I personally love the look of the rogue satchel when carried by the handles, but I don't like it so much with the shoulder strap. It is just a funny shape for my body type, too large and heavy too. It is so sad because I LOVE the way they look. I had a butterscotch one for a hot minute but returned it.
 
Most often when you can't add to your cart, it is because it is out of stock. When items say "almost gone" I can never add them to my cart.
I think 'almost gone' is when all of the stock is in other peoples carts. That is why if you keep hitting on the 'add' button and somebody's cart times out, you can get their item. Every time I have ever done that I usually get the item in my cart...... eventually. But there has been a time or two where it sells out and the 'add' button grays out before I'm able to get the item in my cart.

For anyone considering the Large City Zip tote (F11926), I just wanted to add a few pics since the site only has one pic.

The tote has an exterior slip pocket (love this!) and also some great pockets inside. On the back wall is a zip pockets that goes the full length of the tote and is probably for a laptop. A sign next to the tote said it fit a 15" laptop. On the front wall is another smaller zip pocket that has some depth to it because of gussets.

Thank you for the pictures! I am thinking about this bag. Do you think it would fit a small lunch bag, make up bag, extra shoes and a water bottle ir umbrella?

I think so! As long as the shoes weren't too big or bulky, I think all of that would fit. The length dimension on the site is 14" which is across the bottom. Across the top it is 19".

I discovered the inside zip pockets that go the full length of the tote are actually on the back and front wall! Plus the two slip pockets and smaller gusseted zip pocket too. The exterior slip pocket is nice for a phone, but when put in vertically my iPhone 7 sticks out about 1". It's definitely secure in there and won't fall out, but not sure an iPhone 7+ would fit.

Hope that helps! [emoji4]

Thank you so much. It does help. I want to present a more polished and professional look at work so that bag would be great. Thank you for taking the time to reply!

It looks like a normal satchel shapeView attachment 3783564 . I've attached a pic of my black one. Can't wait to get oxblood.
I love this bag, and adore black bags so was extremely tempted to get this one at the sale! Unfortunately Over $550 for a bag (with tax) is just a mental block for me... I think $400 or so is my limit, haha. I just know I wouldn't carry it & would just worry about it getting messed up or something, haha. ugh, decisions!!

Not sure if you do a lot of walking with your bags on your work commute, but be careful not to load this bag up too much... I found that the skinny & firm straps would cut into my shoulder if the bag was too heavy. I have a long-ish walk, though, so it just depends on how far you're going!
I told the outlet manager this when I was there last, in case his feedback makes it to corporate design people, lol. Even slightly thicker straps would help!!

Good luck with whatever you pick!!

I hear you on limits! My limits are the same as yours and I need to get back to them because they do tend to creep up little by little.........:lol:. I got my Rogue at the outlet and I was on the fence until they told me that if you spend over $500, you get an extra 10% off. That sealed the deal for me. Plus, I had some gift cards from my wedding anniversary party that helped me justify my limit creep but I'm getting back on the saddle now........:drinks:

To me, this is where Coach fails consistently. Strap thickness and/or placement has ruined otherwise great designs

I agree. They had the Kristin with the most perfect, most comfortable soft thick shoulder strap, and just before they killed the line, they redesigned it with a skinny hard strap. If they were listening to SAs and customers, they would have known that the thick strap was the reason people were buying it. I know because I asked my SA what was the attraction of Kristins and that is what she told me.

It really doesn't suit me I sent mine back too
 
It's not a dumb question @kells1983. I am wondering the exact same thing. I have had a generous Coach gift card in my wallet since March and I just splurged it and ordered the Rogue 36 satchel in oxblood....

Well, my Rogue 36 satchel in oxblood from the FOS came today and it is a gorgeous bag, but I don't like the square bulky satchel style. I was trying to do something different but I think this is just a little too different for me. It's going back.

Thank you for the pictures of the inside! I've been considering this bag for a work tote, but I don't have a store in my location and have to rely on the website pictures. Then again, not having a store in my location might be a good thing... ;)

You're welcome! My friend was interested in it as a laptop bag so I told her I'd check it out in person since I have an outlet about 20 min away. Was pleasantly surprised about the features it had, since it looked like a basic tote in the pic. She's been using it for a week and loves it!

Oh no.... oh well, we'll see what happens when it arrives! I found the normal Rogue almost too square and briefcase-ish for me for casual wear... which is mostly when I would carry it because I use a backpack for my laptop on my way to work. If I need another bag I just carry a Longchamp tote or something lightweight. Maybe a Rogue is just not for me, but I'm excited to try it out at home, away from prying SA eyes ;)...

Did you get the large rogue satchel in oxblood yet? What do you think of it? I got mine yesterday and it is very beautiful, but I do no like the large, square shape on me, and the strap is adjustable but still long. For $400 I really have to love a bag, so I will be returning my first rogue. :sad:
