No matter how you slice it, crossbody bags are some of the most versatile bags a shopper can buy. Not only are they typically quite stylish, but they’re also ideal for travel considering their size. There are even quite a few types of crossbodies to consider: there are traditional crossbody bags (think camera bags) and there are also sling bags and belt bags, which can each be worn in various ways. Whichever style you choose, the majority feature adjustable straps so you can customize your own personal, comfy fit.

Luckily, when we turned to our Travel + Leisure team and some additional frequent travelers for their favorite bags, the results were packed with crossbodies of all types. We recommended dozens of items we already own and travel with often, and we each rated our picks based on capacity, comfort, ease of use, portability, and value. The bags below are our favorites.

Best Overall

Baggu nylon crescent bag.

• Capacity 5 /5
• Ease of Use 5 /5
• Value 4.8 /5

It’s extremely versatile and comfortable to wear.

Some may not think it’s the most stylish bag.

There are many reasons Baggu’s Medium Nylon Crescent Bag made the top spot on our list, but the biggest reason is its versatility. We have used this crossbody for everything from weekend trips and amusement park days to running errands and commuting. Beyond that, we can’t get over just how comfy it is to wear. The strap is pretty wide for a crossbody, which helps distribute the bag’s weight on our shoulder — plus the strap is adjustable, allowing the wearer to position it however they feel most comfortable. It’s also ultra-spacious, machine-washable, easy to pack into larger luggage , and significantly more durable than it initially feels. 

Inside its roomy main compartment, there are two pockets to neatly store smaller items like keys, cosmetics, cards, and cash. The top zipper is impressively smooth and we’ve never experienced it catching or snagging on anything in the several months we’ve been using it. It has quickly become our everyday bag, and it’s even unisex and available in a wide range of colorways, including hot pink, brown, a cloud print, and more. 

The Details: 8 x 13.75 x 4 inches | Nylon 

Hammitt Stadium-Approved Clear Bag

• Capacity 3 /5

It’s an elevated version of a classic transparent bag.

It may be too small if you aren’t using it to fit stadium guidelines.

We originally bought the Hammit Tony SML to take to concerts (yep — it’s stadium-approved), but its cute embellishments and versatile size have kept us reaching for it again and again over the last few months. We’ve brought it to sporting events, the beach, and overnight trips, and each time we were impressed by just how much the bag can hold for its size. We’ve stuffed it with our phone, earpods, makeup, and even a Kindle Oasis, and it remained lightweight each time. Its wide, adjustable strap feels comfortable even on bare skin, and metal studs provide a unique coolness. You can grab it in eight clear styles with colored leather accents, and there are even more non-clear hues.

The Details: 8 x 2 x 7.5 inches | Clear TPU with leather accents

Best Leather

Quince leather foldover clutch.

It’s stylish, organized, and can be worn in two different ways.

Though the exterior slip pocket is meant for a phone, it will be a very tight squeeze.

This sleek, slightly asymmetrical clutch has made it onto plenty of our trips over the past several months, both near and far. Shoppers can choose to carry it in its original clutch form or they can attach the included strap to transform it into an everyday crossbody bag. We love that it has two separate zippered compartments large enough to fit bulkier items, while an exterior slip compartment and various interior pockets make organization a breeze. The gorgeous Italian pebble leather feels soft and luxe, and the gold hardware is ultra eye-catching. You can find this bag in dusk blue, cappuccino, merlot, and black.

The Details: 7.5 x 2 x 10 inches | Italian leather, microfiber suede

Travel + Leisure / Joy Kim

Best Anti-theft

Sherpani esprit at.

Hackers and thieves are no match for this sleek sling bag.

It may feel slightly inconvenient for left-handed travelers.

Sling bags are made for travel, and one of our all-time favorites is Sherpani’s Esprit AT. We’ve taken it on everything from weeks-long international trips to weekend getaways and it comes in handy every time thanks to anti-theft features including slash-resistant mesh, a cut-proof strap, locking zippers, and a chair lock loop. It even boasts RFID protection to prevent hackers from stealing your personal information. In addition to those safety features, the sling bag also has a total of seven pockets ranging from zippered exterior pockets to fleece-lined interior slip pockets, as well as an adjustable strap and key leash. The bag is large enough to fit a 10-inch tablet, yet compact enough to count as a personal item on planes. 

The Details: 11 x 18 x 5 inches | 13 ounces | Nylon

Best Water-repellent

Lululemon all night festival bag.

It’s versatile and stylish enough to use every day — plus its sleek nylon repels water.

The magnetic closures may affect some phones and other devices.

We originally bought this bag to use on a weeklong trip out west, but we loved it so much, it has since become our everyday purse. It’s spacious, comfortable to carry, and easy to use thanks to its size and adjustable shoulder strap. It’s packed with both interior and exterior pockets as well as zipper and magnetic closures to keep everything inside secure. A wide opening in the main compartment even makes seeing and grabbing your items simple. We can’t get enough of the water-repellent nylon, which is helpful while at the pool or exploring new destinations in the rain. Perhaps best of all, though, is this bag is as stylish as it is functional — so you can pair it with any outfit and take it virtually anywhere.  

The Details: 7.9 x 3.9 x 8.3 inches | Nylon, polyester

Most Comfortable

Kavu rope bag sling pack.

After years of wear, it still never cuts into our shoulders — and it fits so much stuff.

The fabric fastener closure may not stay shut as well with repeated use.

This bag has been basically everywhere with us over the last few years: major vacations, road trips, flights, the mall, the park, and beyond. That’s partially because it’s so comfy to carry (the strap feels soft and broken-in on the first wear), but also because it fits so much inside. Designed with two vertical zip compartments and two smaller pockets, we felt like we had enough space for all our essentials and more — in fact, we used this while traveling with toddlers and were able to stow several of their items, too. The cotton canvas fabric feels soft against our back and shoulders and it appears to be high quality. In other words, we have a feeling this bag will withstand years of travel. 

The Details: 20 x 11 x 5 inches | 12 ounces | Cotton canvas

Travel + Leisure / Kathryn Standing

Most Versatile

Senreve belt bag.

• Value 4.5 /5

It can be worn three ways and it’s durable enough to take anywhere.

It’s pretty pricey for a belt bag.

We’ve carried this belt bag across our bodies, around our waist like a true fanny pack, and even as a clutch — and we’ve loved it every time. Whether traveling, hitting the gym, or heading to dinner with friends, the Senreve Belt Bag never feels out of place. It’s strappy and stylish like a purse, but it fits a bit more securely, like a fanny pack or sling bag. The microsuede interior feels luxurious and the magnetic flap closure offers a sense of security without adding bulk or taking away from the bag’s sharp appearance. There are only two pockets inside, but we felt that was plenty for the size, especially considering the spacious main compartment. It’s also scratch-, stain-, and water-resistant, so we feel comfortable getting a little rough with it, even in a lighter color. This bag comes in six different textures and colors ranging from Chablis to merlot.

The Details: 8 x 5 x 2 inches | 14.24 ounces | Leather, suede

Travel + Leisure / Morgan Ashley Parker

Best Organization

Baggallini everywhere bagg.

