This slouchy silhouette is coated with the brand’s signature waterproof coating and has plenty of storage pockets for all of your necessities. It also comes in four different colorways (we’re personally obsessing over the striking red).

If there was an award for being TikTok’s favorite bag, we would def nominate this does-it-all one from UNIQLO.

What more could we ask for in a crossbody?! Literally nothing.

This bag from Longchamp is made from recycled nylon for top-tier durability and has interior pockets to organize your essentials. The thick strap is also removable so it doubles as a handheld purse!

Utility Cross Body Bucket Bag

We’re quite literally obsessed with anything and everything from Alo. And while a bunch of these fab options have adjustable straps, this crossbody also has an adjustable drawstring closure so you can alter the compactness of the bag itself. The bucket style and mesh fabrication add a sporty touch, and we love the side pocket for some extra storage space.

A sling is an unfailing crossbody accessory, and this multi-pocket one has tons of lil compartments for all of your go-to essentials. Designed from water-repellent nylon, this sleek and structured sling will keep your precious items protected and at your hip at all times!

More space? Yes, please! This foldover crossbody expands so you can put larger items in the bag—perhaps your comfort water bottle or a pair of headphones? It’s also made from recycled water bottles so you can feel (and look) good sporting it.

What materials are best for a waterproof crossbody?

If you’re looking for a crossbody that will keep your belongings dry no matter what mother nature throws your way, a bag with a synthetic material like nylon or polyester will be your best bet. These water-resistant fabrics repel liquids so they don’t seep into your precious bag and stain the fabric. And obvi all of the fab options we found above are made with water-resistant materials—you’re welcome!

Can I wash my crossbody bag?

Always make sure to read the care instructions on the tag of your crossbody (or anything for that matter) before washing it. Most of these options can be hand-washed or spot-cleaned to make ‘em look good as new!
