Default what does your bag weigh?
many of us factor in the weight of various bags in making decisions. this could serve as a reference. please add your bags. add categories and specify color and leather. i'll start.

cabat

medium nappa nero empty- 2 lbs
large vachette griggio empty- 4 lbs

Here is some info on the Ottone Cabat (which I would like to gently remind the bag gods i do not have yet)

Mini Size weighs: 1.5 lbs

Medium Size weighs: 2.5 lbs

like jburgh, i don't have a scale, but assume my medium copper is the same weight as the ottone medium cabat.