• Capacity 4 /5

It’s packed with pockets.

The spacious main compartment can feel like a bit of a black hole.

This is the type of bag that can hold “everything but the kitchen sink,” but it’s still technically a crossbody, so it’s truly the best of both worlds. It has pockets on just about every side, both internally and externally, and the main compartment is large enough to fit a small laptop or tablet, plus more. The strap is adjustable, the fabric is water-resistant, and the top zips closed to keep your belongings safe. It even comes with a removable RFID wristlet to keep your most important documents safe, or to use when you don’t need to carry a larger bag. Grab the crossbody in one of ten colors and prints such as dark cherry or gray camo — or even a black-and-beige, faux-shearling-lined option.

The Details: 11 x 9 x 5 inches | 12 ounces

Tumi Persia Crossbody

It’s stylish as can be and it’s small enough to take anywhere.

The strap is not detachable.

If you’re into bags that are so compact they’re downright cute, you’ll love the Persia Crossbody by Tumi. It’s slim, sleek, and perfect for traveling with just the essentials. We love flying with it because it’s small enough to fit into a larger personal item as needed, but leaves the essentials close at hand mid-flight. And though it’s one of the smallest crossbodies on our list, it actually has an impressive number of pockets, so it’s still able to fit your keys, phone, wallet, AirPods, Kindle, makeup, and even snacks with room to spare. It even has a key leash; three card slots; and a wide, adjustable strap for added convenience. If you prefer to personalize the bag, you can do so with the monogramming feature.   

The Details: 7.5 x 5.3 x 2.0 inches | 9.6 ounces | Nylon

Best Colors

Lo & sons pearl.

Lo and Sons

• Capacity 2 /5

Between its several available colors and three different leather options, it comes in a total of 21 styles.

It’s best for those who travel with just a few small items.

We’ve been using this purse for more than four years and it’s still finding ways to impress us. It’s not overly spacious, but it’s large enough to fit a few essential items and it’s the ideal size for trips ranging from international journeys to weekend getaways. Designed with one main compartment, two separate zip compartments, and a handful of other interior zip and slip pockets, you won’t find a crossbody of this size with better organization features. The detachable strap and touchably smooth leather are testaments to the bag’s high-quality construction, but our favorite thing about it might be the available colors: there are 21 color and leather options ranging from navy Saffiano leather to cognac cactus leather.

The Details: 7.75 x 9.5 x 3 inches | 14.4 ounces | Leather

Best Designer

Bottega veneta loop camera bag.

Bottega Veneta

It’s roomier than it looks — and because it's Bottega Veneta, you know it's going to last.

It’s the most expensive item on our list by far.

Bottega Veneta’s chic little Small Loop Camera Bag may have snagged our best designer spot, but after using it for the past year, we think it’s the best bag for city exploration, too. We’ve used it in London for a weeklong trip, toted it around the towns of Spain, and have taken it with us pretty much everywhere in New York City. Despite its compact size and single compartment, it’s spacious enough to fit plenty of items like a small wallet, sunglasses, a phone, keys, cosmetics, and more. The woven leather design and gold hardware only up the luxurious feel, while an unstructured strap feels soft on the shoulder. We love this bag in classic black, but it’s also available in white, pink, and navy. 

The Details: 6.1 x 8.7 x 3.5 inches | Lambskin leather

Kavu Sydney Satchel

It’s well-made, reasonably priced, and packed with pockets.

It’s not particularly fancy or fashion-forward.

The Kavu Sydney Satchel may be our value pick, but don’t let that deter you — there’s not much the bag can’t do. We’ve spent the last four or five years taking it pretty much everywhere, including various national parks, multi-week Europe trips, and nights out with friends. Because it’s made of extra-durable cotton, it holds up against unfavorable weather and rough travel. It’s on the larger side, so it’ll fit plenty of items including clothing, but it’s also rather slim, so it makes a great non-bulky travel bag. It’s the pockets, though, that keep us coming back to this crossbody: the oversized front pocket holds larger items like wallets, tablets, and other devices, while the main compartment boasts several smaller interior pockets for things like cards and cosmetics. To top it all off, the Sydney comes in 26 fun prints and colors.  

The Details: 15 x 13 x 1.5 inches | 12 ounces | Cotton canvas

Best for Parents

Canvelle sling bag.

It’s the most stylish sling bag we’ve ever seen, and it has space for both parents' items and their kids' stuff.

It’s a little pricey for a sling bag.

This is the daily bag we’ve been using for the past few years to carry our stuff and our kids’ stuff — without sacrificing style. While it’s not quite the size of a full-fledged baby bag, it does have the space for a change of clothes, some snacks, a full-size wallet, sunglasses, sunscreen, and other everyday essentials. Because it has a wide, super comfy strap and boasts high-end construction, it makes an excellent personal item when flying. It even has a cushioned back panel, a water-resistant lining, water-resistant back pockets, and a key clip. After using it for a couple of years, we think it feels like an oversized belt bag that can be worn across the body. 

The Details: 17 x 11 x 5 inches | 9.6 ounces | Poly canvas

Other Crossbodies We Liked

A few other crossbody bags almost made our list, but were ultimately cut due to minor issues we experienced while using them.

Athleta All About Crossbody : This crossbody is quite durable and comfy, and we like it enough that we’ve used it pretty consistently over the last few months. It’s just a bit too small to use as a travel bag or even as a commuter bag. 

Lo & Sons Waverley 2 : This bag is made for travel and it’s come along with us everywhere from Cancun to Paris. It’s super slim yet packed with pockets, so it’s a packing dream, but we noticed that after a few years of use, there’s some discoloration on the leather.

Lug Coupe XL Convertible Crossbody Bag : We appreciated that the Lug Coupe XL Convertible Crossbody Bag is somewhat more stylish than the average belt bag or fanny pack and it has a sufficient number of pockets. Still, we feel it’s a little pricey for a small polyester bag — plus the strap closure seems strange for this type of bag.

For this roundup, the Travel + Leisure team gave feedback about their favorite crossbody bags for travel that they already own. We asked each participant to rate their crossbody in categories including capacity, comfort, portability, ease of use, and value. Then, as a team, we pared down the list based on those ratings and our own research. Our team members have taken these crossbody bags on trips of various lengths and have owned them anywhere between a few months and several years.

Tips For Buying a Crossbody Bag

Make sure it fits your essentials.

It can be tempting to go for the most visually appealing crossbody bag you can find, but keep in mind crossbodies are small by nature and if you can’t fit all your daily items inside, you’ll just end up frustrated on your travels. You may even find yourself wanting to buy a new bag once you arrive at your destination. That said, it’s wise to prioritize size over everything else when shopping for a crossbody.

Look for padded, adjustable straps

Crossbody straps are often thinner than those on totes and backpacks, so if your bag is stuffed to the brim, that thin strap may dig into your shoulder. To avoid discomfort in your shoulder or any body part the bag may repeatedly rub against, consider crossbodies with padded, adjustable straps. 

