Stiff nylon? It's a sturdy fabric, like it's waterproof. There are no noticeable scratches or stains, but the zipper and round hardware have some dullness, so it's priced affordably! Inside, there's one pocket. It's a size that can hold a wallet, phone, and handkerchief! It's a clean casual and elegant waist pouch. I think it would be cute worn as a crossbody bag! - Brand: TOPKAPI - Color: Gray - Material: Canvas - Country of Manufacture: Japan - Strap: Adjustable Thank you for looking.
