I washed the bag before listing it. Its clean and comes from a non smoking household. There is a small zippered pouch on the front. The zipper works. The closure style is a sting that when pulled closes the bag. The bag has a round bottom (not flat) and seems good for carrying a beach towel. Based on the look of the care tags inside I'm guessing its from the 90s. The clasp at the bottom of the bag is tight. Dimensions of the bag are: 14" at the top, and about 18" long.
