Only you lug around a kitchen sink! For me it’s only heavy when I carry around my work stuff, but I also drive to work so my shopper doesn’t stay on my shoulder for long. Otherwise for day to day I don’t notice digging

Thanks! I think I’m going to get the Handheld (I just realized you can also wear it crossbody) as a camera bag. I’ll post pics when I get it.Only you lug around a kitchen sink!

Be aware that the actual color of stone is different than it appears on the site. I bought the handheld in stone and returned it because I thought it would be grey and it was beige. 
Thanks, this helps! It looks a little more green in real life? And a bit lighter too? Did you exchange it for another color?
Yea I’d say it’s definitely on the warmer side. For best pictures I’d say look at how different bloggers style it in natural light!

The tricky thing is- I'm pretty sure the website photos (and the photo you shared) are of the leather version, that's not made anymore. That color appears more grey. The technic leather was totally different.
Ohhh how peculiar! Well, in any case, I ordered the bag over the weekend, so I will report back with photos and commentary on what the Technik stone color looks like to me!
I just received the VH clutch today and am very pleased with it. I have the handheld and the shoulder bag in leather. This is Technik. It is a good size, holds a lot and is my only white bag. I have always been afraid of a white bag, but this one is worry free! I am learning to "clutch," lol. I am a big bag lady and most of my bags are huge. So this is new to me. But one is never too old to move on. So here she is.
Addendum. I had to remind myself that this bag is NOT leather. I have been playing in the world of designer leathers, Bottega Veneta, Proenza Schouler, Massaccesi. I am really spoiled to the finest Italian leathers. This is different, but no less lovely in its way. Eco friendly, low or no maintenance etc. I hope I don't get so used to nice leathers that I miss out on products that are really nice. Well enough from me today!!!!
Exciting! My Handheld was shipped yesterday and is expected to be delivered on Tuesday. I’m glad to hear the technik leather is nice! I really hope I like the Stone color!
I do too. It looks great to me. That is a color that goes with everything!! And to me, the handheld looks really classy in stone. Post your pix, so we can enjoy it with you.
Here’s the Handheld in Stone. For reference, my nail polish is Essie Chinchilly since taupes are hard to gauge
The bag quality looks good (stitching, edging, etc), and is very light. The opening is narrower than I expected though, so it may not work for what I wanted this for (camera bag). I will know by next week if I’ll keep or not (getting a new lens that I want to try and fit into this bag mounded on my camera body).
