    An Aubergine/Dusk MCB is on its way to me now. :) I'm thinking to use it with my Aubergine Pop-Tote for a two-day trip next weekend, subway -> train -> rental car -> hotel and back again. I won't need a lot so the two should be enough. And, I'll get to look at the pretty Dusk color in person.

    I also ordered the TLSS in Fjord. I'd been trying to hold out for Acuity but don't see it live anywhere on the website.

    Next up on my "I will order it as soon as I see it available" list is a Truckasana, preferably in Seapine (Verde, Deep Blue or Aubergine would also fit my color preferences) with something cheerful and fun on the inside. Moab, Moss, Dusk or Ultraviolet maybe? There are only a few colorways in stock right now though, and it's been months since I've seen more in production. I'm wondering if I missed the window of opportunity.

    I'd planned to buy some more carabiners with this order but didn't see any colorful ones available. Friends are looking longingly at mine so it's time to gift them with their own - after they are back in stock.

    I'm looking forward to receiving my new MCB!
    Oh, that's cool! If it works out and you have time, please post some pics from the trip.

    I can't remember if the TLSS was made in Acuity, but I'm pretty sure they've been out of Acuity for several months now.
    Hopefully you'll like Fjord if you don't have any already; I quite like it.

    I don't know how popular the Truckasana is and it does have that grippy stuff which may be a unique material... Which to me makes it a candidate for discontinuation or low priority for restock (no insider knowledge here, just years of watching). I've had the Ursa/UV on my list for a long time... Not that I need another Tote Like Object, but I think that's a cool colour combo.
    The whole of life is just like watching a film. Only it’s as though you always get in ten minutes after the big picture has started, and no-one will tell you the plot, so you have to work it out all yourself from the clues.​

      The TLSS was never made in Acuity. I'd have jumped on it otherwise. I have a Fjord one too which is my second favourite halcyon colour.

      Acuity is currently retired according to this instagram post

        This will be my first Fjord. I've been eyeing it for while though.

        I've suspected it might be low priority for awhile. I just haven't seen a colorway I really liked, and I know that when I buy something I don't like the look of it will not get much use, so is a waste of $ and space. I've seen a few colorways I would have liked but for various reasons missed those opportunities. Sigh. I shall continue to shlep my yoga mat, blocks, etc. in ways that feel more clumsy and uncomfortable. I can see Truckasana being great for picnics too, though I already have picnic-friendly bags.

        Ursa/UV does sound like a great combo! Not to my taste to use every day, but I can appreciate it.

          Thank you for the insights! I'm glad I jumped on the Acuity TTs when I did - I use them every day, and love the color.
