Crossbody bag with wide stripe strap

15 replies

I know this is quite specific but it's my birthday next month and I am looking for present ideas for DH that will cheer me up as I'm sure we'll all still be stuck in the house in June 😭 I am looking for a leather crossbody bag with a wide strap. Maybe a stripe strap if possible. And any colour except black. Maybe a bright colour would be nice for summer. Any recommendations?
Budget probably up to £150.
Thanks

How big does it have to be? Apatchy have some gorgeous camera bags with wide straps. They are £65 and you can chose which strap you want.

Something like the osprey Hendrix? I don't think they make them anymore, I have been looking for something similar without success.

Crew do these bags. The also sell stripey straps so you can mix n match Grin joules might too ? Radley do one too ....

Thanks everyone. I like the Apatchy ones but I wonder if they will be too small. I'll measure it out later. I like the Osprey one too but couldn't find a seller online. Couldn't find the Crew ones.

I think they are a decent size. Not good for carting kids stuff around but for essentials they are decent. It’s on my list to get. There’s a 15% off code on their fb page too. Also check out Ollie & Nic their bags are nice Coach have some bits in the sale too

Fat Face have a small tan leather cross over bag with a striped strap - Serenity cross over bag. Only £29.50 in the sale so maybe not quite what you are after for a birthday treat!

The Radley medium size pockets cross body bags are great. Wide strap, hand close and flat to the body, lots of secure pockets, can be worn under a coat or jacket. Ideal for when you have several children and only two hands. www.radley.co.uk/handbags/cross-body-bags/shopby/pockets

Having had to look at their site to find a link, how are they still in business? Most their cross body bags fail to meet the brief, have skinny straps and are tiny.

This one is nice. I actually ordered it but it was too big for me. I can’t remember if the strap would go crossbody but you could buy another strap if needs be (apatchy or all about straps). The only thing is if you don’t like it I think you have to pay returns which is always annoying.

I love handbags 🤣

Martysmarvellousmeals · 02/05/2020 09:54

I had that Radley one on tan medium size, loved the wide strap, but the width was very shallow. Annoyingly the colour came off on the corners after only a few uses, took it back and got a refund......paid £49 from TKmaxx, but did see the same ones in lots of different colours both the small and medium in Boundry Mill.

I am really missing TKmaxx

Oh that Osprey one is lovely but really wanted a crossbody. Might need to get this anyway Blush
I agree about the Radley site. They are so awful.

Some handbags on Harvey Nic’s have 30% off at the moment. There are some Stella ones in the offer too
