I wish I had read the reviews before ordering. I was expecting a structured bag that held it’s shape. When it arrived folded, I know that it was not what I wanted, but I needed it for travel so I took it anyway. It is essentially a canvas tote bag, and gets its shape from whatever you put in the bag. The shoe compartment was a nice feature, but did not override my overall disappointment. Having traveled with it already, I would not recommend it.See full review
