I am resubmitting my review because the more I use this item the more I love the compliments I am receiving. Tote is even nicer than described! The hardware is top quality, the zipper slides effortlessly, and the piece looks ridiculously expensive. No one would believe I purchased it at the price point I did! The handles are well sewn and attached to the bag quite well so that I am confident carrying a good amount of weight. I can fit legal size files in it too. LOVE it! My find of the year. Thank you Scarleton! Bring me more items like this!!! (PS- I experienced no odor issue as reported by some reviewers - NONE).