Prioritize built-in organization and safety features

Depending on what you plan on traveling with, it’s a good idea to shop for crossbodies that have plenty of pockets as well as safety features such as zip tops or both zips and snaps for double protection. Multiple pockets mean there’s a spot for everything, making it easier to locate things inside the purse. Meanwhile, safety features like locking zippers, slash-resistant straps, and RFID-blocking technology help prevent pickpockets and hackers from getting their hands on your most precious items.

Standard crossbodies can be worn over the shoulder or, as the name suggests, across the body. More specific crossbodies like belt bags and sling bags can be worn across the chest or back or even around the waist — fanny pack-style.

When worn correctly, it’s harder for crossbodies to slip off your shoulder or be stolen than totes and handbags. Crossbodies also allow shoppers to go hands-free, which is helpful on challenging hikes, cycling adventures, and when there’s other luggage to carry.

Typically, airlines only allow travelers to bring two items into the cabin with them: a carry-on — which is usually stowed in the overhead bins — and a smaller personal item that must fit under the seat in front of you. Most crossbody bags are small enough to be considered a personal item (18 x 14 x 8 inches) and some larger ones count as carry-ons (22 x 14 x 9 inches). But if you’re hoping to bring a crossbody into the cabin in addition to another personal item and carry-on, TSA will likely ask you to pack your crossbody into another piece of luggage or leave it at the airport altogether. Something smaller and more compact, like a phone purse , might work better since it can be stashed in a carry-on or personal item easily if necessary.

A newer style from Cuyana is its Double Moon saddle bag. Made of Italian leather, this is an ideal bag for vacation: smart, stylish, and spacious enough to store everything you need while exploring a new city center.

Best sustainable crossbody

This everyday crossbody has been tested to hold up to 50 pounds—and while you're unlikely to ever fill it with that much weight, it's a comfort to know the strap is durable enough to fit all of your essentials plus a little extra. The bag features a zipper closure to keep your items secure and interior slip pockets for cards or your phone. What we love most: As with everything Rothy's, it's sustainably made and machine washable.

Best crush-proof bag

This crush-proof canister-style crossbody is meant to protect your essentials—like a favorite pair of sunglasses, a tube of hand sanitizer, or a fragile film camera you love to travel with—in a lightweight, streamlined design. The water-resistant interior will also keep everything dry, just in case. What we love most, though, is the chic, retro, monogrammable style—nobody will ever believe it's practical, too.

Best for hiking

Whether you're hiking , biking, or heading out for a game of pickleball, this convenient and compact water bottle holder saves you the hassle of lugging around a heavy, full-size bag. My favorite feature is the insulated and water-resistant interior, but it also comes with multiple pockets, a detachable shoulder strap, and a drawstring closure—a nice touch when you're on the move. It's available in more than a dozen colors and fun patterns.

Best for holding your phone

If you're looking for something that holds your ID, phone, and not much else, say for runs, hikes, or walking around a cruise ship, turn to this slim crossbody from Béis. It's available in the brand's signature beige and black.

Best for parents

MZ Wallace designs some of our top editor-recommended sling bags and duffels . We equally love this lightweight, diamond-quilted crossbody bag that's ideal for busy parents or travelers on the move who need something reliable.

You can learn more about how we chose these styles and what to consider as you shop at the end of this article, but first, here's everything you need to know about the best crossbody bags for travel.

Best Travel Backpacks | Best Luggage | Best Carry-On Luggage | Best Underseat Luggage | Best Tote Bags | Best Weekender Bags | Best Duffel Bags | Best Fanny Packs | Best Packing Cubes | Best Travel Gear

This fan-favorite belt bag has a loyal following of both men and women (including several GH staffers!) thanks to its comfortable fit, lightweight materials and spacious interior — all for a reasonable price. The nylon fabric is water-resistant, while the strap is fully adjustable so you can get a close fit around your torso (or waist if you prefer to wear it as a fanny pack).

Just note that unlike some crossbody bags that sit at the hip, this one lies flat against your torso, so it's not quite as easy to access the contents. Though its smaller 1L version is more popular, we think this larger size is great for travel because it can hold more while you're on the go.

Dimensions: 8.3" x 2.2" x 5.7" | Colors: Over 15 options

Despite its low cost, this bag wowed our experts and consumer testers with its comfort, style and spaciousness. In fact, it can even hold a water bottle along with a phone, wallet, keys and other essentials — all with room to spare.

One tester told us, "I love how lightweight it is and how much I can fit inside it!" Beyond that, the curved shape helps it feel comfortable at your side, even when you're walking for miles. Though its materials aren't quite as luxe as pricier bags, it still looks sleek and neutral enough to wear with a variety of outfits.

Dimensions: 11" x 6.7" x 3.9" | Colors: 7 options

Though the style looks and feels substantial, it's s urprisingly lightweight thanks to its performance fabrics that also happen to be water-repellent. Each bag features a quilted design and is easily packable so it doesn't take up valuable space in your suitcase.

The bag is on the larger size for a crossbody with one big main compartment, plus a small zippered pocket in the front so you can quickly find your essentials. It's also worth noting that the adjustable strap is longer than some other crossbodies, meaning it can also be carried as a low-hanging shoulder bag.

Dimensions: 12" x 122" x 4" | Colors: 7 options

Sling bags are ideal for anyone who wants the functionality of a backpack with the wearability of a crossbody bag. This one in particular is made with smart travel features, including RFID protection and an extra strap to stop pickpocketing.

It also has plenty of compartments, including ones on the back (facing your body) and an easily accessible pocket in the front. One GH staffer that swears by this bag saying, "It's super comfortable and feels secure to wear while in big cities or crowded areas."

Dimensions: 7" x 12" x 2.5" | Colors: 10 options

For those who prefer leather bags over ones with synthetic performance fabrics, this fashion-forward pick is great for a more elevated luxury look, especially when you're dressed to impress on vacation.

While most stylish leather crossbodies have sky-high designer price tags, this one is on the more affordable end. Worn by celebrities like Serena Williams and Kristen Bell, it's not as lightweight as other travel crossbodies, but our testers say it's not too heavy, either. It has two zippered pockets, each with organizational compartments inside. It's also available in smaller sizes at lower costs.

Dimensions: 10.25" x 7.25" x 4" | Colors: 9 options

If safety is a big concern for your trip, consider a bag that has smart features to keep your belongings protected. This one in particular is equipped with five standout anti-theft features , including zippers that clip closed to prevent pickpocketing, slash-resistant fabric, slash-resistant straps, RFID-blocking pockets and a strap clip that lets you secure it to a chair when you're dining.

Travelon makes a variety of anti-theft crossbody bags , but this one is Amazon's Choice with nearly 10,000 reviews and an average 4.6-star rating. It has a slim design with interior pockets to carry essentials like your passport, phone and wallet, though it doesn't hold quite as much as other styles.

