This bag is totally hip-to-be-square. All of the nerdy conservative details of the Shelby add up into something that's really fabulous, and totally not the sum of its parts. 

The tan is the faded reddish brown of wallpaper and side-paneled station wagons. They're calling this color nutmeg, which I think is just fine. The geometry of the squarish shape is set off by the flashy hardware. The side straps serve no discernible purpose, but they look really good.

At 18" x 13" x 6", this bag is a great size to lug just about everything around with you. I think I you might be able to squeeze a small laptop into it, and it would be a really extraordinary briefcase with the luggage-styled seams and tag.

With only a 5" handle drop, the Shelby is going to be hard to fit over your shoulder, and, at this size, it really should come with a detachable strap. Also, the Shelby runs $2,365 retail, which is a little out of league for a lot of people right now. 

Overall, I really love this bag, but the impracticality of the handles and the price tag are definitely repellents.
