First, I'll post several pics and tell me if you need me to post any more...I'll come back with my thoughts. I will say I'm disappointed that I didn't get the 1941 cotton dust bag...and the lock on the side isn't there. Also, there's no key keeper, even though I don't use mine that much, I like it being there. But I'm glad there isn't a coin purse inside of the bag, but a slot that's big enough to fit my phone.

Give me a few seconds while I upload more pics.
It's beautiful! I love the color combo. I'm very happy to hear it is much lighter weight.
 
It sure is amazing! Thanks for the pics. Have you weighed it to compare it to the medium rogue?
No, I haven't weighed it, but I'll say it's a significant difference. Now, unfortunately, when I carry my regular size Rogue I can really feel the weight, but I still like the regular size one in suede. I returned my oxblood Rogue today.
 
I want a white bag. I bought a mineral rogue and immediately the next week bought cornflower but I wanted chalk but I chickened out at the last minute. I have carried mineral and cornflower non stop since I got them and love the bag. But really want chalk. I think I like it better than cornflower. Now with no discount I don't want to buy chalk full price. I have looked at other white bags but I like the contrast of black with the white in the rogue. Should have went with my gut.

I hear ya! I bought both chalk and cornflower to take my time choosing only one. I loved chalk by not cornflower - or so I thought until I returned it. Now I keep thinking about it and look for pictures of the cornflower just to look at. (Mind you, I have three other bags in similar colors :p) Maybe we will get lucky down the line and find the ones we want at a good price. :graucho:

Oh no!! I do the same with the chalk. I know someone who bought it in person and I always feel a pain when I see it. Did you keep chalk?

I did keep chalk! I haven't carried it yet because I want to wear it with a pretty new dress I got. But it's been too cold for a dress lately. Maybe next week. [emoji3]

Anne I finally decided last night that I'm going to return mine. I loaded it up and I just can't do it. Way.Too. Heavy. PCE or no PCE if I'm not going to use it, or be in pain when I do, what's the point? If it was a little uncomfortable I might be able to suck it up. But it felt like I had just slung a boulder over my shoulder. Actually painful.

I am really looking forward to seeing the small when my store reopens.

I agree...and if I hadn't already used my suede Rogue, I would have returned it and purchased the Rogue 25 in saddle, due to the weight only. Initially, when I bought the Rogues and put them on my shoulder, I didn't feel the weight, but now I do, so that's an issue for me. Also, the Rogue 25, with it's depth, provides all the space I need.

If you can get past having brass hardware, I think you'll really like the chalk one. I love the oxblood handles, and as I've said in the past, I like the brass hardware on chalk bags.

That said, I do appreciate having a suede bag, my first, and highly recommend Apple Garde for protecting suede and light colored bags.

When did you say your store was reopening? So, are all Coach stores getting a facelift? I've heard a few people mention their stores were closed.
 
I just noticed this Rogue 25 with rivets has a lock. However, I want a plain chalk bag, but I wonder why they didn't put a lock on all of them?

Don't have an exact date on the reopening just "sometime in April" but who knows - that could get pushed out a week.

I am going to Montreal on Saturday which is where I purchased the Rogue, so I will return it there since I'm going to be there anyway.

THAT SUCKS. :-( Is it possible it was left off for some reason?? You should call and check!! That makes NO SENSE!!!

I guess the way to know for sure is if there is a place on the bag to hook the lock?

There isn't, and it wasn't on Teagaggle's either. I guess they will put the lock on the more expensive Rogue 25 bags. Still, for $595 they could have put it on.