Dimensions: 8.5" x 8.5" x 2" | Colors: 15 options

If you'll be traveling in wet conditions — including going underwater — consider a waterproof pouch that you can wear as a crossbody. This one even has a waterproof zipper and is designed to keep your contents dry ; you can even carry your phone and money into a pool while wearing it! A clear front screen allows you to use a touch-screen phone without taking it out. Plus, the crossbody strap can adjust to be worn as as a belt bag.

Dimensions: 8.58" x 4.92" x 1.77" | Colors: 2 options

If you prefer a smaller crossbody but worry that it's not big enough, consider this unique style from Athleta that has add-on compartments in the strap.

The main pouch is a foam-like material with a water-repellent finish and it lies flat against the body. The strap contains pouches designed to hold sunglasses and AirPods. As an added bonus, the strap is removable and can be attached onto other bags, while the pouch can be used as an organizer inside larger purses.

Dimensions: Not listed | Colors: 2 options

For those that always carry around a water bottle, this sporty sling bag has a hidden bottle pouch that you can tuck away whenever you don't need it.

Besides its two zippered compartments, it also has a microfiber-lined pocket in the front for your cell phone or sunglasses. Plus, there's a small zippered compartment in the back in case you need your phone or other essentials kept safe. It's not super spacious, but it has card organizers inside a zippered pocket in case you just want to bring a credit card and ID without a full wallet.

Dimensions: 6.7" x 8.2" x 2.7" | Colors: 3 options

Like a modern-day messenger, this style has a wide opening so you can easily sift through everything you packed inside. Once it's zippered shut, the top folds over and secures with a magnet. (Just note that Lululemon warns the magnet can interfere with certain electronic devices and bank cards.)

One GH staffer said she uses it every day and noted that the flap "feels secure while commuting or traveling and allows for a quick retrieval for items inside." Like other Lululemon bags , it has a lightweight and water-resistant performance fabric.

Dimensions: 7.9" x 3.9" x 8.3" | Colors: 3 options

Dange Dover Landon Neoprene Carryall Bag (Extra Small)

Available in five sizes, this style's largest options make perfect weekender bags while the smaller ones are more ideal as crossbody purses. This extra-small size still has a five-liter capacity, making it spacious enough to carry on-the-go essentials, even holding a small tablet or notebook.

We especially love this one's organizational features: inside the main zippered compartment are three pockets and a key leash, while the outside has a phone sleeve for easy access (though keep in mind: It's not zippered, so it's less secure). We also love its soft neoprene fabric and wide straps to support a heavier load.

Dimensions: 9" x 4.75" x 6.25" | Colors: 9 options

MZ Wallace Crossbody Belt Bag

When fashion is the first and foremost priority, consider a splurge-worthy style like this quilted belt bag. Despite its large size, it's still fairly lightweight thanks to its nylon material. It's also functional for travel with two zippered compartments and built-in pockets for organization.

We love its versatility thanks to its three detachable straps: Two wide ones for your waist or across the body and one chain strap to dress it up. Online reviewers call it "perfect for international travel," with one saying she found it especially useful on a trip to London and Paris.

Dimensions: 10" x 8.5" x 2" | Colors: 4 options

Bandolier Crossbody Bag

For a simple, chic and timeless style, this small crossbody is described as a "sleek look with a ton of functionality packed in" by one GH analyst who personally uses it. For starters, the adjustable strap can be swapped for other straps from the brand , plus the bag can expand a bit to pack in more when you need it. The flap secures with a magnet (there's no zipper) and it's made with real pebbled leather for an elegant look that can be dressed up.

Dimensions: 8" x 6" x 3" | Colors: 3 options

Madewell The Medium Transport Tote

Combining the capacity of a tote with the convenient strap of a crossbody, Madewell's bag is a tester favorite thanks to its supple leather and spacious interior.

A GH analyst that carries this bag while traveling said it's especially useful if you're going to be shopping so you don't have to carry around extra bags as you explore new cities. It's also ideal if you need to carry a bulky load, like an umbrella, water bottle and layers of clothing, but be aware that there's no zippered closure for protection.

Dimensions: 12.25" x 11" x 5.5" | Colors: 2 options

Coach Willow Bucket Bag

If you're willing to invest in a well-made crossbody, this luxury bag from Coach looks stylish and uses high-end construction. One GH staffer that recommended this style said, "I own a variety of Coach bags and they continue to stay in great condition," adding that the Coach Outlet is a great option for more affordable versions.

She likes this bag in particular because of how roomy it is, calling it "just the right size." Just note that it has multiple sections, some of which are unzippered, making contents less secure while traveling.

Dimensions: 9.25" x 8.75" x 4.25" | Color: Black

How we chose the best crossbody travel bags

The experts in the Good Housekeeping Institute Textiles Lab are passionate about finding the best products at the crossroads of fashion and function, constantly testing to find apparel and accessories that perform well, feel (and look) great and last for years to come.

To find the best crossbody bags for travel, we considered our staff's personal favorites from the dozens of styles that we've tested in our Lab and personally tried out in real life. We also asked other Good Housekeeping editors and analysts to weigh in with their recommendations, plus we performed market research using our product expertise to find new and popular styles from brands we know and love.

How to shop for travel-friendly crossbody bags

The one thing all crossbody bags have in common is that they're worn across your body. Other than that, here's what to consider when choosing the best crossbody bag for your next getaway:

• Size: Smaller dimensions typically mean the bag is more totable, but will hold less. Alternatively, larger bags may fit more inside but can be cumbersome to wear, depending on your type of travel. Besides the dimensions, also consider the capacity: 1-2 liters will be smaller, while 5 liters will be more spacious yet still comfortable to wear.
• Compartments and pockets : Some crossbody bags have one main compartment, while others have several compartments to help you stay organized. Also check for pockets inside the compartments, including pouches to hold your phone, keys and cards for easy access.
• Closures: Most crossbody bags for travel have zippers to keep everything safe and secure inside. However, some have magnet closures and others have no closures at all. Consider how secure you need your belongings to be and whether you'll be at risk for things falling out or being pickpocketed.
• Materials: Many styles are made of synthetic performance fabrics (like nylon and polyester) because they're lightweight and water-resistant. If you prefer a more luxurious bag, opt for leather (or even faux leather). Also keep in mind that bags with metal hardware will be heavier to carry around.
• Adjustability: To ensure your crossbody bag will fit comfortably around your torso, check for an adjustable strap so you can find the right fit. Some crossbody bags are also convertible, meaning you can change the straps or change how you wear them on your body.
• Packability: If you'll be packing your crossbody bag in your suitcase, consider opting for a lighter and thinner style instead of one that's more structured. If you do prefer a structured bag for style, consider wearing while en route to your destination or filling it with smaller items (like socks and underwear) in the suitcase so you don't waste valuable packing space.
• Safety features: Certain trips require you to pay closer attention to the risk of people that prey on tourists. In these cases, look for anti-theft features like secure zippers, straps that can attach onto your seat and RFID-blocking technology.
• Appearance: Last, but certainly not least, it's okay to choose a travel bag based on how it looks without sacrificing other important features. Consider what you'll be doing and wearing throughout your trip. Some of our recommendations are especially good at transitioning from daytime exploring to nighttime dining while matching a wide range of outfits.

