Default Rolled Patent Leather Handle Owners--Comfy?
Ladies, I need your opinions please. I may re-do the handles on my mini Sofia from flat patent to rolled patent handles. Are the rolled patent handles comfortable? I know that the handles on my Ormala are, but I was curious about the patent. . . Are they stiffer?

Thanks in advance!!

I'll let you know in a month .

I have another bag with rolled patent handles, and it's VERY comfy. But can't speak to my Ormala yet.

Watching with interest.

I have rolled handles on my patent Sofia.
Very comfy, I am glad I asked for the modification.

Baghag - is your bag already made or in production? I wanted to change the handles on my Sofia and Ignacio said that the handles are put on first so that it would mean making an entire new bag. He actually offered to make me a new bag!

Just a heads up!

Oh cr--! Are you kidding?! I would think that a handle change would be no problem. I don't want him to have to make a new bag!! If it's not easy to do after production, then I'll keep the flat straps. It's not that the straps are uncomfortable, it's just that the patent is scratchy on the ends.

Thanks for the info Sandy!

I thought that the handle change would be easy too! I had wanted to change the Sofia handles to the Cecilia handles. It just gave me the extra incentive to order another one!
