I have the same monster - sits in my closet - tried to attach a strap to it but it hung bad - sad because it is such a cool looking bag
it's so heavy even with very little in it. I love it so much though. All the things that make it heavy; the brass, the vachetta leather, the size, are what make it so beautiful. I've thought about selling it numerous times, but I can't bring myself to do it.

This monster. Every time I carry it I remind myself why I don’t... it’s a burden but i love it.

It is indeed a very cool looking bag. I've always loved that line of turnlocks. I assume the largest "receptacles" would also be use-able with the main "male end"? I mean, for example, if you'd overflow the bag with, say, a sweater or something, could you actually put the turnlock on the outermost receptacle so that the closure strap is indeed holding in the additional bulk of the sweater? (Even if you couldn't zip it.) Hard to explain, but I've always imagined that in a case like that, it might actually prove functional.

(And as for big bags ... I have a large Campbell satchel that I love for a multitude of reasons, which is probably about that same size as this Legacy, and although mine is not so heavy, it is still way bigger than I could ever justify. Still won't get rid of it though. It's main function, to be honest, is holding a couple smaller Campbell's I have. There's no inherent shame in keeping a bag just because it makes you smile. :smile: )

Yes, you can use the turnlock straps to extend the bag. I've done it. But there really is no need the bag is really roomy inside.
