crossbody bags

Shoulder-strap pouches

Crossbody bags are purses or small bags worn with a long strap that crosses diagonally over the torso, positioning the bag at the opposite hip.

The design keeps hands free while distributing weight evenly: I switched to a crossbody bag for traveling.

They're popular for their practicality and security compared to shoulder bags that slip off easily.
