The plane ticket’s booked, the hotel reservations have been made, and the countdown for your big trip is officially on. But wait…you don’t have a decent travel bag that will hold all of your on-the-go essentials while being light enough for racking up thousands of steps in a foreign city!

Don’t fret, fellow globe-trotter. We’ve searched the dotcom depths to bring you 11 dependable and trendy crossbody bags that will be all too happy to serve as your loyal sidekick on travels. We have a feeling you’ll be tempted to buy multiple.

Crossbody Bag

Sometimes, a tiny, athletic crossbody bag just doesn’t cut it. Enter: this full-grain leather beauty, which merges practicality and chicness. Thanks to its multiple interior and exterior zip compartments, slip pockets, and adjustable straps, the bag is willing and able to haul all of your belongings—oversized tablet and notebook (for logging all your travel escapades, of course!) included. Not a fan of the pictured Tan Wash colorway? There are seven more where that came from.

Running Belt

Technically, this product is made for runners, as it’s the ideal way to store your bare basics (card, cash, ID, phone, etc.) and not much more. However, if those items are the only ones you take on your daily adventures in foreign cities anyways, this running belt is calling your name! It has an expandable, no-bounce pocket and can easily be worn around your waist or in crossbody fashion. Who knows, maybe it will inspire you to break into a run on the Champs-Élysées.

High Coast Crossbody

This bag is just as perfect for multi-hour treks through mountains as it is for leisurely strolls down city streets. It’s made from recycled materials, can be detached from its padded strap to serve as a lil’ pouch, has an interior key hook and mesh sleeves, and is water-resistant. At only 0.7 pounds, you just might forget this bag is even on you.

The Essential Sling Crossbody Bag

Perhaps you’re privy to the Baggu Crescent Bag TikTok obsession. For something a bit more elevated (reflected in a higher price tag, to be sure), go with this travel-friendly crossbody from Madewell. It’s 100-percent leather and can even be paired with the brand’s The Essential Zip Wallet. We love a color-coordinated moment!

All About Crossbody Belt Bag

This bag from Athleta has a streamlined design and is quite affordable—meaning you can spend more on gelato and fried seafood in paper cones (if you happen to find yourself in Southern Italy, that is). It’s crafted out of soft-to-the-touch recycled polyester, is water-repellent, and, in its clear colorway, complies with most stadium-slash-festival bag policies. In other words, it’s ideal for travel, yes, but also for life in general.

Neoprene Sling Bag

This travel bag is on the bigger side, making it perfect for people who treat stepping outside as a full-scale production. It’s got no shortage of zippered pockets, a nylon lining, and a weaved neoprene exterior that is bound to score you many a compliment from passersby. If you think that tan hue is too basic, consider getting the bag in a bright turquoise or electric pink. Being too bold, after all, is not a thing.

Everywhere Convertible Crossbody Bag

We know, we know: Lululemon is so commonplace now that it feels a bit tacky to even be mentioning it. Yet, the cult-favorite company couldn’t have gained such traction without having true cred. This particular bestseller has four connection points that allow you to wear and style it on your own terms; two timeless color choices; and multiple pockets for all your goodies. Word of caution, though—once you buy one item from the brand, you’ll quickly be tempted to buy ’em all.

Polo ID Calfskin Mini Saddle Bag

Ralph Lauren’s products don’t miss, and this classic saddle bag is no exception. Sure, it’s not chock-full of pockets and zippers and incognito compartments, but who can say no to all that sophistication? The cherry on top, if you ask us, is surely its gold-tone brass hardware.

Navigator Sling 6L

This bag does not mess around, and, if you’re a tech whiz, you should click “add to cart” on it right now. With a dedicated tablet-slash-gaming pocket, RFID-safe compartment for credit cards, bottle holder, and card pocket right on the shoulder strap, we’re tempted to ask, What doesn’t it have? If you plan on long commutes during your getaway, that’s one more reason to cop this multifunctional marvel.

Anti-Theft Heritage Crossbody

“Tourist robbed of all belongings, passport included, on busy street corner” is a headline you do not want to read about yourself. With this crossbody bag, you’ll never have to. It’s equipped with a five-point anti-theft security system that features slash-resistant mesh barriers, locking compartments, and a lock-down strap. As Dwight from The Office once said, “Identity theft is not a joke.” On that note, this bag has an RFID-blocking card pocket, which makes RFID-enabled devices resistant to unauthorized access. You’ll be sleeping like a baby with this purchase.

Men’s Anton Leather Sling Bag

If you’re in your splurging era, look no further than this impossibly luxe sling bag from Loewe. You’ll get all the subtle brand touches with the item, including an embossed logo on its body and an adjustable jacquard logo shoulder strap. It’s not replete with pockets and obviously doesn’t have an anti-theft security system like the aforementioned Travelon bag, but, let us tell you, this leather gem is a steal in and of itself.
