The strap belongs in the first drawing

  1. 01 / Fit & adjustment

    Give the strap width and shortest and longest wearable lengths. State whether it is fixed, detachable or interchangeable.

  2. 02 / Attachment points

    Show where the strap meets the body. Review fittings, reinforcement and the position of the filled bag when worn.

  3. 03 / Access & capacity

    Set body dimensions around the phone, wallet and other contents. Check the opening while the strap is attached.

The specification

Specify the complete combination

A change to the strap, fitting or closure can change how the whole bag works. Keep those decisions together in the brief.

Body & contents
Mark width, height and depth. Draw pocket locations and the dimensions of the items that determine usable space.
Closure & security
Provide zip, flap or fastening references. Review access without needing to empty the bag.
Leather & fittings
Send colour, grain, thickness and metal-finish references together. Review the attachments and edge treatment on the sample.
Your collection
Record the body, strap, lining and branding as one approved combination. List alternatives and their quantities explicitly.

Carry it, fill it, open it

  1. Wear the sample

    Check both ends of the strap adjustment range, comfort and the way the filled bag sits.

  2. Try the opening

    Use the intended contents. Check pockets, fastening access and pressure on the closure.

  3. Confirm the brief

    If you use the word “sling”, include a wearing reference. A crossbody, chest-worn bag and shoulder sling may require different constructions.

Crossbody sourcing questions

What is the minimum crossbody order?

100 bags per colour, per style. List separate body, colour and strap combinations so the order breakdown is clear.

Can we customise the strap and fittings?

Share dimensions, adjustment range, attachment method and finish. Availability and special component requirements are reviewed during development.

Can matching small leather goods be developed?

Yes. Wallets and cardholders can share a leather, colour or branding direction while retaining their own layouts and quantities.
