Fantastic bag. This is my second Minicat and I love them both. They are just the ticket for making quick runs to lunch, to the grocery, bank, etc. I had the small vertical first and loved it. I wanted something just a bit bigger and this one fit the purpose perfectly. Workmanship is excellent -- stitching, zippers, compartments are all very good. Synthetic leather is very attractive. Does not look faux at all. Hardware is gold.
