This Kipling Alvar bag is available for half price, £27.50, but only in the Tangarine - other colours available but the price inceases.
Not sure if you can still sign up for the fashion emails and get a further 20% off making it only £22 - you can only sign up once and get sent a code.
Not too sure of the colour yet myself, not so much tangarine as actually bright orange, but its great value for a medium sized bag with four big pockets and an internal pocket - plus phone and pen slots.
12 inches wide by 10 high.
Also in the blue Summer Stripe for £32.50, though the prints I have seen tended to be a bit stiffer material than the plain ones.

Not had a Fairfax and couldn't stretch to that but with the 20% off having a bag for just over £20 seemed a good buy - though orange wouldn't be my first choice - but you have to pick up the Kipling bargains when you can!Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us every day. -- Sally Koch0

I have a Reth which is great but not had a Fairfax - be careful as there are one or two different sizes - it has more pockets but I beleieve the Reth would be larger in the main pocket.
These are showing on Youtube:

Just checked on Javari and the Alvar's are the same price but with less colour choices.
Javari is free postage and returns though (as is Amazon on many) if you ever wanted to check a bag out for size etc.Great opportunities to help others seldom come, but small ones surround us every day. -- Sally Koch0 -

thanks for that, i did notice sizes on amazon were different with different sellers. i have gone for the black fairfax going by size it's roughly the same as the reth but i wanted a slightly smaller one anyway so will have to wait and see,like you said it's free delivery so can always send back
