What material are the buckles made from? Also, does the bag have padding or lining inside? If so, what is the material?

The buckles are a shiny stainless steel. The bag is lined with nylon except for the top flap, which has a suede-like lining. There is a zipper compartment in the middle of the bag but it is not padded. I carry my laptop in a sleeve I already owned.

The buckles are nickle colored, probably and alloy. There is a cloth lining, the inside of the outer flap is suede.

The buckles appear to be an alloy, though they look and feel substantial enough to last. As Dr. Ron stated in his review, the bag's interior has a nylon lining like you would see in the inside of a messenger bag, backback or laptop bag.

Buckles are heavy metal buckles, no liner in the interior pockets. Good heavy bag with tons of room

It is made of polyester. My wife has had it over a year and it still looks very nice. I would recommend this bag.

Seems to be made of a variety of fabrics - the Swiss Gear Backpack Features says: "breathable fabric".I really love it, especially the padded shoulder straps.

The bag is made from a fine nylon (or similar) mesh. Much, much finer than a window screen. Hope this helps.

It's not a bag. Think of it more as a fitted sheet with a thin, somewhat vinyl top. It's not padded. The sides are a sheet material.

There is some padding on the bottom but no removable padding. The padding in it is just fine for me. I really like the bag.

There are not any tags present to indicate the origin of the material, but I cannot see any evidence of animal remains in the makeup of the bag. The outer shell is a canvas material, and the bag is lined with an apparently water resistant material (reminds me of thick tent material. The straps are of the woven variety, fixtures are metallic, and zippers are flexible plastic. No leathers, furs, teeth, bones, etc.

Thanks for contacting us with your question. The studded bag has a magnetic closure underneath the leather, and holds very well.

They seem to be a kind of mix of nylon and cotton. They are durable, whatever the material is. My children have used and re-used their bags since we bought them for a birthday party in October.

The bag does not have any padding. Is thin but tough. We checked in the bag and did not have any issues except some dirt on the bag.

It has both zipper and a buckle. You can secure a small tripod with the 2 straps provided underneath. Great bag for price.

The back and bottom are fabric. The back plane of the backpack has a semi-rigid piece inside surrounded by soft padding and a soft breathable nylon fabric exterior along its entire length. The bottom piece is a heavy nylon fabric with some padding. There is nothing like rubber feet or plastic runners to keep ground contact to a minimum. If the bag is dragged or slid across a rough surface it will begin to show. I found this bag to be better quality than most of the bags in the school supply isle at my local department store and as good or better quality than many at the local sporting goods/ camping supply store. The quality far exceeds the price.

I checked my bag and I would say it has about 1/2" of padding. Plenty of padding to carry around but like rdwalker26 answered it will probably not hold up to airline travel.

Not certain but, the material is embossed and made so near like leather that I was happy with it. It has the metal feet on the bottom as all good bags have.It is the PERFECT RED, if you are looking for a true red. I love the CLASSIC style and shape; rather Channel inspired. I am very picky and have loved this since day one. Great for office and casual. I carry it a lot and always get compliments on it.

It's made of a sort of cloth material, kind of a rough cloth that can stand up on its own. I don't have it with me right now, but I don't think there was a lining. The pouch is separated into two pockets, though.

Yes they use a heavy Fabric in the constrution of these bags similar to a suitcase plus they still have a padded lining on the inside,,if bumped or dropped should be well protected but wont stop a bullet lol

I am somewhat confused by the question....when you roll the bag down there are two buckles that go across the top of the bag, and then there is a buckle on either side of the bag that snaps down....it looks confusing at first, but package it and roll it down, and you'll understand.....we just used it again on a motorcycle trip this weekend and love it
