Crossbody and sling bags by Blackpack, from slim phone bags to the 9 L Flex Bag XL. Most models can also be worn on the waist or on the chest.
Crossbody, sling or shoulder bag?
A crossbody bag hangs on a long strap worn across the body, so it stays put and keeps your hands free. A sling bag is the same idea in a more compact shape, usually worn on the chest or the back. A shoulder bag hangs from one shoulder. Every bag in this section can be worn crossbody, and the strap adjusts so the bag sits on your hip, chest or back.
