I know some of us are waiting for another lucky dip to arrive and thought it would be nice to continue the chat.

Was at a pub quiz last night arguing with my friend about what size her bag is. (It's a small) she's adamant it is medium. 🤣🤣 Though I'm completely confused by the sizing. As I'm sure the ones I looked at in a gift shop the other day were medium. Hence why I asked for medium and got what I thought was large.

Small in a Finchley looks medium to me until you turn it round and look at the back panel which shows it is not that deep. The flap and extra room above the straps makes it confusing!

I had a long dentists appointment today ( I was very brave and anyway it didn’t hurt at all) and on the way back to the car detoured through the local TKMaxx. It must have been the remains of the anaesthetic confusing me because I seem to have treated myself to a Finchley A in Sicilian orange. £19.99. So not just the dentist making me smile today.

That’s a good price - there was one on my local TK Maxx a few days ago but for £24.99. I might have snaffled the Paddington backpack for £19.99 though 🙂

I got the same in one of my lucky dips and I love the bag and the colour 😃

@Whataboutye I'm in Ireland and am waiting on my order. I expect I will get an email asking for an invoice too then. Out of interest, how long did it take for your bag to arrive?

5 days in total, from when i ordered it. including being stuck in Athlone, for 2 days. I didn't even have to send the invoice. It arrived at the house, before I had the chance to sent it. 😀 customs opened it though. And cleared it. Roka send me the Invoice immediately, so if it comes to that, you'll have it straight away.

My second lucky dip arrived and I’m pleased - phew! So I now have two Finchley As - one lemongrass (which was a swap on here) and one Aqua. Happy with that! Although I didn’t really need either ..

Snappyteabread · 04/02/2023 16:08

I'm selling this if anyone is interested. Bantry B medium in mint £40.94 second signed for.

I'd swap for a Canfield mustard? Brand new with tags.

Snappyteabread · 04/02/2023 16:29

Thank you but I've already done a swap o another one so I need to sell this one now.

Freezingtoes · 04/02/2023 20:07

Hi,

I’m hoping to swap a Bantry C medium in emerald if anyone is interested? I would love a Finchley or a Canfield B in teal, grey, slate, lavender, aqua or sage. I would consider something similar though. Thank you 😀

I'd be very interested in swapping for my Canfield in Mustard but suspect that isn't your colour just as it isn't mine!

Freezingtoes · 05/02/2023 09:51

Thank you @ScienceRocks , perfect bag but not my colour either! Good luck with a swap.

weknowfrogsgotralalalala · 05/02/2023 22:00

I broke and ordered a second one.

Very pleased with number 2, it’s a medium Finchley in aqua - though it looks darker than the aqua in the website so I wonder if there was an issue with the colour during manufacturing?

Either way, I’m very pleased. Now I need to restrain myself 😳

bringincrazyback · 05/02/2023 22:07

Got to say I LOVE the 'Creative Waste' designs ROKA have just put on their site! There's no way I can justify a fifth ROKA (and a full-price one at that), though, sadly. 😂

Toddlerteaplease · 06/02/2023 09:09

To really like them as well.

BriceNobeslovesMurielHeslop · 06/02/2023 12:51

Been a while since I dipped into this thread, but does anybody else feel they’ve seen A LOT more Rokas in the street in the last month or so? Maybe I’m just noticing them more.

IhearyouClemFandango · 06/02/2023 14:22

Not in real life, but they’re all over Vinted, new in packaging 😁

IhearyouClemFandango · 06/02/2023 14:23

I got a Finchley medium in aqua 👍

IhearyouClemFandango · 06/02/2023 14:24

I do love a lucky dip, could get totally addicted to the surprise 😂

Toddlerteaplease · 06/02/2023 14:29

They've now brought out a bag wry a waterproof umbrella compartment in it. I would love one of these. But really do t need it!
