I mean of course for that price they can't do it in leather (well, if they wanted they could but clearly they don't), but agh... it looks like those horrible asian like bags, that are made out of that material pretending to be suede and then is covered in metallic spray paint that rubs off and smells like oil. I know it's a cash grab/brand expanding exercise for these labels, but for prospective new customers to the mainline collection, I think it may put them off even buying that.

Wasn't terribly suprised to see this on target.com under customer reviews..."The quality of this product is terrible. I purchased it this weekend, used it once, and had to return it immediately. The strap began to fall apart and the color began to rub off after just one use. Save your money, it is not worth it."
