I just received my Kooba ADA woven leather tote from Active Endeavours and I am in SO love with it!!
It's so unique and it really makes a statement! Perhaps it's the 15 year old punk rock girl in me who likes the toughness of this bag.
You either love it or you hate it - and I'm definitely in the former category!
However, one thing that suprised me is how HEAVY this bag is. Has anyone noticed this? or is this normal for Kooba? The Sienna is a little heavy, but not like the ADA! Jeez! It's like carrying a bag of rocks! (There was a comment about this purse looking like Joan of Arc which is more fitting than you could imagine!)
I haven't even weighed it down with all my junk yet and I'm seriously concerned that I won't be able to carry it around all day. (I get very bad shoulder pain after holding a purse on my shoulder for a few hours. It starts out fine, but sometimes - whew!) I have another very heavy purse that I carry sometimes, and I'll beg my boyfriend to carry it when it gets to heavy. He'll take it on occasion if I'm really in rough shape - because it sort of looks like a bowling bag and he doesn't feel too emasculated, but I KNOW I'm gonna be on my own for this one.
This will definitely not be an everyday bag.
Pretty yes - practical, no.
