    Perfectly sized for my going out the door pouch

    It's either in hand or tossed into a larger day pack and perfect for either use case. Love it!

    Perfect bag is perfect!

    This is my second Bantam, and it continues to be the perfect bag for carrying my essentials: phone, wallet, keys, wireless earbuds. I can also tuck my Kindle and charging cables in and it’s the perfect seat back bag for airplane travel. I love the glossy black material, and appreciate the low profile. You can’t go wrong with this one!

    Love!

    Beautiful bag - love the material! Large enough to carry needed essentials for times when i do not need to carry many or large items. Fits my EPI-pens, phone, keys, and a small wallet . Lightweight -easy- casual bag. I like the option to wear as crossbody, in another bag , or around the waist.
