On the other hand, if I'm buying something timeless, it will never be out of fashion.

It's not like a fanny pack.

Messenger bags have been around since the days of the Pony Express. They're not going anywhere anytime soon.
