¡hola todo!

why do you say malo or mala calidad? shouldn't the adjective agree with the noun it describes, in this case calidad which is feminine?

For example :
(este borso es de malo calidad)

Shouldn´t we say : ( este bolso es de MALA calidad ) , Since mala is an adjective to calidad not to bolso ?

¡muchas gracias!

The adjective must agree with the gender and number of the noun indeed.

For your example:

· Este bolso es de mala calidad.
· Este bolso es malo.


Final note: Your greeting should be "Hola a todos"; right now, you're addressing a collectivity of people, otherwise, that would be the infinite whole universe. ;)

La calidad es la mala.

El caso es malo.

Do you understand that?