The 15 Best Crossbody Bags That Make Traveling a Breeze

Hands-free is the way to go

Finding the perfect crossbody is not always an easy task, so we called in a travel expert: Camiel Irving, general manager of Uber Mobility in the United States and Canada. According to Irving, one of the most important things to consider is the bag’s size. “I try to travel light, so the best crossbody is big enough to carry all of my essentials (phone, passport, lip color, hand sanitizer), but small enough to not weigh me down,” she says. “I opt for versatile colors and textures, with a strap that can be worn a few ways, so that the same bag can take me from a client meeting to dinner with friends.”

Aside from size and versatility, when shopping for a travel-ready bag, it’s important to pay attention to interior and exterior features. (Personally, I’m a sucker for some zip pockets.) Finally, you want to look for a bag that is extremely secure with zip-top or button-flap closure. Sorry, pickpockets!

To make your adventures a little easier, have a look at the 15 best crossbody bags to make for easy, breezy traveling . Once you find your forever style, it’s a game changer.

The A.P.C. Betty is my personal favorite. It holds all my essentials and never feels too heavy, even when I’m walking around a new city for hours on end. I have owned this bag for over six years now, and the stiff leather barely shows any sign of wear or tear. And it’s even compact enough to throw into my personal item on a flight, so I don’t have to worry about extra baggage.

Materials: Leather

Dimensions: 8" W x 7" L x 2.4" D

Colors: Brown, black

If I were to go the designer logo route, I would most definitely choose Gucci’s messenger shape for the ’70s feel of the heritage G logo. The durable canvas is also ideal for travel, making cleaning and touch-ups easy. The two pockets will keep your belongings safe and secure. It’s also the ideal accessory for a day of sightseeing, especially if styled with a cotton button-down, a pair of faded jeans, and Birkenstock slides.

Materials: Canvas, leather

Dimensions: 7.9" H x 10" W x 2.4" D

Colors: Beige and ebony GG Supreme canvas

Cuyana excels at creating leather goods with purpose. The Double Loop bag is made from Italian leather—certified by the Leather Working Group—and produced in a woman-owned factory in Turkey, which has been in operation since the 15th century. The brand’s minimal designs, like this crossbody, are always in my suitcase because they’re guaranteed to work with any outfit I wear.

Dimensions: 8" H x 9.5" W x 5.5" D

Colors: Dark olive, black, cappuccino, ecru, and more

I like traveling with nylon bags since they don’t feel too precious. Prada’s version is a classic, reimagined in its Re-Nylon, which is produced from recycled, purified plastic materials. It has plenty of organizational pockets for all my necessities, too, so I am fully prepared for a full day of wandering.

Materials: 100% recycled nylon

Dimensions: 9.4" H x 11.6" W x 3.5" D

Colors: Black, desert beige

Madewell makes affordable bags from luxe Italian leather that wear quite well over time and are usually under $150. This compact bag’s extended strap is extra long and has loads of notches for additional adjustability.

I’d take this medium crossbody with me on a weekend excursion when I know I’ll be doing a lot of walking. It will also look equally great at the peak of summer with a white summer dress or this fall with a chunky sweater and vintage jeans.

Dimensions: 5.5" H x 8" W x 2" D

Colors: True black, harvest moon

Slow fashion is key to Il Bisonte’s work. The brand’s leather products are made by hand in Tuscany, Italy, by skilled artisans who use vegetable-tanned cowhide in an effort to produce leather more sustainably. This minimalist Salina crossbody looks like a vintage bag I’d stumble upon in a Parisian flea market. And the retro design isn’t clunky, making it ideal for a day of gallery hopping.

Materials: Cowhide leather

Dimensions: 9.5" H x 10" W x 3.5" D

Colors: Avorio, caramel, nero

Loewe’s Gate Dual Mini is a no-brainer. It’s stylish and compact, with a jacquard canvas strap that is thick, soft, and won’t rub on the shoulder. It’s also available in a bevy of rich colorways, so there is something for everyone. I love the olive green paired with a white tee, black jeans, and blue button-down.

Materials: Leather, cotton/polyester strap

Dimensions: 5.1" H x 8.3" W x 3.5" D

Colors: Green, tan, beige, peach, and more

Longchamp’s Le Foulonné bag has a top zip closure, so belongings won’t spill out while you’re zipping through security. The fabric lining inside also makes for easy cleaning in case of spillage—so there’s no need to worry about mini TSA-approved perfume bottles or a rogue uncapped lipstick making a mess.

Dimensions: 7.75" H x 7.75" W x 2" D

Colors: Caramel, turtle dove, black, and more

Chloé’s Marcie bag has been a permanent fixture in the brand’s collection, for good reason. It’s a roomy crossbody shape that fits all the essentials for travel: passport, wallet, phone, and keys. The stitching and simple hardware give it a slight bohemian-meets-equestrian feel. I’d take this one on my summer travels and pair it with airy, cotton dresses and lace-up sandals in the Mediterranean, or to the countryside in the fall while wearing a blazer, jeans, and cowboy boots.

Dimensions: 10.2" H x 11.4" W x 3.5" D

Colors: Tan, black, light gray

Bottega Veneta’s Intrecciato crossbody bag is a worthy investment. The thick, supple leather strap sits comfortably on the shoulder. But most importantly, it’s also removable, so the bag easily converts to a clutch

Dimensions: 5" H x 8.5" W x 2" D

Colors: Porridge-gold, white gold, teal washed silver, and more

Mother x Clare V. Le Fanny Pack

Both Mother and Clare V. have a knack for consistently creating simple, wearable products with a playful twist. So when they joined forces, we knew it was going to be good. This fanny pack can also be worn as a crossbody, giving you on-the-go versatility.

Materials: Nappetto leather

Colors: Breton stripe

The Row Small Slouchy Banana Bag

The Row makes a bag that’s a personal favorite of Irving’s. She tells us, “I love [this bag] because it sits securely in the front, is easy to access, and the relaxed leather adds some intrigue to any outfit.”

Materials: Leather, suede

Dimensions: 4.75" x 13.75" x 7"

Colors: Black

Tumi Langley Crossbody

It’s only natural that Tumi, purveyor of luxury travel products, would have a crossbody perfect for all types of adventures. Featuring ample pockets (including zip pockets and card slots), this bag primes you for peak organization.

Materials: Nylon

Dimensions: 5.0" x 8.0" x 2.5"

Colors: Black/gold, black/gunmetal

Iro Arc Baby Chain Bag

If you want something a little edgier, Iro’s silver chain hardware makes a statement. Carry it as a small shoulder bag or as a crossbody—either works.

Materials: Leather, cotton

Dimensions: 6.1" H x 2.4" W x 8.3" L

AllSaints Ezra Crossbody Bag

Comprised of (mostly) recycled materials, AllSaints produces a leopard-print bag that can also be worn as a clutch. Credit card slots replace the need of a cardholder, so you can travel with less.

