Miriam K. wrote, “Hi there, I’m having a hard time replacing my broken messenger bag. I like a large bag, but not to carry a laptop, just as an everyday purse. The problem with most women’s crossbody bags is that they’re too small and fancy (and the strap is too short) for someone with a larger body. I usually go for a men’s messenger bag, but some of them are very heavy, even when empty. Can you find a simple, reasonably lightweight, leather or fabric-and-leather crossbody messenger bag that doesn’t cost a fortune, has a long strap (with a drop of at least 24″), and isn’t too manly? Thanks!”
