Here are some pics...even on the longest setting it doesn’t work for me as a shoulder bag. I was able to fit more than I thought in the bag.

The closures on the side also buckle at the top...I don’t plan to use it as a shoulder bag so never really thought about it. Anyhow here are more pics.

Thank you! There's no way it can be worn crossbody!! I don't know why the website says shoulder or crossbody wear!
Well I have to say, the buzz is not unfounded! I went over to Coach/Nordstrom's just to check it out first hand. 
Both styles are definitely upscaled a bit in size from the vintage original. The VB pouch is a bit over 6in across.
The color on the shoulder bag changed with the light. At first glance I swore it was burnt orange. But it is more tomato-y, if that makes sense.
In Coach, the super nice young women brought out and showed me the geometric clutch in ivory (just as stunning as the yellow) and a color block and the Emory and Rambler in the fuschia-y shade. And a tiny long belt bag in ivory. And then she brought out a taupe Dinky and indicated the leather was intentionally softer. Like Costa Rica vintage soft.
The bags will be going out on the floor next week.

I couldn’t quite figure that out myself either..maybe they’ll post a video tutorial showing how to adjust the straps for crossbody wear....
Crossbody sits higher on the body these days given the trend of wearing waist bags diagonally across the chest.
Thanks for the pics! I'm more of a handheld bag girl myself but I do like where the bag sits as a shoulder bag. Whew, definitely on my wishlist now.
That’s so interesting! I wonder if it’s the only style where the leather was made intentionally softer... and what does that entail? As in, can I dunk those bags 20 years later? Haha
I like my crossbody to hit at the hip, but I definitely see what you’re saying. On this one just depends on the individual.
To me the turnlock shoulder is not small at all and definitely not tiny. I forgot to take a mod shot of it. I can't pick it up until next week as but I did it as a pre-sale purchase. I think you'll be pleasantly pleased with how much it holds. And the emerald color is gorgeous IRL.
ETA: Oh I see Catness has provided more intel above.

I’m not sure if they can be dunked as they are lined whereas the vintage ones are raw inside.
Anyone own a new rambler and cassie to compare sizes?
