It’ll probably come as no surprise that you can wear this sling bag two different ways. It comes with an adjustable strap and detachable clip that transform it from a mini backpack to a crossbody, and vice versa. You can wear it on both the right and the left side of your body, too. When used as a crossbody, shoppers said “it fits very close to the body,” adding that the bag helps “reduce the risk of theft while traveling in touristy areas.” 

The bag’s overall construction and quality is “top tier,” per multiple reviewers, including one who found it to be “much better than go-to brands like Everlane and Madewell.” Made from 100 percent top-grain Italian leather, it’s soft, supple, and extremely lightweight, even when filled with important travel essentials. It weighs just 0.7 pounds when empty, but the sling bag is spacious despite its compact shape. In fact, another person added that this feature helps keep “travel lighter.”  

The flexibility of the leather means you can fit more inside. Reviewers and travelers alike say it has “plenty of room” and have found it big enough to hold cell phones, small water bottles, keys, wallets, journals, sunglasses, hand wipes, sanitizer, and makeup. The bag contains one main interior zip pocket, plus an inner card holder, and a roomy back slip pocket, to give you organizational variety. 

Whether you use it as a mini backpack, a stylish crossbody, or as your next onboard personal item, Quince’s Italian Leather Sling Pack is the twofer for you. Snag the piece that one fan called their “favorite daily bag” in one of three available colors, including cognac, mink, or black.
