AmeriBag 15" Nylon Healthy Back Bag Ergonomic Crossbody Sling for Everyday Use, Travel & Walking Comfort

In the ongoing quest for the perfect, small, Kindle sized bag, I ordered this bag thinking it would be the one. As a fulltime working mom, I need a bag that is strong and durable enough to handle my home life, and presentable enough to take to work. I also like a tiny to small bag as anything heavy is too much for my shoulders, and prefer crossbody as other bags slip off my shoulders. An added challenge recently is to find a bag that can fit my Kindle Fire and allow me to carry it comfortably (the Fire is quite heavy). The distressed nylon is a fantastic, durable fabric that (in black at least) looks both casual and office-worthy. The pockets in this bag are legendary, and the zippers work beautifully. The interior slip pocket (behind the zipper pocket) is just the right size for my Kindle in leather Roocase. This was a key feature for me as I don't want a bag where my kindle is flopping around or where it can lay flat and make a bag uncomfortable. The challenge with Ameribags is choosing the right size. Since I wanted the smallest bag possible, I ordered the Extra Small, but unfortunately the length doesn't work well for me crossbody. At 5'8" with this 15" bag, the length of it doesn't cross my back enough for a proper fit, particularly where the strap wraps at the side and across my chest. I worked fine on my shoulder, particuarly when carried the opposite way (with the bag at the front and strap at the back), but this isn't my preference for bags. I returned this and tried the FUL Ditty (also to be returned, see other review) and the Ameribag Distressed Nylon in Small and Large Baglett, both of which are keepers (see their reviews). If you're thinking about a Healthy Back Bag, you can't really go wrong with Amazon and their great return policy. If you're not going to carry it crossbody and/or are 5'4" or less, this bag might be perfect for you.

I hate purses. They fall off, it's hard to find things in the bottom of them, they are uncomfortable to carry, or you are constantly switching purses when you just need to run to the grocery store. No thanks! This bag solves all those problems. Like a book bag with more style. Organized space with lots of pockets, but everything is still at your fingertips. It's small enough to flip over your head and forget it's there. Zipper lies against your back for added security. Adjustable strap that never false off your shoulder. Swing it forward to grab what you need and put it back without removing it. Hands free living! This size is perfect for all the necessities without the bulk of unnecessary bag, and a generous open compartment for a few extras. So many pockets! This is my second one of these bags - first one lasted 7+ years with daily use and could have gone longer but I was ready for a fresh look. Worth every penny.

I've carried this purse for nearly 30 years and can't imagine getting anything else.I started with a leather one, which is really nice, gut adds significantly to the weight. Now I use the nylon or microfiber. It's durable and light weight. It really does save my shoulder from strain. Further has plenty of pockets, carries everything I need, but not too much. Be sure to get the Xsmall, it's the size of a normal purse. Even the Small is too big.

This is my second bag of this style. I love the huge amount of pockets. I always put things in the same place so I know where they are. I got the extra small this time which I like more than the small. It’s very comfortable and holds a lot. I easily fit a book, water bottle, phone, wallet, scarf, and more inside. I bought it for a trip but ended up using it every day. I think it’s most comfortable across the body with the purse in the front. Hands free everything accessible, you barely know it’s there.

I've been carrying medium-sized Ameribags in canvas and suede for many years to ergonomically balance weight for spinal fractures and mobility issues. After retiring last year, I don't need to carry as much as I did when I was away from home 12-15 hours a day. It's a bit of a challenge to fit wallet, Kindle, meds, sunglasses, note pads and only 2 slots for pens in the smaller bag. However, for quick trips to the grocery or lunch, I'm enjoying less weight and bulk with this small bag. I'll keep using the medium Ameribag for day-long or out-of-town trips. These bags are very durable and easily brush clean, too.

I ordered the 15 inch bag. I already had a 15 inch AMERIBAG that I bought many years ago. The strap on the new bag that I ordered is not as long as the strap on my old bag. I wish the new bag’s strap had the additional length like my old bag had so I could have more flexibility in adjusting the length. Overall, a very nice and comfortable bag for every day use.

Absolutely love this bag. Perfect size and color and is easy to clean and carry.

Great purse that holds a lot and doesn't hurt the shoulder. Durable and would be perfect for anyone that's active.

Good shape and size (I bought the XS one) for everyday use. My friend liked it so much I gave it to her, and another friend has bought one! They do not slip off your shoulder (a blessing), have numerous pockets for storing goods, even a place for your little umbrella. There's a lock to attach your keys to and also a zipper pocket. All in all a very good everyday dag I would highly recommend.

Great, just as I expected. I've been buying the sepurses for years. There was one small change inside the bag this time --- a red zipper pull on the inside pocket, I'm assuming to make it more visible at the bottom of the bag. I definitely recommend the bag in any colour or fabric.

This is my second Ameribag. The other lasted about 5 years and was still OK...just a few minor repairs & am still keeping it. The newer version is a tad bigger but not really noticeable. What I like about this version is that it has an extra zipper pocket on the inside of the bag which is useful for valuables. Apart from that it is really functional and rests well on the back and does what it should. I like the distressed nylon as it is washable and wears well. I highly recommend it. I purchased the taupe and I really like it.

This is very good cross body bag for travelling. It keeps your important documentation and finances safe and with you. My wife used it for a month as we travelled Europe and we had no problems. Its big enough to carry an Amazon Fire tablet comfortably along with all you other items.
