Default Does anyone prefer the MAB over the MAM?

I have owned two MABs in my RM buying career; Chocolate and Black Basketweave and only used the Chocolate once =/

Its a BIG bag no doubt. It is not open to interpretation; no one would argue that its not a big bag, which is different from a MAM, where some might proclaim it to be a tad too big or a tad too small. The MAM is overall the perfect size for me, but Im wondering if I ought to have at least one MAB in a staple color... just in case. What do you guys think? Would you buy the MAB or do you stick with the MAM?

12.5" x 6" x 8" with a 6" drop MAM

14" x 8.5" x 9" with a 6.5" drop MAB

^Dont let those measurements deceive you! They may seem just a tiny bit apart but in real life, those few inches make a world of difference and make a bag go from roomy to hella big!

Black Bag is a MAM
Blue Bag is a MAB

Nah... You definitely don't need a MAB in your collection... No point to it just sitting there looking purdy... Stick to MAM's... You will get more use out of it...

^^ I agree, I mean I think that every girl should own a MAB in a neutral color just in case (road trips, overnight stays, or just a day when you need to carry a little more than usual) but if you don't think you will ever use it then I would say no...HTH!!!

I have a bunch of mams and only one mab. I do like the extra .5 of handle drop, but overall the MAB bag is bigger than I want.

I'd prefer the black one; the size looks just right

I prefer MAMs, the MAB is just too big and boxy for me.
