It's pretty heavy even by itself, but not as much as the full calfskin Ricky. I bought my daughter the purple calfskin soft Ricky. She absolutely loves it.
She doesn't find it too heavy, but she's a young family practice Doctor. Ha ha!
I wouldn't get the mini. Way too small. The huge one is huge. Get the normal middle size. The one she bought. The normal soft Ricky. In the soft Ricky, I think that's the bigger one. It's not huge. In the calfskin Ricky, with the silver hardware, the size they are carrying is really big. The normal soft Ricky is perfect. It's not too heavy. Really beautifully made.
To me, and I bought my first LV in high school in the late 1970s, the Ricky bag quality is on a par with anything out there, including Hermes. It's a stunning bag. Mine gets better with age, like a glorious old fine saddle.
Didn't see this before I posted. I agree!
