I wanted a denim 1941 bag, but the regular Rogue style and the Swaggers just don't appeal to me. I like the looks of the satchel. I would have preferred the handles not be snake, but I'm not going to fuss at that price, especially when I'll probably just tuck them into the side pockets and use the strap anyway. I also have a lot of bags to rotate among, so this one won't necessarily see a lot of use. It does feel heavy, but I don't think it will be a problem. I haven't actually used it yet, so we will see. Ultimately, though, I just think it's gorgeous and fell in love.