Materials: Recycled polyester, cotton, leather

Dimensions: 5.1" H x 7.9" W x 1.2" D

Colors: Leopard brown, black

What to look for in crossbody bags for travel

The best crossbody bags will keep your belongings secure, feel comfortable along your trap muscles and be able to organize everything in your bag effectively.

Secure closer : A nonnegotiable for all crossbody bags (especially when traveling) is a secure closure. The means you should look out for a zipper finish or a snapped flap overlay to avoid any type of tourist theft.

Adjustable straps : Other notable features to look for in the best crossbody bags are adjustable straps for a custom fit. As a 5'3" traveler, I prefer my crossbody bags to fit snug along my ribs as if it's a second skin, but everyone's preference and size is different. The straps should be soft to the touch for comfort or wide if you're carrying something heavy so it distributes the weight of the bag over more space.

Extra storage: Lastly, it's all about organization! Card case inserts are super helpful so you can edit out an actual wallet, while key chain looks and phone pockets helps you organize your essentials easily.

Traveling often involves switching up your regular bags and purses to lightweight, safer, and more protective vessels to keep your most prized possessions safely by your side.

Whether you are worried about pickpockets, concerned about skimmers, or simply want to keep your bag by your side while also keeping your hands free to explore, a travel crossbody bag offers the perfect blend of practical safety features and stylish good looks on the go.

When you are out and about, being able to keep your hands free is an absolute game-changer. No more having to place your bag on the counter or the floor while you pay for your goods, or worrying about your backpack being attacked from behind. Crossbody bags are stylish, comfortable to wear, and help to distribute the bulk evenly without weighing down 1 shoulder as a traditional tote bag can.

As an experienced traveler, one of the greatest benefits of using a crossbody bag is the feeling of security it affords you . You can swing the bag around to the front of your torso, making it very hard for would-be criminals to access or snatch along the way.

These types of bags are also lightweight and easy to access, making it super-convenient to reach inside and grab your wallet, room key, phone, and any other essentials while you are on the move. Perfect for days out in busy cities, they are also just as useful on your morning commute, while still being stylish enough to wear with your best dress on a night out.

If you find the right crossbody bag, you will quickly appreciate just how well it strikes a perfect balance between style and functionality.

Bottom Line: Whether you choose a super-fancy designer version or a cheap one from the internet, crossbody bags can see you through from day to night, without ever having to compromise on style or practicality.

Things To Consider With Crossbody Bags

Your crossbody bag needs to be big enough to hold everything you need to take out with you, without being so big and bulky that it weighs you down.

Because you want to be able to wear your bag slung low across your hips, crossbody bags are generally smaller and more compact than tote bags , backpacks , shoulder bags, or even sling backpacks . With this in mind, keep a lookout for a crossbody that is compact but still has enough space to hold your tablet or e-reader , your wallet , cell phone, cards, passport, and any other day-to-day essentials.

Most crossbody bags that are designed with travel in mind are often made of nylon. This is because nylon is strong, durable, and easy to keep clean. Really well-designed bags often have lighter-colored fabric on the inside, so it is easier to see what’s inside the bag when you are fishing around for your purse, wallet, keys, or cell phone.

Many of the very best crossbody bags have extra components hidden behind the stylish exterior. These include slash-proof mesh hidden in the fabric or steel ribbons running through the straps and handles. This makes them slash-resistant and less attractive to thieves, and therefore more likely to last for a great many adventures than regular cotton, canvas, or even leather bags.

If you are planning on carrying your crossbody around with you for longer periods of time, it will need to be super-comfy. As it is worn across 1 shoulder, the strap must be padded and soft enough to rest without digging in, no matter how heavy your bag gets, and the buckle should remain far away from your skin.

Hot Tip: It is also helpful if the bag has some padding to keep your belongings from bouncing off your hips as you walk.

Because crossbody bags work better when they maintain a slim silhouette, you may expect them to have fewer compartments than your traditional backpack or tote bag. Expect to find at least 1 main internal compartment for keeping the majority of your belongings in, including your tablet or e-reader, and then additional sections for pens, phones, and other essentials.

You will most likely be able to utilize space on the outside of your crossbody bag by way of extra zippered pockets on the front of the back of the bag, as well as useful little side pockets for carrying water bottles and other essentials.

Many of the excellent crossbody bags in this list feature so much more than just good-sized compartments and great looks. Anti-theft mechanisms are an integral part of the success of travel bags, and the space where you keep your most prized possessions should be the safest of all.

You’ll want to look for lockable zippers, slash-proof material strengthened with mesh, straps with stainless steel inner ribbons, and RFID technology to protect your cards and passports from scans and skimmers. All of these will help to protect your gear from would-be thieves and criminals.

When you are out and about, it can be easy to get caught out by the weather. Water-resistant crossbody bags offer some protection against damp conditions and the occasional light splash, but they are not fully waterproof.

Hot Tip: If you feel you need a bag that offers complete protection against heavy rain or the risk of submergence in water, look into waterproof bags designed for outdoor activities instead.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can you wear a crossbody bag as a shoulder bag.

There is no reason why you physically couldn’t switch a crossbody bag or purse to your shoulder and wear it as a shoulder bag. However, by doing this, you would be negating the benefits of having it secure around your body, avoid it slipping from your shoulder, and positioning it easily to your front in crowded places.

Why are crossbody bags for travel so popular?

There are 2 main reasons crossbody bags are so popular for travel. The first is that they look fashionable and can look and function just as well as the handbag or purse you use at home. The second reason is the security features most travel crossbody bags have, such as slash-resistant straps and sides, RFID-blocking material, and lockable compartments.

What length should a crossbody bag be?

The length of your crossbody bag really depends on the length of your torso. A crossbody bag strap should come from your shoulder and sit comfortably on your hip on the other side.

Are crossbody bags good for your back?

A crossbody bag will never be as good for your back compared to a backpack that allows equal weight distribution across both shoulders. However, crossbody bags and purses are usually small for everyday essentials, so they won’t be too heavy and affect your back too much.

What is the best purse to travel with?

The OGIO Women’s Brooklyn Tablet Purse is a unique-looking crossbody bag that is practical, stylish, and designed with the needs of the traveler in mind. Featuring 2 large main compartments and a front flap that is designed to hide a zippered pocket in plain sight, your belongings will stay well-protected while still being close at hand.

It includes two removable straps to easily take you from day to night and has plenty of pockets to keep your things organized. The best part?

Another great feature is the double set of straps. Depending on your desired look and plans, you can switch this bag from a crossbody to a shoulder bag.

If you prefer to travel light, this crossbody bag is right up your alley. It may be small, but it securely and stylishly holds your travel essentials like your phone, wallet, keys, and passport. And because your phone is likely what you reach for most, you can keep it handy with an easy-to-reach pocket. Reviewers say the quality of the leather is especially good, making the bag look and feel extra luxurious.

Speaking from personal experience, JW PEI bags are crazy good quality for their price point. The brand's Mini Flap Crossbody is a good option if you're looking for a trendier piece to take with you on your travels. Available in 19 different colorways—including this dark brown and fun shades like metallic silver and bright pink—there's a shade for every style preference. While this bag doesn't have a zip closure, it does close with a magnetic button and has an interior zipper pocket for your smaller personal items.

