Nela | Crossbody Bag

The casual student/commuter bag. Nela has checkered nylon fabric, a big drawstring front pocket, and fits a 13" MacBook. Lightweight, functional, urban aesthetic.

What Makes It Work

• Checkered Fabric: Nylon/polyester gingham check pattern (not plain solid). Some colors are checkered, some are solid—see color descriptions below.
• 13" MacBook Fits: 33cm x 11cm x 23cm means proper laptop protection plus room for essentials. Not huge, but functional for daily commuting.
• Front Drawstring Pocket: Large external pocket with adjustable drawstring. Quick-access for phone, wallet, keys without opening main compartment. Urban skate/streetwear vibe.
• Side Bottle Pockets: Two exterior side pockets for water bottle or umbrella. Hands-free hydration.
