^^ ITA, the giant hardware was too heavy for me on the city, work & brief styles...but i think the hobo, the day & the besace styles are all super-lightweight...and even though i'm an RH girl at heart, i love the SGH & GGH on certain styles & colors
I definitely notice it more on the City & Part Time than I do on the Work or the Day bag.
The GH is just not for me I abandoned all other brands for Balenciaga because of the lightness of their bags. I walk everywhere and carry my life with me, so the bag must be light.
Have to admit that I like the way it looks on some styles - but more as a design object than a functional bag.
