I'd say its an ok bag, probably a 5 out of 10. Its vinyl so its not going to last as long as a leather bag. While Century makes alot of products, they are not known for manufacturing a high quality product. Yes, it may not last as long, and yes it may not be constructed as well, and yes it may not provide as good hand protection...BUT it does cost less than 100 bux and it will get the job done on a tight budget. If it gives you a solid 1 1/2-2 years, then you're doing good, and youll probably be in a position to upgrade anyway at that point.
Have fun beating the crap outta that thing !
