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. :smile1: Now back to whatever I was meant to be doing...

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

The suede one is the one I wanted. That one sold fast!

It did sell out fast, and it's beautiful. And I may have found a solution for the weight. I put the two shoulder straps together to use it crossbody and while it was a lot lighter, I didn't like the feel of the two metal clasps on my shoulder, so I'm going to use a different crossbody strap.

It was a relief when I returned the oxblood Rogue and the Outlaw.

It is, right? I don't have to think about it anymore...it's done...and my credit card will have $600 I can spend! :roflmfao:

Of course, as I am completing the return the SA thoughtfully reminded me that the Mother's day sale kicks off in less than 2 weeks.:graucho:

I saw the Outlaw in the store today for the first time. Love at first sight! Is there a specific reason you returned? I love to hear feedback before a purchase. Thanks!!

It was hard for me to return. I had returned it once and repurchased during PCE only to return it again. I decided to pack it with my items and see how I liked it because I'd spent so much on PCE I wanted to start narrowing down to the purses I absolutely loved. I found it to be heavy, about as heavy as the Rogue. I loved the crossbody strap and thought I'd be okay with carrying it crossbody or over the shoulder, but it looked odd with my items in it, stuck out too much, and I don't carry that much.

Also, for me, the turnlock pockets weren't that useful because I have a large Samsung Note 4 that wouldn't fit comfortably, and I also have the glovetanned key case by Coach that didn't fit. That said, the inside fits a lot and there's a nice spot for my phone. But I couldn't figure out how to use those pockets other than for receipts. Bottom line, I loved the way it looked, but it wasn't functional for me. The final straw was when I took it out of the dust bag to just stare at it again to make a final decision and the leather was doing something strange..it was fuzzy in spots, not sure what you call it or how to describe it but it was lifting up in three or four small spots and I felt with time it would look terrible.

I do still like the purse because it's certainly unique and may still purchase the glovetanned pebble leather version when it's released.

That was my experience but Alexa5 loves hers.

This is a great review, thanks! I'm considering getting one for mother's day, so it's good to read your perspective. What color did you have?

Chalk looks so pretty in pictures. Unfortunately, none of the Coach stores near me have the Outlaw in store.

It is a beautiful color and looks great on that bag. I'm not sure what the leather was doing and it may not have been a serious issue. I know when I purchased it the rep said with that type of leather you only need to clean it with a clean cloth and water because it's polished grain leather. Since I'd already decided to return it, I didn't bother to wipe it off to see if the leather was damaged or just needed to be cleaned. These were very tiny spots. I hadn't used the bag other than to put my things in it to see how they fit, so I didn't think it needed to be cleaned. I kept it in the dust bag and it came in factory wrapped condition.
