    Small vs Medium Cafe Bags

    I'm thinking of downsizing from my Large Cafe Bag to either Medium or Small (or possibly to a Ristretto.)

    According to this website, the measurements of the two cafe bags are as follows:

    Medium: 11' x 10' x 3'

    Small 11' x 7.5' x 3'

    The only difference, it seems, is in the width of the bag. Is that correct?

    No, that is not correct. There is both a height and width difference between the two I own, which the website used to correctly state. Unless the design recently changed.

    Just for info, the large bag has a detachable strap which can be swapped out for another, and the medium bag has the strap permanently attached.

    Also the medium has two large pockets and two pen pockets, but the small only has one large pocket and two pen pickets.

    Sorry, but unless they changed it recently, the large cafe bag's strap cannot be switched. My LCB from last year cannot have the strap switched.

    They must have changed it, because my LCB can most certainly have the strap swapped out. Mine has an Absolute strap on it atm
