The Befen Leather Crossbody Purse is made from full-grain, pebbled leather with a zippered closure, offering a soft feel and classic look. It measures 5.6 inches tall by 8.7 inches wide making it a solid compact option if you’re aiming to pack light. That said, the bag is still impressively spacious, since it can hold a smartphone comfortably (which many shoppers confirm), as well as keys, cards, and other small essentials. In fact, the built-in six card slots eliminate the need for a wallet when you carry this purse, offering more room for other necessities like sunglasses, a city map, or travel documents. Zippered pockets on the interior and exterior of the bag and a slip pocket for cash add extra organization and security.

One detail that shoppers love about the bag is its versatility, since there are multiple ways to wear it. It has a removable wrist strap if you’d prefer to carry it as a wristlet, as well as a removable crossbody strap that’s adjustable from 30 to 55 inches, so you can wear it across your body or on your shoulder. And if you’d like to transition the bag from day to night, just remove the strap and style it as a clutch.

Buyers also appreciate the storage this bag offers, even with its compact size. One customer raved that the crossbody purse is “handy” and versatile" and helps them “travel light.” They continued, “I carry cards, a little cash, passport (if traveling), lipstick, keys, phone, and some cash, and I’m ready to go out.” And a final shopper, who purchased the bag to attend a bachelorette party, added that the bag “fits everything I need and keeps things organized and accessible.”

The crossbody bag is available in 35 colors and patterns, including neutrals like black, brown, and navy, as well as bolder options like metallic pewter, teal, and black and white colorblock. There are also two other sleek styles: one that comes with a front flap instead of a zipper and one with extra pockets.
