That strap is so amazing! What a great idea!
I was a little worried about the weight too when I started carrying mine. I changed out my double zip accordion wallet for the 1941 clutch, which is very lightweight but still roomy. I also got a lighter sunglass case and took a few other non essentials out that I for some reason had been carrying. I'm pretty happy with it even though it is on the heavy side. I found that carrying it by the handles is easier for me most times. It seems that opinions vary widely on this, so you have to decide if it's right for you.
The heft is not a problem for me. Stays on the shoulder nicely and I wouldn't trade her for anything!
Another vote for "That looks awesome!"
The wide cross-body strap must really help to distribute the weight, too.
I think the manageability of the weight depends very much on what else one will be juggling along with it (as well as the height of one's heels).
I'm reading this and I'm thinking the same thing. I can feel the weight when I use the handles but it's not heavy at all to me with the shoulder straps. I'm really sorry that some are having to return them because of the weight....
I returned an oxblood Rogue because of the weight. I love the way the bag looks and all the details and would have kept the oxblood along with my suede Rogue, but I started carrying my suede just to see if I liked it enough to keep both, but it was way too heavy.
If I hadn't cut the tags on my suede one, I would have returned it. I wish I were one of those who didn't notice the weight because I want to carry it more. The last couple of times I carried it, I left it in the car and only took my key case into the store because I found it burdensome to carry with me.
I carry the bare minimum as it is so I'll have to figure something out because I really don't want to leave that bag sitting around...it's too pretty for that, but I don't want to develop back issues either. http://www.oprah.com/style/Is-Your-Handbag-Killing-You
It's amazing how even with the bare minimum this bag is still heavy. That article really is startling. It looks so darn beautiful on all of you. I hope I can get out the door with it one if these days.
Absolutely beautiful bag and color. I guess we will all be scaling down to what we carry.

Thank you
yes, the wide strap helps a ton.
If totally uninformed opinions count, then yes, it looks identical to me. The forum has gone quiet and I am on a tea break.
I love the color (in either picture, but I prefer the top one), and it's a gorgeous bag, but I couldn't carry a Rogue that large unless it was completely empty (or maybe filled with helium balloons)! Are you going to get one?If totally uninformed opinions count, then yes, it looks identical to me. The forum has gone quiet and I am on a tea break.
I love it. This was the first one I liked when just the first pictures were coming out. I have the regular size one now and I love it and the weight doesn't bother me. But...this is bigger and will be heavier and I need another bag like a hole in the head and.......lol.....I don't know! Thanks for responding. I thought they looked the same but I've looked so many times I was getting dizzy! 😂😈😈
I can see why you're obsessed. Perhaps you need another Rogue to reduce wear and tear on the first one, or maybe you should save some money for the Fall bags? I was struck by those studded, triple French purse bags from the Fall pictures, and may be in trouble when those come out.
Now back to whatever I was meant to be doing...
