This bag was recommended by a friend - a friend to whom I will be forever grateful.  I purchased it from a store in Fort Lauderdale and paid considerably more than Amazon's price.  I travel internationally 11 months of the year this bag is perfect for travel.  It goes in my carry-on during travel keeping my travel documents, money and credit cards secure while traveling.  It then doubles as a great purse to use when I reach my destination and don't want to carry the large purse I use when travelling.  It is lightweight and very roomy.  Best purchase I've made in a long time. . .
