With five liters of extra capacity, it holds more than the original and includes a new dedicated pocket for inserting your laptop inside a sleeve. Now in new black waxed canvas.

IT'S ELEGANTLY SIMPLE
The minimalist design and open interior lets you carry whatever you need in this versatile, lightweight bag.
“The WaterField Vitesse Cycling Musette is a comfortable bag that's unfussy and not trying to do anything other than be a perfectly simple little bag.”
- Wirecutter (New York Times), April 27, 2020
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.
THE VITESSE MUSETTE COLLECTION
The Vitesse Musette Collection has a straightforward, uncomplicated design — ideal for your minimalist, lightweight everyday carry. Choose from three sizes: the small Vitesse Cycling Musette, the medium Vitesse Musette Plus, or the large Vitesse Messenger Bag.
Made from premium waxed canvas.
THE MUSETTE BACKSTORY
In the cycle racing community, musettes are used to store lunch so riders can eat while on the bike. The musette's simple, roomy interior is ideal for carrying assorted replenishments and makes it easy to quickly access.
WaterField's Vitesse Musette Collection takes the musette beyond its cycling roots, adding modern features to make it more comfortable, functional, and stylish for everyday use.
