I really love this purse.  I have had several LeSportsac purses over the course of 15 years.  I noticed with this purse the material is heavier than the ones I purchased several years ago, however with everything I put in the purse (glasses case coin purse wallet, cell phone, makeup etc) it is still lighter than a lot of other purses.  Great because it doesn't feel too heavy on your shoulder.  I have always loved the way these purses are easy to clean.
