Wow.  Hard to describe.  Half the bag is not usable, and the picture is misleading.  if you fold the straps down to where the zipper pokes out  a little, those sides are just empty &#34;flaps&#34;, you can't put anything in them, even when they are in the &#34;up&#34; position.  The zipper cuts straight across the midline of the bag, and the handles hold up the flaps.  I got it in grey, and its pure plastic.
