This bag is very well made with a thick, wool fabric and what appears to be a black cotton lining. Inside is a deep, zippered pocket. The decorative black design on the front also appears under the flap, on the front of the bag. There are two buttons and black cotton loops for securing the flap to the front (top and bottom). All in all, well designed and constructed and a nice shade of gray. However, the strap is about 10" longer than it should be and lacks enough button holes, so at least two button holes will have to be added if you're under about 5'9", which I am. I won't be able to use it until I find the time to learn how to make button holes. Also, the bag was folded and stuffed into a small Tyvek mailing envelope without even being put in a plastic bag first, and arrived wrinkled. If you're tall enough, it's a great casual bag.
