The bottom of this bag is tightly woven with paper raffia. The combination with the canvas gives it a casual feel that goes well with any outfit! It also has a zipper closure, so you can prevent the contents of the bag from falling out, which is a common problem with basket bags. (Make sure to close the zipper tightly.) There is one Pocket on the outside, three patch Pocket on the inside, and one zipper Pocket, so you can store small items inside the bag.
