Uses

Hands-free crossbody wear with a strap you can tie to your length

Carry this soft fabric crossbody bag hands-free with its single shoulder strap. The strap can be tied to suit your needs, so you can adjust the length you wear it at—and the tying creates ruching that changes with the length you choose. A full-length zip and a small interior zip pocket keep your everyday carry contained while you're out and about.[1,2]

Utu Kukasta Kukkaan Crossbody Bag: Choose this if you want a soft, slouched crossbody with a designer touch: it features Erja Hirvi's Kukasta Kukkaan print in black and navy blue tones, and its fabric strap can be tied to your preferred length, creating ruching that shifts with the adjustment. It closes with a full-length zip, includes a small interior zip pocket, and is made of 100% polyamide fabric and lining. Note it comes in one size and has a soft, crescent-shaped, gathered silhouette that sits on a flat base.[1,2]Merirosvo Knit Crossbody Bag: Choose this if you want a small, lightweight everyday crossbody in a bold signature print. Its firm rib knit in 100 percent recycled polyester holds its shape well, and a zip top plus long tubular knit strap keep it easy to wear hands-free. Note it is not waterproof—it only withstands a small amount of moisture—so it is better suited to dry conditions than heavy rain.[3,4,5,6]Iloisa Unikko Small Crossbody Bag: Choose this if you want a small, lightweight crossbody in Marimekko's iconic Unikko floral print, done this season in tones of green on a pink background. It is made of rugged 100% polyester with a top zip, two zippered compartments plus a small front zip pocket, and a long braided rope strap that attaches with clips. Note it measures just 7 inches long by 4.25 inches high by 2 inches wide, so it suits carrying only the essentials.[7,8,9]
