When traveling, you can choose to load everything you possibly can for those extended adventures, or you can aim for carrying barely anything and save yourself a lot of hassle at security checkpoints. This crossbody sling bag (sometimes referred to as a “chest bag”) falls into the latter category.

It's slim enough to wear under a jacket and be almost invisible there, and it keeps all your small travel essentials close at hand: your passport, your phone, your wallet, a pair of earbuds, an iPad mini or Kindle reader, sunglasses, etc. There are a few pockets to keep things nice and organized, one of which is RFID-protected to keep your card data safe within.

Not only is this bag perfect for lightweight traveling, it's also perfect for things like bike commuting and everyday errand-running.
