Thanks!My Riva is currently stored on the attic. As soon as I have time, I measure
... and mine is in the Bal closet which is currently blocked given that we are doing Spring cleaning in the house right now (and yeah, I know, it's summer)!!! I will measure as soon as I can ..My Riva is currently stored on the attic. As soon as I have time, I measure
Can either of your recall whether you think a shortie could wear the longer strap on the shoulder without it hanging to my knees?My Riva is currently stored on the attic. As soon as I have time, I measure
Here you go:
- Measurements: Shoulder Strap Drop 12”, Handle Drop 5”, Height 12”, Width 14”, Depth 9.5”
While I LOVE the Riva, I also (at one time) had the Riva City and I have to say that I actually prefer the City over the Velo, but .. strangely enough, it seems that they made more Velo's than City's! Good luck @muchstuff !!!Perfect, thank you! Now I just have to find one...
Thanks, I don’t recall ever seeing a City for sale, you do see the odd Velo. I have a classic Velo and love it so should be good if I can find the Riva!
I've definitely seen more Velos than Cities since I first discovered the Riva bags. A few pop up on the Japanese market, and then linda*s***stuff has also had a few sell in the last 6 months
I’m watching one right now but it’s a bit more expensive than I’d like. Tough to tell from the pics.I've definitely seen more Velos than Cities since I first discovered the Riva bags. A few pop up on the Japanese market, and then linda*s***stuff has also had a few sell in the last 6 months
I've seen this one, but too 'spensive in my books, and condition could be better. What colour are you looking for, I'll be sure to let you know if I see any

Thanks, black is what I’m looking for. They just bumped that one up by $44 when they reposted. Rated as a six and the sixes I’ve gotten from them have been in great shape. Their photos suck so you can’t tell for sure...I've seen this one, but too 'spensive in my books, and condition could be better.

Lolz, their prices go up & down like a yoyo
Deciding when to buy is like selling shares.....then you also have to make sure no one else gets in first. And their pics are terrible, you would think with the high volume that they list & sell that they would make a better effort with their pics
