COS presents an edit of functional bags for when you’re on the move. Scroll down, as we take a closer look at six key variations crafted entirely from recycled materials, including waterproof nylon gabardine. From the mini messenger to the weekend holdall, these cleverly designed pieces will accompany you on any trip, whatever the weather or distance. 

THE POUCH

Meet the ultimate airport companion, the pouch. Easy to carry hands-free, it tucks away discreetly beneath a jacket to keep your documents safe and handy. The webbing shoulder strap adjusts to your preference. 

Black storage bag

Slip your cardholder into one of two front pockets and keep your passport and smartphone in the main compartment, secured by a press-stud closure.

THE CROSSBODY

They say good things come in small packages, but this bag has more packing potential than you might give it credit for.

Black crossbody bag

Complete with two side slip pockets for your earbuds, front pockets for essentials and internal slip compartments to organize your wallet and passport from your smartphone, it packs a punch and is completely hands-free when you want it to be.

THE MINI MESSENGER

The pouch’s more spacious cousin, this utility-inspired mini messenger brings all the practical qualities of the former bag, plus a roomier main compartment to stow your essentials.

Black shoulder bag

Inside, there are pockets for your passport, wallet and smartphone, so it doubles as an onboard bag, too.

THE BACKPACK 

From overnight stays to spontaneous adventures, a backpack can do it all. This style is particularly commuter-friendly and equipped with outdoor-ready features, too. 

Beige backpack with drawstring closing

Simply hook your key onto the inbuilt clip for safekeeping and stow a water bottle in the side holder for accessible refreshment. It also has a back slip pocket that seamlessly slides onto a suitcase for airport convenience.

THE WEEKEND HOLDALL 

This weekender is crafted from recycled-nylon gabardine that’s resistant to rain. Perfect for business and pleasure, it can be carried by two top handles, crossbody or slotted securely onto a suitcase.

Black satchel

Inside there’s space for a laptop, tablet, an onboard read and your documents. Keep your wallet and smartphone within reach thanks to the slip pockets.

THE CONVERTIBLE BACKPACK 

Ideal for trips that aren’t quite a one-day turnaround, this style converts from an oversized tote to a handy backpack. 

Black rucksack

Optimal as a bag that fits more than just the essentials, it’s designed with a padded pocket to stow a laptop or MacBook.
