The purse is made out of good quality leather. The strap is leather with bottom made with textile. I do not mind the textile. I've had a Fossil bag in the past with the same kind of strap and it worked for me very well. The medium size is perfect for everyday use, not too small, not too big or heavy. Combination of colors goes with many outfits. Quality of leather and craftsmanship is great. I am very happy with this purchase.
