Excellent quality through and through. Why shop anywhere else? This embossed satchel has all the aloha, plus the incredibly sturdy and durable chrome that makes this a first-rate choice when it comes to purses. I am already looking to purchasing another satchel like this one, only the next one will be in blue with a different embossed design. The ONLY reason why I haven't done so yet is because I could use another 2-3" of room in height and/or width. Did I say that I love the heavy chrome adornments, especially the nubs on the bottom of the satchel that keeps my purse clean wherever I decide to put it down. It's definitely a gorgeous find that has made me one very Happy Wahine from Oahu (who now lives on da mainland. Boo hoo!)
