For the price this is a great case. The biggest issue is the little metal feet which get held on like a snap to the outer fabric, these will probably break off if you are traveling with a band in a bus, or if they catch on something, but with a little caution they can be preserved. The rest of the case seems sturdy enough. Either way the feet won't stop it from doing its job. The case is light, compact and offers enough protection for my daily subway journey.
