Is amazing for non soliciting!

Have a bad back so was having a hard time finding a bag with enough pockets that would fit an iPad mini and magazines. This not only fit but was light as a feather! The interior is when this bag marvels! It’s like getting to know the secret person of the heart! You open up the black bag with one basic blue stripe… but on the inside… surprise! Its gold lining with dignified patterns looks like Cherubs could have been engrave

Works great with 15" MacBook Air

I'm a first time purchaser of Waterfield products. I was looking for a padded bag that fit my 15" MacBook Air. I had a messenger bag, it wasn't padded and it was a little awkward to carry. This bag fits me well, allows access to my MacBook Air and also my Remarkable tablet. The build quality looks good. I've had the bag for about 2 weeks and love the ease of using the shoulder strap and the carry handle on the back. I do wish the bag had narrow pockets for pens. The main compartment works great, the other pockets will take some time to configure. This is a slim bag which makes it easy to carry but frustrating if you want to stuff it full. I like the bag and look forward to using it.

Nicely designed, but poorly made. Buyer beware.

I have several Waterfield products and really wanted to add this bag to my collection. Although it's generally well-designed (with one or two small shortcomings), the bag I received was poorly made. The webbing on the back of the back was crooked, as was the "Waterfield" tag sewn on the side of the bag. When I first called these issues to the attention of their support team, they apologized for not inspecting the bag more carefully before they sent it. When it came to send the bag back for a refund, they backed off and said the bag met their quality standards so they would not pay for return shipping. After several emails back and forth, I just paid the $11 postage to send the bag back so I could get the cost of the bag itself refunded. It cost me over $16 in shipping fees to give the bag a try. I understand that Waterfield is not Amazon and can't pay return shipping when customers just change their minds, but that wasn't the case here. They never even offered to send me a replacement bag. Yes, they design nice bags, but buyer beware: If there's a problem with the bag the cost of sending it back is on you. Waterfield doesn't stand behind their work.

COMPACT AND CONVENIENT

 

The Essential Crossbody is all about convenience in a small package. Multiple access points and organizational pockets help you find your gear quickly and easily. 

 

Keep your laptop or tablet in a separate flush pocket within the main compartment. Access and organize frequently-used items  in  two exterior pockets — a secure, zippered one, or in the open front pocket.

ESSENTIAL CROSSBODY — WHICH SIZE FOR YOU?
 

The various sizes of the Essential Crossbody Collection each fit a different device you carry with you. However, if you're not carrying around a laptop or tablet, choose the size that best fits your need and stature. 

The small scale of the Compact Size is just right for daily use — at home or on trips.  It's extremely lightweight and keeps your hands free for other activities. Fits an iPad Mini. 

 

The Medium, Tall, and Ultra Sizes fit various MacBook and iPad sizes. They all highlight the convenience of the organizational pockets — no need to open the bag to access your wallet, keys, and other frequently-accessed items. These are kept in the external pockets for easy and quick retrieval. 

 

And, an even smaller Crossbody, the iPhone Pouch, fits the iPhone and other similarly-sized phones. 

THE ESSENTIALS FAMILY  

 

The Essentials Collection is a line of lightweight bags with a streamlined design, smart detailing, and features that focus on each bag's functional essence. The minimalist design delivers high impact. 

 

For durability, we use our custom-made abrasion- and water-resistant ballistic nylon which stays looking new for many years. It withstands prolonged sun exposure so your bag will stay looking fresh and new. 

 

These multi-functional, everyday bags are available as a Duffel, Messenger Bag, Backpack and Crossbody bags.
