SLINGS & CROSSBODY BAGS

We've been committed to making products in the USA since our start in 1998. Back then, off-shore manufacturing was the prevailing trend, and many sewing shops in San Francisco were shuttered.

We wanted hands-on experience with the products we were making — from the idea phase to final production. We wanted to ensure things were done right, make changes on the fly, and iterate on the design as needed.

Our small-batch production fits the types of products we offer — well-designed, custom-fit items you buy for life. You may have to wait a while for us to make it for you, but you know it will be well-made.

With WaterField American-made gear, you get high quality, long-lasting products. All our designs are original, incorporating details you'll appreciate with each use.

We use only premium, full-grain leather for our bags and accents. It comes from the toughest part of the hide with the tightest grain so it's extremely durable.

Full-grain leather looks better and better as it ages, and your WaterField bag will develop a beautiful patina.

Yes, we make a few different styles of crossbody laptop bags. Our Essential Crossbody is a crowd favorite. Many of our crossbody laptop bags also double as everyday crossbody bags, with enough room to carry extra gear and accessories.

A crossbody bag for laptops can generally always be used as a standard crossbody bag, but the reverse is usually untrue. Crossbody bags for laptops must be sized for laptops and have integrated compartments that accommodate laptops. When selecting your crossbody leather bag or waxed canvas bag, be sure to measure your computer and other personal items to ensure a perfect fit.

Our Crossbody bags and pouches are very versatile. The smaller pouches can be a great solution for carrying small devices and accessories, as well as everyday necessities. The larger bags can carry laptops and tablets, in addition to accessories and work gear.

Our crossbody bags come with adjustable straps that make finding a comfortable wearing position a breeze — wear it across the chest, in the back, or over one shoulder.
