I ordered this bag to take on a two week Euro trip. I used it to carry practical things like my wallet, wipes, water bottle, and phone.  It arrived extremely quick especially considering where it came from. The bag arrived with a strong factory smell of cigarettes and chemicals. I let it air out for several days with a scented satchel inside to remove the smell and it worked. The style of the bag is very nice and the quality is what you get for the low price you pay. There were several parts where the stitching was sticking out but very minimal. Everything was fine but on the 12th day I noticed the straps were detaching from the bag so that concluded my usage of the bag since I didn't want to risk being stuck carrying a back in my hands because of poor straps.
