Hudson Leather Crossbody

Love the Hudson Crossbody. Functions are perfect. Plenty of room inside. The auto close and latch are a great feature.

My only suggestion is to have specific compartments on the inside for pens, reading glasses, etc.

I use the Hudson Crossbody everyday. Best bag I have ever used.

Gorgeous, practical and very easy to use. There are just enough pockets pouches and storage options without being overwhelming. My favourites though are the super easy fidlock magnet closure, the back slip pocket and the strap which evenly distributes weight. The brown grizzly is easily the best color but I have it in black too for more formal occasions.

I own a shamefully large number of Waterfield bags (and loads of other designers as well), but this is by far my favorite as an everyday carry (EDC). The design is incredibly thoughtful and each tactile element is a delight to use. It took about a day to get used to sliding open the buckle, but after the short learning curve it is a quick and easy one-handed operation. The way it magnetically snaps back into place once let go of is an audible treat and so convenient. The brilliant buckle, combined with the perfectly calibrated magnets holding the top of the bag closed, strike an exquisite balance where: 1) with a mug of coffee in one hand I can still use my other hand to open it up, access the bag, and allow it to self-close back while 2) still being completely secure and airtight when closed. Nothing fiddly.

The bag is tiny, but I regularly put in it: 1) an iPad mini with smart cover and Apple Pencil in the dedicated internal sleeve, 2) an Ayn Thor or other retro gaming handheld, 3) a glasses case, and 4) an assortment of small stuff in the zipper pouch (pens, AirPods, knife, Epipen, chapstick, keys etc). The outer pocket has a slim notebook slid in with room to spare.

I have never owned a bag that struck such a perfect balance of size and capacity, while at the same time being quite possibly the most beautiful bag Waterfield has ever made. It is a joy to use

I absolutely love this bag! It holds a good amount, and the sleek, minimalist design with no logos gives it such a timeless, stylish look. The leather is beautiful and high quality, and the swivel strap is a thoughtful detail that makes it even more functional. I’ve already received so many compliments on it!

I wanted a sturdy, smaller bag to take a minimal number of items out - an iPad mini, a small camera, and a few extras, and this is essentially perfect. The craftsmanship feels great and the design is really enjoyable to use and it is really easy to quickly grab my camera or something when I need it while still feeling like the bag and items inside are secure. I also particularly appreciate the metal-on-metal attachment point design for the crossbody strap as it feels much more durable than the typical fabric-on-metal loops that my other bags use - and this is the part I find typically wears out first and becomes annoying to deal with.
