So @houseof999 , and anyone else that owns one, the big-mouth kisslock Bag on your second shelf in your avi, how is it to use? I have been seeing a lot of listings lately for them and that big kisslock opening fascinates me. At first I dismissed it as something I could not use on an everyday basis. But over the last year, I have gotten my essentials down to a smaller wallet and two slim VB pouches. So now I am curious. Thanks in advance for any thoughts.

I have one. I can fit a full sized wallet and still have room for other things. I think your stuff would fit. The only thing is that when the mouth is open you can't have any small items near the top or they might fall out.
 
Hi... I would like to ask about STRAP in SONOMA natural grain line..

I wonder if the strap in the 4316 Sonoma Large Hobo is different than in other sonoma single strap bags such as in :
• 4920 Pocket Shopper
• 4916 Large Bucket Natural Grain

I am looking for a Sonoma and I don’t have one and never have seen one. I am torn between couple of Sonomas on sale, and this strap thing could be a deal breaker.

Thank you in advance.

What don't you like about the strap? It can be adjusted to any shoulder drop.

Hi whateve. On the contrary, I like the sonoma strap. The indefinite length makes it easy to adjust from shoulder carry to xbody.

I want to have a sonoma, and could not decide among 4316 large hobo, 4920 pocket shopper, 4927 soft bucket, or 4907 small bucket zip.

Then couple days ago, I saw a listing of 4316 large hobo in ebay, and I got a sense the strap is slightly wider than other sonoma. Wider is better for me for more comfort.

So for sonoma owners, i need your opinion :smile:
 
Belicious, your bags look so good! And their glow!!!

May I ask what the final product was that you used on these? I’ve been using Obenauf’s LP as my last step on some bags instead of Blackrock lately.
Thanks! I use Obenauf's oil, Leather CPR and blackrocks depending on the bag and the condition. The orange big mouth bag was in pretty great condition when I got it so I think I have only ever put CPR on it because I don't want to change the color. The brown one is really dry and stiff. Actually I could possibly make a second, more concerted effort to rehab it again. I might check it for shoe polish, also cover the spot on the kisslock where the leather is damaged. It's been a while since she had any attention.
