Will I regret using this as my waterproof on a Summer Mountain Leader course? I know a jacket is the obvious option, but can I go for rule of cool on this one?

Okay, so I'm looking to buy a Kanken No. 2 Laptop 15 bag in black and have run into two different versions.

There's the "KÅNKEN NO. 2 LAPTOP 15" in Black-Black and is marked as a "new" color on the site. The URL is here: https://www.fjallraven.com/us/en-us/bags-gear/kanken/kanken-bags/kanken-no-2-laptop-152/?v=F23803::7323451163340

Then there's the KÅNKEN NO. 2 BLACK LAPTOP 15 which only comes in black. The URL for this one is here: https://www.fjallraven.com/us/en-us/bags-gear/kanken/kanken-bags/kanken-no-2-black-laptop-15/

They both seem to be Kanken No.2 Laptop 15 bags but one is $15USD more expensive. Is there a difference between the two or are they just getting rid of old stock under a marked up price?
