I bought for my son, the pencil case. He has always been too cumbersome to sort all the pins into the pencil case, or having to carry around a second for scissors and glue! The pins he needs most, he stowed in the built-in flap with loops and the rest is loosely prepared. In a zippered compartment can fine lunch money, or other small things are kept. I can not say much, but processing seems to be very good on the shelf! I'm very satisfied and would buy it again!
