Customer Review: Ok for occasional use
Rating: 3 Stars
I bought this to use at Universal Studios - Orlando. When folded up and stored in the pouch, it's about 3/4 the size of a business card. In order to get to fold this small, the fabric is pretty thin. But I had no issues with being ripped even though I was pretty rough with it.
I do have a couple of issues with it however. First, the strap. I'm on the smaller side so I have to adjust the strap so that it's at its shortest length. However, if you put medium weight items into the bag, the strap slips back to the longest length. I was constantly adjusting the strap.
The second is the fact that my items frequently got lost in the bottom of the bag. Because the bag is soft and flexible, things tend to get shifted around.
In summary,
Pros: Lightweight, Portable, Convenient
Cons: Straps slip, Items shift in bag
Customer Review: Horrible quality.

I thought this would be a good bag to bring with me on trips instead of lugging around a big tote bag or purse, since I could just fold it up and pack it in my luggage or pocket when I didn't need it. Unfortunately the quality of this bag - at least the one I received - was appalling. I didn't keep anything sharp or overly heavy in it when I used it - a wallet, compact camera, small cosmetics bag, things of that nature - and I carried it either over my shoulder or across my body while walking around downtown Austin and Dallas, meaning I wasn't roughing it camping or hiking or anything that would have caused serious wear and tear quickly. But the inside fabric kept fraying every single day, getting so bad to the point that there were huge long bunches of threads that kept getting caught in everything by the third day. By the time I got home on the fifth day, the fraying started to compromise the integrity of the bag and the seams were coming undone; it was so far gone that I had to throw it out. $10 for a bag I used for a couple hours total? Definitely not worth it.
Also, I had to adjust the shoulder strap to the smallest possible length because I'm short and while I didn't have a problem with the length, I had a major problem with the strap NEVER staying to where I adjusted it and it always undid itself and went back to the longest length. Quite a pain having to readjust it multiple times a day.
Next time I'll spend the extra money on a better bag.
