Collection: Crossbody Bags

More than you'd expect. The Sidekick is 23cm wide x 17.5cm tall x 8cm deep—it fits up to A5-sized items, an iPad Mini, and a 600ml drink bottle, with a back phone pocket that holds up to an iPhone 17 Pro Max with most cases. Deceptively roomy for its size.

The Slouchy Crescent is 30cm wide x 18cm tall x 6cm deep, with an elasticated coffee cup pocket, a back zipped phone pocket, and 3 internal pockets. It's designed for your everyday essentials—phone, wallet, keys, sunglasses, A5 items and a small bottle. Surprisingly roomy for its relaxed silhouette.

The Tryhard Bag is 20cm wide x 27cm tall x 13cm deep with 3 deceptively spacious compartments—it fits an iPad, A5 notebook, wallet, sunglasses, a 1L bottle lying down, and has a large external phone pocket. Looks like an evening bag, carries a full day's worth.

The Multi-Wear Crossbody Bag is 30cm wide x 18cm tall x 6cm deep. It fits a 1L Montii bottle standing up, plus your phone, wallet, keys and sunglasses. The hidden back zipped pocket is ideal for your phone or cards when travelling.

It's all in the strap. A shoulder bag has a shorter strap designed to sit on one shoulder, while a crossbody bag has a longer strap worn diagonally across your body so the bag rests on your opposite hip. Crossbody bags distribute weight more evenly, keep your hands free, and stay more securely in place—making them a good choice for busy days, travel, and anywhere you're on the move. All Bon Maxie crossbody bags come with a fully adjustable, size-inclusive strap so you can wear it exactly as you like.

Each bag is built for a different carry vibe. The Sidekick is the structured everyday classic—it fits up to A5 and a 600ml bottle, with an easy-access back phone pocket and plenty of internal pockets. The Tryhard adds a top handle and 3 compartments for days when you need a little more space—it transitions easily from work to an evening out. The Slouchy Crescent is the relaxed, soft leather option—same practical internals, less structured exterior. The Multi-Wear Crossbody is versatile—it wears as a crossbody, on your back or over the shoulder, making it the go-to for walks, travel or anything hands-free.

To clean, wipe gently with a soft damp cloth and always spot test first, especially on lighter colours. We recommend treating it regularly with a Collonil leather cleaner, waterproofer or conditioner to keep it looking its best for the long haul.

For everyday use, look for a medium-sized crossbody with an easy-access external phone pocket, an adjustable strap, and a secure zip closure. Bon Maxie crossbody bags are designed specifically for everyday carry—with straps that suit different body shapes and internal organisation to keep everything in place.

A crossbody bag should sit on your opposite hip—not too high, not swinging around your knees. The strap should sit comfortably across your chest without digging in. Adjust so the bag rests at hip height for everyday wear, or higher and tighter to the body when travelling in busy areas.

Crossbody bags are one of the best choices for travel because they sit against your body and are much harder to snatch than a shoulder bag. For extra security, choose a zip closure and keep the bag on your front in busy areas. Bon Maxie travel crossbody bags are designed with security in mind.
