Does anyone have this bag or seen it person? I am really thinking about getting this bag since I think it may be lighter than the all leather version. I am just wondering how the mesh will hold up.
 
I have the rocco in black mesh, had for a couple of weeks and I love it! It's lighter than the normal rocco, feels about the same as my pebbled rockie. So I guess the mesh rockie is even lighter still.

It slouches a lot more too due to the fabric so it's really casual looking. I'm glad I took the plunge! Seems like it will be more hard wearing too! 👍😃

Good to know it's lighter I can't handle a heavy bag on my arm and besides I carry a heavy bag all week to work so it will be nice to have something light on the weekend. The slouchiness should not been an issue for me since I bought a special purse organizer to keep that from happening. One other question is it more of a cotton mesh on a nylon mesh like more slick?

Hope these pics help...it's a heavy duty nylon mesh, I think it's a lot more practical actually...i tend to baby my cayenne rockie and my suede effect emile...this will be much more of a day yo day bag!

You should def take the plunge and get it, although I tend to stay away from 'seasonal' bag trends I think this will stand the test for years!

Thanks so much for sharing those photos! I never thought I would like the sportier look of the mesh Rockie, but it has definitely grown on me and is quickly moving to the top of my handbag acquisition list! I like the thought of not having to baby the leather since it will likely be worn as a crossbody more then anything else. I also love the look of the different black textures of the bag with the silver pop from the hardware. Would you mind providing a few mod shots? Was hoping for one of the bag worn in the crook of the arm as well as crossbody and just being worn on the shoulder. I truly appreciate your help in advance, thanks so much!
 
So excited! I just ordered my first Rockie. I always wanted one but I wasn't sure about the weight until I came across the mesh one. I have not seen it person yet but I am sure it will be love at first sight. I am even happier that I got a great deal from ssense on it I only paid $496 with expedited shipping. I cant wait to do a reveal when I get the bag. ImageUploadedByPurseForum1403991866.622063.jpg
 
I read that the mesh sits over leather anyway and it's the same weight, does anyone think that's true? I think I read it on Neiman Marcus' page. I'm curious because I have a chance to get one now too and I've only held the rockie lamb skin. I don't think it's too heavy though.
The mesh is really growing on me !! I love the slouch.
Thanks in advance :)
