The Big Skinny Expedition Crossbody Bag. Great for traveling!
The Expedition Crossbody bag can hold US Passports, smaller purses and checkbooks, 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 cross-body bag 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. *** Please note due to global supply issues both zippers and pulls may differ from the photos above.Features:
- 10”x10” (25.4 cm x 25.4 cm) gusseted storage area with interior zippered pocket
- 6” (15.24 cm) interior key lanyard with hook
- Exterior front zippered pocket
- Exterior rear magnetic clasped pocket
- 2 front gusseted pockets, 1 toggle, 1 zippered
- Strap adjustable from 30”(76.2 cm) to 50”(127 cm)
- dimensions: 10” wide x 10” tall (25.4 cm x 25.4 cm)

Great all around bag
May 9, 2022
This bag is a perfect travel companion. I appreciate the outside pockets for my glasses and phone as they stay secured and I'm not worried about losing them. It's plenty big enough for holding travel info, passport and wallets etc. I would definitely recommend this bag and if you ever have a color selection then I would buy another!
Pros
- Attractive and easy to wipe off
- Light weight
- Stays slim even with using outside pockets
- Durable
Cons
- The gold hardware & the strap is too slippery
- Needs a pen sleeve inside the bag
- A smaller zippered pocket for lipstick etc

Great Bag!
December 13, 2021
I like this bag very much - well made, and as usual, very light to carry. I just wish it was a smidge bigger...and Big Skinny has the best customer service in the world! I have already recommended this bag to several of my friends - as well as the extensive line of wallets.

Nice size
June 2, 2021
This purse is a nice size and has some nice pockets. I wish they had more of a selection of colors. It is functional and holds what I want it to. I don't really like the outside pocket with the twist closure. It sticks out too far.
Pros
- Lots of pockets outside, but only one inside.
Cons
- A bit slippery, both the purse and the strap. Strap will not stay at the length I want.

This bag is light and is very roomy. I carries all of my necessities without weighing a ton. I love big skinny. If you ever have an issue the customer service is amazing. This is a great company with great Products.
Pros
- Pockets on front, perfect for keys and cell phone. Also has a zipper pocket on the inside. Very roomy.
Cons
- The only CON for me.....and this is strictly personal preference, I wish the strap were not as wide....To me the strap is very "seatbelt-ish" but this is the style apparently as a lot of purses have this strap style. But this is definitely not something that would keep me from purchasing this in other colors if they came available.

I've had my Crossbody bag for about a month now and I really like how lightweight it is. I also like the two sections on the front : I put my glasses in the first one and my phone in the zippered one. The only thing missing is perhaps some slots for credit cards. Maybe when you revise this bag, you will include such an addition. LOVE YOUR PRODUCTS! I have your wallet and have given wallets as gifts to others who have also loved them.
Pros
- The fabric and the light weight make this bag so easy to carry..
Cons
- The only pro is no designated space for debit/credit cards. Also would be nice if you could take a step in the pass and insert a small mirror and a space for a comb..

Great purse
August 19, 2020
I like the purse, lots of pockets and compartments. My biggest complaint is the zipper. As stated in other reviews, it's big and doesn't zip easily.Looks nice, but isn't practical The key holder inside doesn't bother me that it's on the "wrong side" since my car is one that doesn't need the key, but I can easily grab it when needed. Can't wait for different colors.
Pros
- Light weight
- Lots of pockets
Cons
- Zipper

Just what I wanted

I don't like grey or gold, but the deep grey bag/ strap with matching gold hardware looks very pretty and elegant in real life. The material is soft to touch and flexible. It is much nicer than in the pictures.
Aside from the main bag area, there are 5 deep pockets! By deep, I mean the pockets reach down to the bottom of the bag.
The front has two tall pockets (one button closure, one zippered) that can easily fit a phone, small umbrella, kleenex, etc.
Still in front of the bag, but behind the two exterior pockets, is a large zippered pocket almost the entire size of the bag.
Inside the main zippered compartment, there is another zippered pocket that is almost the entire size of the bag.
In the back of the bag, there is an open pocket that is closed with a metal button clasp that also runs almost the entire size of the bag.
So although this bag is thin, it can hold a surprisingly amount of stuff. I could even fit in a thin letter size folder in the main compartment and close the zipper.
I don't use key fobs so I can't comment on the placement of the key attachment loop.
The strap easily adjusts from shoulder length to cross body length. I did find the adjustable strap to be very slippery and fine. After adjusting, it sometimes came undone, loosened and lengthened, so I had to re-adjust it to the shorter length for me.
This bag is washable, pretty, spacious, flexible and has lots of compartments. For $55, it's a steal. (I used to like expensive leather purses, but they're impossible to wash, expensive, and hard. I much prefer this.)

Pros

Cons
- Strap is a bit slippery and loosens on its own. I have to re-adjust the length periodically.

A crossbody purse I like

I really like the lite weight of this purse after all of my items are inside. Has plenty of room and ease of getting to what am looking for.

It is the right size, can carry iPad mini, phone, purse and so much more without the bag becoming bulky.

I’ve read a few reviews that mention, and I agree, that the key clip inside needs to be at the opening of the zipper instead of the other end. I, personally, would also prefer if the strap loops were on opposite sides of the bag so when I sling the bag back to sit on my butt it stays there instead of immediately slipping forward onto my hip again, but that’s bc I have a small kid that I carry on my hip and need the bag out of the way.
Other than “design issues”, I love this bag. I can fit a lot in without it being enormous. The fabric is nice and seems like it will hold up o a lot of abuse. The price point is great for the quality and usefulness.
