This cape was the perfect accessory for my 4 year old (who wanted to be Puss N' Boots for Halloween).  It was inexpensive to purchase so I wasn't surprised it is quite thin and looks like it won't last long.  That said, she's worn it around for a month now with no problems (no rips or tears).  The neck hole was a little big for her (she's 4) so it bunched a bit in the front when I tied it snug for her, but all-in-all, it was a good buy.
