Customer Reviews Kipling Syro Crossbody Bag

Great light-weight bag that's neither too big nor too small. Has loads of pockets (9 total including main compartment) that's perfect for someone who likes to keep things organized in their purse. Main compartment has a divider and big enough to hold my LV full sized wallet, small umbrella, sunglasses and a packet of hand wipes. There are 4 more pockets inside the bag and one of them is zippered. There are also two outside pockets on each side of the bag. One of them is zippered and the other is velcro closure. They're perfect for things that need easy access such as my smart phone, small mirror, a pen and lip gloss. Although it's a cross body bag, the straps can be adjusted short enough to use as a shoulder bag and has a drop of 15 inches when used as such so there's lots of clearance on top of the bag. I'm 5'5" with a short torso so when I use it as a shoulder bag, the bottom ends up at mid-hip for me. The straps are wide and don't hurt my shoulder even when I pack the bag with lots of things. Overall, it's a great everyday bag that's easy to clean and maintain without having to worry about it.

Best bag I ever had including all the very expensive ones. Roomy, compact, sensible sections. Fabric soft and sturdy. Good looking and just right.

Kipling bags aren't the most stylish, but they're lightweight, organized, and cuter than some of the more utilitarian bags out there. Plus, the colors! I saw this color on an Alvar XS (which I already know is too small for my needs) at a local store and rushed home to see what Zappos had in this color. Love it. Same color as my first-ever-paid-for-by-me car! The one thing I don't like is the full-width divider thingy in the main section. It's just a floppy piece of fabric sewn vertically that divides the main compartment in two. I'm going to remove it by cutting carefully around the sewn edges, because a larger main compartment is more useful to me than one with such a silly divider.

I love this bag! It's a perfect size for travel or every day. It holds everything I need, including a small camera.

I ordered this bag along with a Mosey bag. I need compartments and storage for travel but my primary need was a lightweight bag for everyday use. This Kipling Syro Crossbody bag fit the bill perfectly! The size, fabric, and the adjustable strap were all features I needed in a bag. The Mosey bag was nice but it was noticeably heavier than this style of Kipling and therefore, I returned it. I have used this Kipling bag for several weeks with no shoulder/neck discomfort and it carries everything I need for everyday use. I also have several Baggallini bags which I also like but I never did find just the right size for everyday use. I am very happy with this purchase and I just love this purse! And I also love Zappos speedy delivery and one-of-a-kind customer service! Such a pleasure to order from Zappos -- thank you, Zappos, and thank you Kipling for making stylish, truly lightweight bags!

Was looking for a light bag that would also accommodate my iPad mini when needed. This bag does that and has numerous pockets so I can easily find things.

I was looking for an everyday bag that can fit everything that I need and this is it! Very good price for the quality and brand. Not so big and not so small either. I put all my little make up and hair pins in the very front pocket. Second pocket outside is where I put little emergencies stuffs like medicine, wipes, and etc. Inside has two divisions, one zipper pocket and two small pocket. ph and there is one more outside pocket at the back. The bag is very roomy and I just love it!!

What I like about Kipling bags is that they are lightweight, comfortable, colorful and not leather. And what I like about the Syro bag is all of that plus the fact that it is a great size (not too big and not too small), and has a pocket for everything I happen to carry around. It makes me feel organized and ready to face the day!

In my quest to find the perfect bag, "by George, I think I've got it!" It's lightweight, weatherproof, room for large wallet, double eyeglass case, zippered pockets for train pass, phone, keys...all those things we can't do without. All in all, a perfect 10!

Really great bag! Enough, but not too many, pockets. I love the silver color. It goes with everything so I won't have to change bags to go with different outfits, something I don't enjoy! Although I just might order it in a different color just in case.

Bought the white color, it looks exactly the same as in the photo. A bit of shiny white rather than solid white. Very roomy though it looks small. I can put in wallet, car keys, house keys, a scarf, a book, a small coin pouch and badge with lanyard. Perfect for every day. Highly recommend it!

Very comfortable and good looking bag. I just wish it were a bit bigger in order to be able to fit a bottle of water and an extra shirt when I am out and about all day. Zappos' service has been outstanding, as always.

I love this bag as it's lightweight and has so many compartments in it. It's not too big and not too small. Very comfortable as a shoulder bag.

Perfect lightweight bag for travel esp with outside pockets.

I LOVE this bag. I try to carry a purse that isn't too large and this is the perfect size as it still holds everything I need with room to spare for seasonal things like sunglasses. I love all the organization and pockets. My huge iPhone fits in the front flap pocket and the shoulder strap is adjustable as I don't care to wear it cross body unless I'm traveling. I also love that it's easy to clean and lighter than a big leather purse. I also think Kipling's material is better than other similar bags (like Baggalini). Overall I love this bag and would purchase in other colors.

This is a great bag. I use it as my everyday purse because my more expensive leather ones are just too heavy. Perfect size. Nice organization.

Roomy and tidy are the two best adjectives for this bag. It is also good looking! It took me a week or so to move things around so that everything is handy without distorting the neatness of the bag's shape. A bonus is that the strap is not slippery like those of a similar brand whose strap slides annoyingly off the shoulder. Thanks to a friend for recommending this brand and style!

I love this bag. It serves every purpose for which I ordered it.It is light, very well made and strong, the perfect cross-body size, has a lot of compartments and holds an incredible amount of stuff without looking bulky on the outside The color is great and I would definitely want to buy one in other colors too.

I love this bag. I am debating whether to get it in black as well. It is not bulky, but yet it fits everything very easily with all the compartments.

Another thoughtfully designed Kipling product. Perfect size, great for travel. Front and back compartments hold passports, cell phone, kindle reader, maps, small camera, etc, with room to spare. The black fabric looks nice enough for dressier events. It is super light weight and resists rain. The strap is soft, comfortable and fully adjustable. Although the zippers are plastic they don't look it - they have a clean matte gray look and operate smoothly. After several weeks of heavy wear, the bag itself appears to be indestructible, but the strap is fraying a bit. I was able to trim it up with scissors.

I love this bag! It has a thick strap that is long enough to toss over my shoulder. It is very roomy with several pockets for organizing stuff. I especially like the pocket in the back for valuables. It is great for traveling!

This is a great bag, it looks nice, is really roomy, well constructed, and has strong zippers. It looks much better than I imagined. The strap is wide enough to not cut into my shoulder. I hope it lasts a long time. I cannot find any roomy, attractive waist packs anymore, but this is an excellent alternative. It is also lightweight, unlike leather.

I just got my bright pink bag and love it! Perfect size! Pockets for everything! Including the most important thing...my Kindle! Perfect length, hits my hips. I'm 5'7". Using as crossbody. Looked at thousands of bags and choose the Syro. Best decision made. Hands down, The Perfect Crossbody bag out there!

I love this purse, lightweight, so many pockets for everything I need . . . I have 13 of these in all different colors . . . the only problem is I was waiting for it to come out in RED!!! Is there any chance of that or is the Syro now discontinued??

Great bag if you don't want a heavy leather bag, and a lot of compartments. Zippers and nylon are super quality.
