I have used mine for 2 days and it really is a bag that molds to you. Even though I love cross-bodies, I find that most of the time the strap creeps it's way up my shoulder toward my neck and I am constantly adjusting it back down. Also, depending on what I have in there I am constantly swinging them behind me to distribute the weight. A.Pain.In.The.Butt. This bag though, this bag. The strap not once moved up my shoulder and I could carry it comfortably directly on my hip towards the front without any problems. The key holder is a dream. I just reach in there without taking the bag off to unlock the car and getting my wallet in and out is easy even though it is settled toward the bottom. I am also starting to get the "breaking in" marks on the flap and strap. Can't wait to see what this bag eventually [FONT=&quot]metamorphosis’ into.[/FONT]
Ahhh stop! You're making me want one! lol I totally understand what you mean about the strap and creeping toward the neck. I have that issue with thicker straps on bags a lot of times. I don't think this bag will be long enough for me crossbody. That's holding me back. How tall are you?
 
I am curious to know if Coach debuted the bag and made it available for a limited time to get a leg up on the competition. The saddle bag style is one of the trends for fall and everyone from Marc Jacobs to Celine is coming out with one. That way when they debut the bag wide for their Spring 2016 collection they would not seem like they are trying to jump on late to the bandwagon.
 
That's such a tease lol.....they could've put up a one week only message....for those who were thinking of purchasing.

I agree. It would have been nice if they would have kept the bag around longer. One of my friend's forgot to order the eggplant small size yesterday.

Annoying to say the least. Even some notice about limited availability or something. Snoopy was up longer than this, so I assumed it would be available through September. Geez, Coach.
 
They might have done it to get a jump on the competition's saddle bags, but I think it might just hurt them that they removed them so abruptly. If they would have stated that it was a limited run for only a week, then people who were on the fence could have made their mind up....and some would have bought one. But now, their choice is gone and some will not want to wait that long to buy so they will buy a saddle bag from another brand.
