Cheshire Convertible Bag
 |  |  |
The Big Skinny Cheshire Convertible Bag. Great for traveling! Fun fact: Did you know our very own Leah McHugh is pictured in this image?? She also designed The Cheshire Convertible! Having traveled to many different places across the globe, she knew what design would best suit a world traveler.
The Cheshire Convertible bag can hold up to 4 US Passports, 20 credit/ID cards in this model plus your check book, your stack of foreign currency, cell phone, mini-camera, keys, lip gloss, hair elastics, and all the change that is fit to carry. Very scalable clutch that flexes to accommodate whatever you pack yet manages to stay sleek due to its super-thin nylon-microfiber nature. And light enough that even filled, it is easy to trek through the mountains of Europe and sail through the oceans of the South Pacific, knowing all your stuff is close at at hand. The top full zip also deters potential pickpockets.

This is the perfect bag, and I don't know what the other reviewers had problems with. There's no wasted space at the bottom (it's a half circle, and the inside matches the outside). Two pockets, one zippered-- slots for your cards and enough space to drop in your wallet and your keys.
There's even beltloops on one side so that if you did want to slide on a belt you could do that too. Perfect to transfer back and forth between larger purse or my carry-books-and-knitting-etc bag and my backpack for work... And to carry on its own for a run to the store or somewhere I don't want a big bag because the strap works like a mini cross-body-bag. My only problem is leaving it in the wrong place... and that my friend was handling it like she might try to swipe it.

ProsWorks as a wallet and a small cross-body bag just right for carrying exactly what I need.
ConsNone I have found.

I bought this for myself at Christmas when buying a wallet for my husband. I love it, it is very slim but wide enough to carry a few necessities, lipstick, inhaler, keys, money. the slots for cards and Ids is perfect and saves space. the strap is long enough to ware over my neck and across my chest, great for safety especially when traveling

Zipper broken. Disappointment.
December 10, 2017
So excited to have this bag! I'd waited for delivery for so long. I only used it one time, and the zipper broke. Also, the bag isn't large enough to carry what I need. I want to carry the flat charger in it, also (and would like it to be RFID, as I carry cards in it), but it's not large enough. Worried about reordering, as I've read that the newer models of this bag are more cheaply made. I waited a long time for shipment of this item in the beginning. So disappointed about the zipper. Buyer beware...

ProsEnables you to carry purse close to your body
ConsDefective zipper (only lasted through one use)
Too small
Not RFID for cards in it
Useless space at bottom (curved design with seam)

Too small
October 21, 2017
I bought it for travel. It is too small to hold much and because it is not RFID I put my wallet in there too.

We hope to come out with some larger crossbody styles soon- At your earliest convenience, please contact our customer service team at service@bigskinny.com or 617.500.6939 and they'll be happy to facilitate an exchange or refund for you.

Second purchase of the same item. Loved the first one. Disappointed about the second one.
July 9, 2017
I loved my first one that I purchased a little over a year ago, however the zipper broke off and I could not have it fixed. I ordered a second one since I loved the original so much but the quality of this second one is very poor and looks very cheap. I'm very upset to have spent my money on this.
Merchant Response:Oh no! Sounds like you got a dud-- We'll have a replacement sent out to you ASAP! Thank you for letting us know! Have a great day! BigSkinny

Nice design but....
May 6, 2017
This has a nice design which is why I purchased it but after getting it I found many flaws and sent it back. First was attaching the strap one clip would open also it would appear that it would have been about and inch or two too short at its longest length. I probably would have kept it and had a new strap sent but the last problem would have driven me nuts. The rounded bottom, inside the lining was bunch up which would not allow you to put anything in that space not even chapstick! That whole bottom curve was dead space. If these two things change I will try it again!
Merchant Response:Hi Sandra, Thank you for your honest feedback. We will look into altering the design of The Cheshire model. We hope to have a sleek, expandable version out soon! Have a wonderful day! BigSkinny

Cheaply made and waste of space
March 14, 2017
I just received this convertible bag and even though I read the other reviews I still wanted to give it a chance , seemed perfect and very thin ,
The bag is very thin and that is awesome but I'm not sure I'm liking it , it is wasted space at the bottom because of the curved shaped .
I would wish it shaped differently and had an outer pocket , that would make the perfect convertible bag .
I'm short so the strap is not a problem , but honesty I don't think it's worth $30
Still having second thoughts and thinking of returning it , haven't used it yet because it feels odd .
