This bag was only thirteen bucks so I wasn't too concerned with the quality.  The straps and outer shell material are slightly plasticy, but overall it's a really cute summer bag.  The material is not canvas or cottony... It's more like a mild feeling plastic pleathery material.  The chains are noisy, but I figured they would be. It also took weeks to be delivered from china, which I also expected.

This won't last more than one long season, but it'll hold up long enough to go on vacation and tote it around through the summer.  I don't mind the cheapness at all because my expectations were already low to begin with.  It's a cute bag and I'd probably buy another one if this one holds up ok this summer.
