Sling Bags for Summer

• Sling bags offer easy access to all the essentials, comfortable ways of wearing and a minimalist silhouette.
• Read on for tips on all the ways you can wear a sling bag for summer meetups—and style picks that get the job done.

Summer is all about making the most of the warm weather, which typically means last minute beach trips, spontaneous weekend plans and impromptu iced coffee meetups. And there’s one bag style that’s known for its ultra-practical design, grab-and-go attitude and modern silhouette: the sling bag.

Below is everything you need to know about sling bags, plus a few go-to Coach styles for summer.

Let’s start with the basics. With the convenience of a crossbody, security of an old-fashioned fanny pack and style of a modern, minimalist handbag, sling bags are basically everything you can ask for in a summer plus-one. The style features an adjustable strap that rests over the shoulder, hanging diagonally across the chest or back. They’re known for keeping all the essentials safe and secure while maintaining a lightweight, wearable silhouette.

Easy Access

Keep your sling bag hanging in front of you for easy access on the go before sliding it to your back—all without ever taking the bag off.

Comfort

Sling bags distribute weight diagonally, making them easier on your back and shoulders than traditional backpacks.

Minimalist Design

Sling bags are anything but bulky, which is why they’re an ideal pick for travel, whether you’re heading out for the day or preparing for a long-haul flight.