Sometimes, simple is better, as this Coach crossbody bag makes clear. With a sleek, classic design, this bag suits just about everyone's style and will go with nearly everything in your closet. It's not too big or too small, so you can easily fit your travel essentials comfortably. Plus, the zip top closure and zipper pockets keep them secure.

A sure way to ruin a trip is by packing a bag that's too heavy to carry around all day—but you won't have that problem with this bag. It's made from a material that's as light as air. It comes in two different sizes—this big belt bag for every day or the mini size for quick trips—and 20 colors to match perfectly with your coordinating Calpak luggage.

Tumi is a cult-favorite luggage brand for a reason. The brand only uses the highest quality materials in their designs, and functionality is a main concern for every piece. This crossbody has ample pockets—enough for your keys, wallet, phone, and credit cards to have their own space. It's made of durable nylon and has shining golden hardware for an extra luxe touch.

Key Features of the Best Crossbody Bags for Travel

How it closes separates a good travel purse from a great one. It's the most important feature of a travel purse for Edwards, who says, "It needs to have easy access, but a secure closure so nothing falls out and people can't reach into it." A crossbody bag would ideally have a zip-top closure, but a flap works, too. Stay far away from anything that doesn't close fully or only uses magnetic closures, or you'll risk easy access to pickpockets.

This may be up to personal preference, but size matters when it comes to the best travel purses. Howards says, "It can’t be too small—and must hold her wallet, passport, glasses, and lip balm—but it isn’t a carryall." With a tote bag, you'll be too tempted to throw in non-essentials, resulting in an aching shoulder at the end of the day. Instead, a crossbody bag is the "Goldilocks" of travel purses—they're small enough to carry your essentials but not too big to be burdensome.

Sure, a red bag may look especially trendy right now, but it's actually smarter to bring something less noticeable as your travel purse. "I would avoid choosing bright colors, because you don't want the location of your money, bank cards, or phone to stand out," Saward advises. Instead, the travel pro says she always goes with a sleek black bag—that way, her necessities are kept more under-the-radar, not to mention a black bag goes with every look seamlessly.

How to Style the Best Crossbody Bags for Travel

A structured crossbody bag is ideal for keeping casual looks elevated.

What makes the best crossbody bags the best is their versatile nature, which allows them to pair alongside whatever's on your itinerary. From the plane to nice dinners and everything in between, a travel crossbody should be able to do everything. Turn to a structured crossbody for an elevated exploring outfit to keep a casual look luxe. Make sure you choose lightweight pieces to layer with so your crossbody can comfortably lay.

Take it from me that keeping your essentials (passport, wallet, headphones, etc.) in a backpack or shoulder bag is not a good idea when traveling. Keep your things within easy reach while being able to go hands-free with a sling crossbody. A leather option also adds a touch more elevation to your summer airport outfits .

What Is A Crossbody Bag?

There are many different types of bags around, but a crossbody bag is handy for when you’re out and about. The great thing about this bag is that it can also be used in everyday life, not just when you’re traipsing the globe.

You really need to know what this type of bag is before we go any further, though. And to answer that question, a crossbody bag is a usually smaller purse that goes across your body and has a long strap, with the bag sitting on your hip at one side.

These straps on a crossbody bag can usually be adjusted, so you can have it higher up your body or lower down, depending on your height and how comfortable you are wearing it.

What Are The Benefits Of Using Crossbody Bags For Travel?

Security is the main subject here because your bag is very unlikely to be snatched from your back or shoulder when it is sat on your hip and secured to your body by a long strap. Aside from this, your hands are free, so you don’t have to feel burdened when trying to explore a new place .

If you’re traveling with your hands free, that also means that you can carry a larger carry-on cabin bag, or pull your suitcase behind you, without feeling weighed down.

As you can see, many crossbody bag choices are on the market. Think  about your needs and budget, which will help you find the best crossbody bag for travel.

How To Choose The Perfect Crossbody Bag

Of course, you could just go out and grab any over-the-shoulder bag that looks good… but we suggest considering these factors before you buy one:

You need a crossbody travel purse that is lightweight. That way, it will feel like nothing when it is on your body empty, and you can put much more inside it as a result. A bag that feels like thin air isn’t going to be that secure because you won’t feel if someone is tugging on it, perhaps trying to open the zipper.

Strap Length

You need a bag with an adjustable strap, so you can move it however you feel comfortable, including if you are wearing a thick or thin coat or if you want it to sit higher on your hips for added security. Most of the best crossbody purses for travel do have this adjustable feature, but you need to think about it.

The waterproof material is always best. That way, you have a genuinely flexible option if you want to use it out and about, rather than just for when you’re traveling. Fabric bags are acceptable for summer use, but if you’re going to use them again, perhaps when it is raining, you might find that your belongings become a little soggy.

This is a bag you probably already have without realizing it! There is a huge range of crossbody bags on the market. For this reason, costs aren’t exceptionally high unless you want a serious brand name.

Anti-Theft/Security Features

Only the best crossbody bags for travel have advantageous features to deter thieves or make it very hard for someone to get into your bag without you realizing it. This includes a different shape to the bag, where it folds down and zips, hidden internal pockets, clips for keys, and anti-slash materials (yes, people use knives to cut bags off!)

Travelers Swear by These Lightweight Crossbody Bags for Staying Organized, and Prices Start at $10

Including sling styles, belt bags, and more.

Packing for an upcoming vacation typically means picking out the best travel-ready clothing that offers comfort and versatility, making room in your luggage for your most supportive walking shoes , and adding in other accessories. But just as important as planning out your outfits is having a reliable bag that can take you from the airport to the hotel and beyond. Crossbody bags are often a go-to, particularly for active vacations, since they keep your valuables close and let you comfortably move around — and we found so many options hiding for under $20.

With prices so low, now is an ideal time to add some new crossbody styles to your closet. Walmart’s handbag section includes sling bags with multiple pockets to keep your belongings organized and easily accessible, along with belt bags that can be worn a variety of ways and are comparable to versions that are triple the price. Keep reading for more lightweight and compact yet spacious bags worth grabbing starting at just $10. 

No Boundaries Hands-Free Sling Bag

Buy on Walmart

A crossbody bag like this No Boundaries sling style lets you carry everything you need for the day, rather than a bulky bag that will weigh you down or cause shoulder pain. It features two exterior pockets in addition to the main compartment, so you can easily access items like a small wallet or your cell phone. The adjustable strap helps you find your ideal fit, and shoppers shared that the hands-free style is perfect for travel, hiking, and more. 

Woornigojin Crossbody Belt Bag

Shoppers say this $10 belt bag is so similar to a popular style that’s more than triple the price, so you can grab it in multiple colors. It can be worn around your waist or across your chest thanks to an adjustable strap, and it’s waterproof to keep your valuables protected in any weather conditions. One reviewer called it perfect for vacation thanks to compartments that hold and organize cards, keys, lip balm, your phone, and more. 

