ceedoan -- I wish you luck traveling with your Rocco! I hope you have one "tough" Rocco!
Quick update with my drama: AW "corporate" said NO return!


WHAT?!?!??!?!! that makes NO SENSE!!! why wouldn't they give you a return! so sorry you went through all this drama!! so far so good with my Rocco.... i'm being very careful with him - like trying not carry him for a long time on my shoulder (for fear of the strap breaking) or carrying him too close to my body (fear of rubbing against leather and wearing it down).

I find the handles fine on the forearm. The handles aren't as grating as say, an LV Speedy... but the bag is heavier.

Agree with you on that...one reason I let my speedies go was the discomfort from the unyielding handles.
The Rocco is heavy! But the handles are quite comfortable on the arms, as long as u dont load it too much, and then there is the shoulder strap to switch it up when the weight becomes uncomfortable. :)

Ive mostly carried my Rocco by the strap and so far no signs of wear. :)
( the rubbing cant be helped this way though )
 
I just picked up my Rocco for first time in a couple of months as ive been on holiday and was using my lighter weight handbags (Chanel flaps and longchamp le pilage)... Omg i could not believe the weight of Rocco in comparison... Don't get me wrong, I still love it to death and will be using it from tomorrow :-)

I just checked and it´s the weirdest thing: ShopBop says it´s lambskin but on Barneys` online store it says "Neoprene Rocco Duffel".
I´m baffled... Are there two bags that look the same, cost the same but one is leather and the other one plastic? :thinkin:
The smooth one is neoprene. The pebbled one is lambskin. Neoprene is suppose to be lighter...by how much, I don't know. But it is authentic. :D
 
Just bought a rocco in granite with the old style light gold shiny cupcake studs!!!! I was looking for one for SO long!!! YAY!!!

I just received my AW rose gold Rocco & the leather is very stiff and the sides of the bag are very smooth and not pebbly at all.. is this normal?!

Stiff ? Hmm maybe its just because its brand new.. As far as it not being pebbly at the sides mine has patches where its not.. With wear though it tends to get like that .if that is something you are really unhappy with you could just return it and go to the store and get one that's pebbly all throughout...what store did you order/get it from? ..can you upload some pictures?

Maybe AW changed their leather, just guessing about this (lol) because I have read a few comments lately about stiffer leather. Maybe some one with more knowledge than I can help you, I only have a baby rocco but am waiting on a mini like yours to be delivered.
