Review: Looks even better in person - I don't know why I debated buying this for so long (several months). As soon as it arrived, I knew I made the right choice. Materials and quality overall are great. The zippers move smoothly and the pulls are nice and big. The interior size was what I needed, and the sewn in pocket in the large compartment is great for my wallet and keys. The strap extends long enough for me, a tall dude. And the smaller front pocket is perfect for my phone (quick access). Carries everything I need and still has room for more.
Review: UPDATE! Very excited to use this! - UPDATED REVIEW: see end of this one. I may have found the perfect sketchbook travel bag! I can fit a sketchbook, watercolors, pens, pencils, and a few other items in this awesome bag. Finally! I used to travel with ziplock bags and pencil cases, rubber bands, searching around in my carry on for the pen that rolls away in the airport. I’m so looking forward to traveling with this. It will fit in my carry on bag, I can grab it when I want to draw or paint whether I’m by the pool or on a plane, or wherever. ***So I got to take the bag on a 10 day cruise and really use it. I could not have been happier with it. Absolutely perfect! I’ll post a photo of what I carried in it but whether I was in our room, on a lounge chair by the pool or in an airport, I was able to get to what I wanted / needed to sketch or paint. Great size, great compartments, great price and 100% not dorky.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Very comfortable to wear for long periods of time
*by C***L on February 22, 2026*

The size, comfort and quality of this bag is superior to another crossbody bag that I purchased on Amazon. The strap is very long and adjustable. This is important if wearing with a heavy jacket in cold weather. I was able to sit through a concert with this comfortably sitting on my lap with the strap over my shoulder, knowing that my wallet and phone were safe and secure. Got caught in the rain and everything stayed dry. Note that there is no side net holder for a water bottle but the bag is large enough to sit one in the main compartment. There is one pocket on the inside and a vertical zip pocket on the front side.
