    I've been looking at the Hip-hurray bags for ages and still haven't brought one yet. Does anyone know if they stay on your shoulder or do they constantly slip off?
    Thanks for any info

    I've got one which I use as a beach bag or occasionally to take to the supermarket. It's fine for those purposes.

    It's not a bag I would put inside another "just in case" as IMHO it's too heavy when folded up.

    It certainly is not a substitute for a handbag. Just my view. I do like it and after my last holiday where it was traipsed around the beach and the pool every day, I washed it at 30 degrees and it came out like new.

    I have the old style Hip Hurray with the top draw strings attached to the bottom so you can wear it as a back pack.
    These are useful for putting over your shoulder - shame they stopped making this version :(
    Luckily I have a 'few' spare :o for just in case...

    I have 3 of the old style which I use regularly but I thought this new style would fit in my other Kipling bag ;) . But reading the reviews it may make my bag heavy I don't want a heavy bag :(

    My love of Kipling stems from the fact that they are light. I have got Radley bags but rarely use them as they seem to weigh me down. I have a friend who was a Radley queen but following my excellent example has become a Kipling convert:j

    I have one and it is fairly big, not like those ones that stuff inside a pouch, I don't think it's particularly heavy just bulky. I have one of the older style ones that zip into more of a rectangle, those are definitely heavier, the newer ones are slightly smaller and thinner fabric. I take it if I'm definitely shopping as it's nice a strong, rather than my envirosax shopper which is more of a you-never-know bag ��

    Well I'm slowly selling off any Kipling that I haven't used at all or have washed the life out of lol. Obviously selling them to make room for more :)

    I just got one of the these Kipling Fontel in Marine at my local TK Maxx for £23 in their clearance section. They had a few of them.

    It's very small but the strap is really long for wearing cross-wise and will be ideal for holding the essentials while I'm out walking to try to get fit.
