NIce Quality, Just a Few Suggestions

I’m quite happy with this bag so far, as it seems to be made with quality materials. Aside from a slightly crooked front pouch line (the one without a zipper) that would probably not bother anyone else on the planet, it feels well constructed, and is just the right size for me (smallest version). I expect it will serve me well for a long time. My suggestions are as follows:

1. I would prefer that the front pouch also have a zipper, as I can imagine rain finding its way into it - there’s no way to seal it. This is somewhat counter to the waterproof zipper design used for the other compartments.
2. I wish there were a couple of pen pockets inside the main pouch, preferably in the rearmost one, as there is no way to put pens in any of the pouches that would make it easy to quickly grab one - they tend to sink to the bottom of any of the pockets I’ve put them in.

Aside from these minor quibbles, I’m very happy with the bag and am glad I bought it - a good value for the price paid.

Strap too short.

Strap too short. I’m disappointed that I have to pay another $30 to get a strap that fits properly.

Just what I needed!

Got tired of carrying a heavy backpack around when all I needed was a laptop and some keys. The crossbody really does the trick. Great quality like all of their stuff.

Another great product

This is my third Waterfield bag, and like the previous two, I'm very happy with it. Keep up the good 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.
