Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Waxed Canvas Crossbody

I love this crossbody bag because I wanted to put my phone in a side pocket but was nervous that in this style it could fall out because the pocket wasn't deep enough. So I took it to a local leather/shoe repair guy where he put in a cool brass snap and voila problem solved!

Nice bag and yes it has marks on it and it will age nicely because it is the nature of the materials used. Two things, One, hope the hooks hold up because they are not really that sturdy on the strap that link onto the D rings on the body of the bag. Two, I have the same complaint about the front pocket everyone else has because it gapes, tho not that shallow but it needs stitching to secure it to the bag to create a small pocket for a cell phone. I do like that there is a strap on the inside of the bag to attach your key ring. It is a good size and I will enjoy using it for 3 seasons of the year for my daily go to bag to hold my stuff!

Love this bag! It's the perfect size and is durable.

I love waxed canvas, I love the rustic style - I love this bag!

Love this bag! It's roomy, strong and hold lots of items. I use it daily as my purse.

Love this bag. Perfect. Size to carry on an airplane. Holds iPad, sunglasses, compact umbrella, passport, etc.

Great crossbody purse! Leather and canvas are exactly as shown in the picture. Quality product and the size is nice, too.

Perfect size and perfect color. We'll made purse.

Just received my new bag and I couldn't be more pleased. All my usual 'purse essentials' fit nicely inside. I appreciate the interior clip for attaching 2 fobs and the zippered compartment was ample space for 'just in case' items. The shoulder strap was easily adjustable, but feels very secure. Bravo, LLBean

I love the purse. It is roomy and well-constructed.

Love the combination of the leather and waxed cotton. Some other reviews mentioned the size of the outer pocket; that pocket ends where the leather begins, and is plenty large enough to hold an iPhone 14 with room to spare. It's plenty large enough for things you need to have at hand. The inside is simple, but roomy! There's a key clip, and a zipper interior pocket. Love how adjustable the strap is. Great quality, traditional design. I love it!

My twenty-year-old daughter chose this purse to take on vacation to eastern Europe, and said it worked great. She liked how much it could hold and was okay with the shallow front pocket and used it to hold smaller beverage bottles. She did not notice that the handle was attached with clips, so attached large paper clips to deter potential theft. The handle and bottom are sturdy, thicker leather, (no quick slicing through them) and can easily be wiped clean if needed.

I feel a bit like Goldilocks as I've been looking for the right sized black bag for some time. One's too big, one's too small - but this one is 'just right'!

I really like this bag--so much so it is my second consecutive purse purchase. The first bag had a slightly different configuration which I liked a bit better. I like the outside pocket on this one, which my first bag didn't have, but I miss the 2nd inside pocket it did. Also, It is deeper than my first and I kinda preferred a little less depth to get lost in. Nevertheless, it is definitely my new winter bag--it's great.

I love this bag! It is the perfect size to hold everything I need.it is stylish and sturdy!

Great looking bag. Just the right size. Very durable. I wish outer pocket was deeper instead of half the depth of the bag, but other than that this bag is just right.

Best purse/bag ever. Wide strap means comfort on the shoulder, materials will last forever, design is simple and timeless, and there's plenty of inside room. Because of the way the bag is designed, it sits upright on its own, so no need to worry about items falling out of the front pocket when you set it down. It hugs my body just right when I wear it, so again nothing falls out. Others have complained about the front pocket, but it's perfect - easily fits my smartphone and keys with room to spare. Unless you're doing cartwheels you shouldn't have issues with things falling out of the pocket. Base is wide enough and opening large enough that I'm not battling to get things in or out, or to find them. All of these were issues I have had with other purses in the past. I'm really glad I finally found one that looks great, will last forever and is functional as well. Totally worth the price!

Great Purse! Looks good and fits all my stuff. Classier than most of my other purses, has good pockets inside.

This purchase was a gift. My daughter picked it out and sent the link. She was very happy with it and said it would work well for her as a professional and in daily use.

Perfect size for all the electronics you need when traveling. The design is stylish and functional.

Great size. I've been struggling with small crossbodies for too long. I really wanted a purse big enough to hold all my stuff. This one is perfect. I like my purse to hang at my hip. The handle on this purse is the perfect length.

Great bag! Very happy with purchase Plenty of room - love the color

I purchased the waxed canvas bag because the bag was a good size and the material would hold up in wet weather. I absolutely love the bag! The top zipper keeps contents dry and the key clip keeps keys from being "lost" in the bag. There is an interior zipped pocket as well as a satin lining. The details set this bag apart from less expensive ones. This is definitely worth the money!

This bag is an absolute dream. Sturdy, beautiful and user friendly. I think I finally found the perfect bag. An absolute work of beautiful design. Materials used in bag are very intoxicating. Heavy canvas, leather with brass accents. Well done!

The purse was exactly as pictured and described. It arrived in a timely manner. The only thing I would say that wasn't exactly perfect was the key chain that is sewn into the top zipper caused the zipper to not close smoothly sometimes. I cut the key chain out and the zipper opens and closes great. I use the purse every day. It's a great size: not too small and not too big.
