Leather thickness for a satchel
I've been asked to make a satchel, and the requirements are it has to be..."sturdy, but not rigid". I'm about to order some Lamport from Metropolitan Leather which comes in either 1.5mm or 2.0 - 2.5mm and I'd like some feedback on what you guys would suggest. With the thicker option I can thin down the gussets no problem and leave the main bag and full thickness, or make the entire thing out of 1.5 - if that won't be too thin.
Any advice would be appreciated. TIA.

I bought some Lamport on Friday and I got the 1.7mm to make bags. I could upload a video of it so u see how it moves.