Vbiger Crossbody Bag

For a more traditional crossbody bag , grab this one for just $13. It’s made with waterproof, lightweight material so it’s comfortable to carry around all day and has 10 different compartments for holding all of your essentials — including its main section that’s big enough to hold a tablet. One customer who has owned the durable bag for more than two years said it’s held up through rain, snow, and extreme heat, while another person noted that it’s very roomy.

Reebok Cosmos Crossbody Sling Bag

If you walk a lot, whether on vacation or when you’re local, consider this sling bag that’s made for active lifestyles. It has multiple pockets to hold small items and an adjustable strap that lets you use it as a crossbody over your chest or unzipped and worn with a thinner strap on each shoulder. One reviewer noted that it’s lightweight and great for travel, while another said that it has plenty of room despite its size.

Almusen Crossbody Bag

Make air travel easier with this bag that’s designed with pockets to help you quickly access your passport, tickets, phone, and more. The nylon fabric makes it completely waterproof, and one shopper said that the wide strap adds comfort for all-day use. They also highlighted that it’s roomy and can hold a lot, but it doesn’t feel huge or bulky. Grab it while it’s on sale for $14 in navy, black, red, or purple for $16.

Also notable is its harness feature that distributes weight and prevents you from suffering from any back or shoulder pain later on.

One shopper says: "The Cotopaxi was my real working bag for carrying 3-4 days' clothing & toiletries. I am impressed with the quality build, the cool appearance of the bag, the organized storage, the way the compartments hold their shape without using heavyweight material. The interior feels well enough secure for my purposes but also has easy access smaller compartment for a light jacket."

One shopper raves: "I wanted a small backpack that could still carry all my stuff, but also look stylish and sleek. This was it. The Dakota and small is the perfect backpack. Big enough to carry all my stuff as a mom of three while traveling but small enough to not feel too heavy. The material is soft but durable. I’m definitely a forever fan now!"

One shopper says: "This backpack does everything I need. Keeps things really organized, looks great, comfortable to carry heavy stuff... I really like how it collapses to a smaller profile once it’s empty for both easy storage, and a slimmer profile for a day to day pack."

Weight: 4.12 lbs

Tumi Celina Backpack

Tumi is one of the most trusted names in luggage, so you can be sure this bag is of high quality. It has lots of pockets and compartments, but the best feature has to be the Tumi Tracer, which will allow you to track and locate your bag should you misplace it.

One shopper raves : "So light empty and so roomy. Lots of pockets and fantastic construction. A quality backpack that will last for years and years, worth every penny!"

Dimensions : 16.0" x 10.6" x 6.5"

Shinola Detroit The Runwell Backpack

If you're looking to invest in a bag that can really go the distance, it's gotta be high-quality leather. You can trust that this will hold up, and best of all, it'll only look better as it wears in during all your trips to come.

One shopper says: "I purchased this Runwell backpack in the summer of ‘19 to use as my work bag and waited a few years of daily use to review. I can truly say it’s almost perfect; it looks small on me but that’s my fault for not reading measurements. It easily fits my laptop, plenty of cables, paperwork, gym clothes, a shower bag, and many more random things. The pockets in the interior are great; it’s very functional. Although I do clean/condition it every few months, it’s developed a wonderful patina."

Dimensions: 17" H x 10.38" W x 6" D

Weight: 3.9 lbs

Beis Travel The Expandable Backpack

Weight: 1.67 lbs

Material: 100% recycled poly

Troubadour Aero Backpack

Even better: It doubles as a duffle carrier for days when you'd prefer carrying your things as a crossbody.

One shopper says: "Just perfect. Enough pockets in the right place without being annoying or irritating and it looks sooooo good."

Dimensions: 13.4" x 20" x 7.9"

Weight: 2.75 lbs

Material: Recycled polyester fabric, recycled polyester lining, vegan leather trim

Away The Everywhere Zip Backpack

Known for the suitcases everybody can't get enough of, Away also offers a range of backpacks that feature the same intelligent designs and user-friendly features. The aptly-named Everywhere knapsack is made with water-resistant nylon and features a wrap-around zipper for extra access in the main compartment.

One shopper writes : "It may be a little much to say this backpack changed my life, but it changed my life.. It's comfortable. It's SO well designed, with a logical place for everything. It holds a LOT. It's stylish and stays upright when you put it down. Most importantly (and the reason I bought it in the first place), I'm no longer sore after walking around and carrying my stuff all day. I may never go back to wearing a shoulder bag again. Worth every penny."

Dimensions : 12" x 5.9" x 17.7"

Weight : 2.45 lbs

Material : Nylon and leather

Paravel Fold-Up Backpack

One shopper says: "I couldn’t believe that a roomy backpack could zip up very easily into a pouch! It is very roomy with several zip up compartments for extra storage. It looks very nice. I am going to Europe and was searching for a lightweight backpack. This is perfect!"

Weight: .63 lbs

Material: Nylon from recycled water bottles

A carry-on travel backpack is a great in-flight companion because it's conveniently designed to be super spacious and a hands-free way to carry your belongings.

When shopping for the best option, it's important to choose a bag that can fit underneath the seat in front of you. While sizes vary depending on the airplane, most domestic airlines in the United States require a personal item to be somewhere around 17 inches tall, 13 inches wide, and 8 inches long.

Equally as important: Look for a backpack with functional features, such as organization pockets, full zip openings, a laptop sleeve, and adjustable straps for a comfortable fit.

Understand [ edit ]

Khimki is part of the Moscow conurbation, on the banks of the Moscow channel and the Klyazma river, and one of the highest density rate in the region.

Before the city, there were several noble lands, which villages are still exist. During the late 19th century, the site of Khimki station became (and remains) the place of Muscovite dachas. Khimki was granted city status, and the Stariye Khimki development was completed. Since then, development programs have turned the countryside into an important city in the region.

Today, Khimki is not only a residential district, but also an important economic and trade center of the Moscow conurbation.

Districts [ edit ]

• Stariye Khimki . The main part of the city with Stalinist architecture.
• Khimki forest area . The quite and remarkable side with classic Russian country houses and dachas.
• Noviye Khimki . The residential district. Not the destination to explore.

Get in [ edit ]

Since Khimki is close to Moscow, has very high population density and a lot of development projects, the city is under blockade by Moscow to protect the capital's transport infrastructure from the flood of people and vehicles migrating in and out every day. There are no ways of comfortable and fast way to get the city.

By car [ edit ]

Khimki is accessible by car via Leningradsky Hwy from Moscow. The part of this highway from Moscow till end of Khimki city limits is the busiest road in Russia.

By public transport [ edit ]

By suburban train from Leningradskii station to Khimki station or Levoberegnaya platform (a district on the left bank of Moscow channel).

A lot of buses and marshrutkas run from Rechnoy Vokzal metro station, at the north end of the Green Line. You can also reach Khimki by marshrutka, bus or trolleybus from Planernaya metro station.

Get around [ edit ]

The most comfortable way to explore the city is to bike or take a car .
