Cambridge Satchels

I love traditional school satchels and this one is really popular just now. But I wonder if it would be stiffer than I'd like.
Hey,

I've noticed a lot of satchel stores (I'm satchel obsessed) are starting to do a soft leather satchel now. One of my favourite stores Original Satchel Store has a whole soft leather collection. It does look more vintage, which is what I like, but if you don't like a stiff texture, then I'd advise going for a softer leather. They're a lot more relaxed and smooth :cloud9:

I am interested in the Poppy bag. Would love to hear your feedback!

Does the bag stand on its own? Is it stable most of the time?
Is the push lock hard to use, just like the satchels?
Does the bag soften up over time in original leather or saffiano leather?
Does the top handle make noise when wearing the shoulder strap? It seems to be loose.

Thanks! :cool:
