Well made bag. Quick delivery. Waterfield designs quality is excellent. Primarily use the bag when riding my bike. Holds all the gear and keeps secure with a cobra buckle.

Absolutely LOVE IT!!

It's never hard to write reviews for SF Bags and Waterfield Designs. Again, this Vitesse sling is a hit with me. I didn't realize how much I needed this size bag. I can keep it inside my other VITESSE bags, or just grab and go when all I need is the sling. This bag is a winner with me. I've got both the blue and the brown waxed. I love them both.

Never disappointed.

I have several Waterfield bags, and they have all held up under wear and tear beautifully. I love the sling in blue. It’s very simple and a good size for my EDC. I like how the internal pocket is constructed to avoid unnecessary stitching. I can tell this bag will last a lifetime.

Great EDC bag.

I’ve bought the Tech Sling and mini hip sling bag but the Vitesse is my favorite. Great bag for EDC.

THE VITESSE COLLECTION 

 

Our Vitesse bags have an uncomplicated design, making each an ideal lightweight everyday carry. All are handcrafted from premium 15 oz. waxed canvas and feature quality hardware. These bags are built to last.  

Vitesse bags highlight the natural beauty of waxed canvas and the enduring appeal of simple, straight-forward design. They are un-lined to show off the raw beauty of rugged waxed canvas. 

 

The collection has expanded from messenger bags to include a Backpack, a Crossbody, a small Sling, a Duffel, and a Briefcase. See the Vitesse Collection here.   

 

 

 

 

ELEGANTLY SIMPLE

The minimalist design and open interior of the Vitesse Sling lets you carry whatever you need in this versatile, lightweight pack.  
 

HEAVY-DUTY 15 OZ. WAXED CANVAS

Not all waxed canvas bags are created equal. Lower quality bags use 6 oz. canvas. The majority designated as “durable” use 12 oz. canvas. At 15 oz., our waxed canvas exceeds what is commonly sold in the market, yet it's still lightweight. It has a naturally rugged, distressed look and can be re-waxed to freshen it up. 

The canvas comes from a reputable U.S. mill that has produced these fabrics since 1930. This specialized textile is coated with Martexin Original Wax™ and shouldn't require much cleaning. Stains can be wiped off with a damp cloth. 

HOW TO FRESHEN UP YOUR CANVAS

Keep your bag Vitesse Backpack looking new by applying wax when you think it needs a little refresh. Although you can use any wax, you may want to try Martexin Original Wax™ which was initially used to coat your canvas bag.
