Ding Ding! That Acorn Musette is just what I was looking for! Got one 
ordered and on the way. I agree with Toshi, I was shocked to see that an 
Acorn product was actually in stock.

This group is moderated. There will be times that this is referred to as 
"censorship", although that's a negative word I don't think applies here. I 
can't say anything I want on this list because it's not my list and someone 
moderates for content.

I like the Riv flatsack 
, though I wish 
it were just a bit taller to fit a standard magazine. Currently sold out.
I saw Herse is selling one 
-  
lightweight and packable, as you would expect.

[RBW] Re: Musette Recommendations

[Ben Miller]

Michael,

I have a Strawfoot waxed-canvas musette that I really like. Handmade in 
Santa Cruz, CA.

Still plain and functional, but the waxed canvas does provide a fair deal 
of structure. I don't know what the original Riv musette looks like, but 
the Strawfoot was a nice, straightforward clasp to hold the cross strap in 
place that just works. And it doesn't have a zipper like the new Riv one, 
but just a snap that feels really solid. It's been durable for me, had it 
for ~10 years.

Ben
