Anyone have the midnight navy Bandit and another bandit that has either oxblood or burgundy sides on the pouch? Navy is the only color I don't have of the Bandit and it is such a great bag but the marine sides of the navy don't excite me. I'm wondering if I mix it with a pouch that has oxblood or burgundy (from washed red) if that would look good? If you do have both, can you please post a photo of it and maybe a close up of the two colors next to each other? TIA! I know everyone is super busy!

Bandit just hit FOS this morning...black and oxblood in the 39, and black in the smaller version, for like 70% off retail. I just grabbed an oxblood 39. GO!!! :smile:

I have no bandits but just grabbed the oxblood from the FOS - I tried the bandit on in the store and the leather is really to die for - the leather is important to me and I really think this is a quality bag even retail price - but 70% I could not resist!

I am so sorry to ask this here but what is SAS please? I just bought both the 39 and the regular Bandit on the outlet sale. I couldn't make up my mind which size I needed so I bought both before they sold out. Both in black.

My Oxblood 39 arrived today from FOS and I’m very pleased with it. The leather is buttery and the bag seems perfect!

Congrats! I'm a fan of the Bandit. The leather feels great and the quality is amazing. Enjoy.

Nice! Both of mine (black) should be here tomorrow. Does anyone have a preference on the large or the smaller one? I don't carry a ton of stuff so the large one might be too big.

I have the Violet in the small and two tea rose Bandits in the larger size. I prefer the larger size because it fits on my shoulder better.

Lovely!

I would think that inner pouch helps keep the shape so it doesn't fold in on itself, especially if you don't have the bag full of your stuff?

I don't carry much stuff either. I have 3 rogues 25 and not a single regular one. In summer I carry small crossbody bags.

I received my regular size black bandit (the smaller one) from the last online outlet sale and it's a perfect size for me. I also don't like heavy bags. I walk a lot and my shoulder starts hurting after a while from heavy bags.

I weighed my empty small bandit and it's 2.2lbs which is still a bit heavy for me. Without the pouch it's 1.6lbs. It's interesting that the pouch from the smaller bandit weighs the same as Soho crossbody -0.6lbs. I am thinking of finding a light bag insert or using one of my fabric cosmetic bags instead of the pouch to keep the bag light. I would've preferred if Coach made Bandit with an attached canvas middle section sort of like rogues have.

My two Bandits came today and as I thought, the large one is just too big. Gladly though the smaller one is a perfect size and not too small. Ugh at having to pay to send the big one back.
