Bought it for a beach bag. Very lightweight. Durable material. Nice to have a wide opening since my bag has multiple items so easy to find items. Plus it zips close if wind blows sand. I am 5’3” and the handles are short enough that the bag doesn’t hit the ground when full (barely clears ground by less than an inch). Comfortable over shoulder.Will take on vacations. Would be great for laundry runs. Handy store all in a car for jackets, snacks, etc. I would not use it for a checked bag(too many ways for it to catch on baggage carousel) However, check your airline requirements, it could be a useful carryon. Comes in an small matching carry bag that is attached to the interior of the beach bag.Liked this so much, I bought two.
