Soyater crossbody bag

This purse only arrived yesterday, and I'm already in love with it. (Proof: I've already ordered a second one in another color.) I was concerned that the smaller size might not be roomy enough, but I've NEVER been able to fit so much into a purse without the items being crowded or difficult to reach (see the photo). I have everything in there but the partridge in the pear tree! The "so many pockets" design is what does the trick. The strap can be worn shoulder or cross-body and is absolutely non-slip. The color is utterly lovely; I wanted something bright and cheerful for a pandemic summer, and it is almost a peacock blue. The nylon fabric is sturdy, and the zippers and stitching seem strong, but, quite honestly, for less than $20, if it holds up only through the spring and summer, I've gotten my money's worth out of it. A casual, not a dress purse, but simply excellent. If i have any complaint, it's that it doesn't come in enough colors. I'd have loved one in an ash rose or brown or charcoal, too.

Update after 1 year, Oct 2020: still love the utility of the purse. It's very light weight and great for organizing. The zippers still work great. I'm going to sew that slippery strap. The pins I've used to secure it are cute, but I never adjust the strap longer, so I'm going to commit to one length. I love the water bottle holders. It's good for traveling, as good as my Travelon and lighter (except that's theft resistant, anti-cut).It's really reliable like sturdy outdoor gear.If you need a lightweight medium size organizer type purse, this is the one.Original review Oct 2019I *strongly* prefer leather purses for appearance, but they're too heavy.This purse is super functional. I can get a lot of stuff in there and it's very accessible inside. A lot of purses are so deep, it's hard to get to the bottom and find your stuff.I like the organization layout a lot, too.Also the purse doesn't have a dark interior, so I can see inside to get my stuff. Yes!!!!!!Zippers are working great.The strap is like seatbelt material. I like it that I can adjust the length very easily, but I don't like it that it keeps adjusting itself (slipping). So I'm going to use a cute pin to secure it.I have this loaded up with my stuff and it weighs the same as my *empty* leather purse with all the beautiful polished nickel hardware accents. This purse isn't beautiful like that one, but my shoulder is thanking me.

I wasn't sure about tit when I got it BUT this bag is wonderful! It's. just the right size for an casual everyday bag and it holds a lot. The color is just as pictured and quite lovely (I got the blue). Everything is easy to find and retrieve, not crowded, even fits my big LLBean wristlet, eye glasses, sun glasses and a small small hair brush in the main compartment, my smart phone fits nicely in the middle zipper compartment and I still have room for all those little incidentals (you know, small tape measure, pen, extra keys. Candy, lip blam etc). Elastic pockets on the ends are great for stashing your sun glasses when you go into a building so you can retrieve them easily when you leave. Very well organized. As far as water proof - yes it is. I got caught in the rain and everything in side the bag remained bone dry even though the outside was wet. I looked like a drowned poodle but my cell phone was dry as was all my other stuff. All this at a great price. Can't be beat. Highly recommended.

I love this purse! It is medium size. Not too big and not too small for me anyway. Has several pockets. Have not tried to put a water bottle in the side pockets but I do have glasses cleaner in one and hand sanitizer in the other. It is large enough for me to carry necessary items and all the other normal purse items. I even have a pocket that is not being used and if I needed to I have room to put a water bottle in the large pocket at the top.Just the right size for me. Will prob order a couple more in different colors.

Downsides: smaller than expected (ex. I thought u could fit a water bottle in the side pockets but they are small and tight I could only squeeze 7 pens in one-see pic)Also the metal plate on the front of mine is upside down..Upsides: the “sky blue” is actually a really pretty turquoise color in real life the pics do not reflect the actual color well. Great pockets/zipper sections- three zip front pockets, one zipper across the entire back and inside is open with a zip pocket and two slip in pockets. Overall I am very happy with the organization in this purse and even though it is smaller than expected, I can fit everything I wanted into it :) The wide strap is nice as well,it’s like a non rigid seatbelt material that should hold up well

I must say after pouring over all types of bags to find one suitable for an upcoming extended trip, I think I found it. Not too big, not too small, lots of zippered pockets. (I won't carry a bag that doesn't zip). I rely heavily on reviews to make my decisions and although I liked the color of the sky blue on my monitor, it did not present that color in reality (more of a turquoise/green). I chose to return it and reorder the same bag in a different color because I really liked the design of the bag. The return could not have been easier! I have now received the bag in Navy blue and so far can't be more pleased with it. It seems to be well made, very lightweight. It should function well for my needs. Thank you, Giselle.

This bag is made of tough material. I really feel like it will hold up to the test of time. It is very spacious and has a lot of pockets which I love. I find I can fit a nice sized book in the main pocket along with my large wallet and a few other knick knacks, a small water bottle in each size pocket and still have room in the front and back pockets for a few other small objects. The nice thing is that when you carry it around it doesn't feel like a large purse, but it still holds a lot of stuff. The cross body strap is a nice thick strap, and the material is smooth, so it isn't irritating to your skin. All in all a really nice bag.
