I can definitely see where this bag would be very practical for frequent travelers. The nylon construction feels like Godzilla couldn't tear into it, INCREDIBLY strong. I haven't tested it by intentionally trying to puncture or slice it, but it feels super duper strong to me. The nylon is also very flexible! Non-stretch, but you can fold/roll/squish it into a very small shape when it's empty. This is great for travel too; you can have a much larger carry-on and "personal item" with this little purse folded up & tucked away into a small pocket for use once you reach your destination. The interior segments and pockets are also nylon, with a small top panel & strap made from thicker, more substantial material (leather??). The nylon also makes it EXTREMELY lightweight! Even when I fill it with my essential going-out goods (phone, keys, ID, money, makeup, medicine), it's so light that I'm constantly paranoid that I've forgotten something. And, it may slip off your shoulder unnoticed because of it's lightness. Actually, having one side of the strap be a rougher, woven texture would really help keep it in place, so that would be an awesome upgrade for a future design! I'm giving it 4 stars for it's intended audience: seasoned, frequent travelers who need something small, lightweight, practical, and indestructible. For myself, I'd give it closer to a 2. It's plain & ugly, though I can (and will) decorate it with a couple of cool patches. It's an odd size for me: too small to hold my everyday items, most notably my wallet does not fit, but even without a chunky wallet it struggles to hold all my medicines, lip balms, mini notebooks, breath mints, etc. On the other hand, it's a little too big for what I call a "bar purse" (which holds ID/money/phone/lip gloss) and looks a bit clunky with most "going out" outfits. And, I discovered that while the card-sized interior pockets are the right size for my ID & credit cards, they're actually TOO tight and it's really awkward to get them out! It's definitely not going to happen quickly! The other pocket/sections are a bit too loose & easy to misplace things, aside from the zipper pocket which is perfect. My last beef is with the strap: I wish it were a tiny bit longer, had a slide adjustment instead of a buckle, and were textured on one side to keep it on my shoulder. But, I don't think I'm the target market for this handbag, and it's really perfect for a lot of things I don't tend to do. So, I'm giving it 4 stars for the actual people who need a bag like this.
