Essential Cross Body Pouch is a very practical cross body carrier

I have plenty of room to carry my sunglasses, wallet, a notepad and pen all in the open front section and the small zippered section. That leaves the entire large zipped section available for any incidentials that my day might require. The quality of materials and workmanship are of the highest quality. Waterfield products are unmatched. I still use a Waterfiield courier bag that is over 30 years old.

The Perfect Size

Terrific combination of quality and functionality. The size is just right — not so big you overfill and have a heavy bag, but just big enough to be useful. Great for dog walking, short hikes, travel, and trips around town where you need a few gadgets with you. Love it!

Good travel/daily bag

Just big enough for iPhone, iPad, keys and a wind shirt, so perfect for late spring through to early autumn walks. Handle for travel access to passport, tickets when travelling with other bags.

WaterField Designs Essential Crossbody Pouch (Merch)

GBAtemp - September 13, 2022

“Delivering practicality with a minimal and stylish design, the Essential Crossbody Pouch from WaterField Designs is a handy expansion to your daily gear.”

Overall: 8.5 out of 10


SIZE GUIDE

The Essential Crossbody Pouch is ideal for a iPad Mini and for carrying essentials like phone, wallet, keys, and earbuds.

COMPACT AND CONVENIENT

 

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

 

Keep your iPad Mini (or similarly-sized tech device) 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 three sizes of the Essential Crossbody Collection each fit a different device you carry with you. The Crossbody for 11-inch iPad Pro fits Apple's 11-inch iPad and similarly-sized tablets, the Crossbody Pouch fits an iPad Mini and similarly-sized devices, and the smallest of them all, 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, Crossbody Pouch, and a Backpack.
