How Do Nylon Crossbody Bags Compare to Leather Ones for Everyday Use?

Nylon crossbody bags are lighter than leather, wipe clean after rain or spills, and need almost no maintenance. The tradeoff is a bit less structure and formality in exchange for an easy, low-upkeep bag built for daily use.

Our nylon crossbody bags still hold their shape with structured paneling, minus the conditioning leather requires. Many customers keep one of each, reaching for whichever suits the day.
