I bought this for a 2 week Euro-trip, because I wanted to keep my most important things on my body. It worked fine. The material is like thin terry-cloth and got pretty worn by the end of the trip. Also, it holds a ton of moisture - whether you get caught in a little rain or are just hot and start to sweat there. Overall, it worked for what I needed, but I'm probably tossing it now.
