Desert Loom Cross Bag
The Desert Loom Cross Bag is a compact crossbody woven in our Jacquard Natural fabric, with an earthy, sun-warmed colourway that draws straight from desert landscapes. It’s part of the Desert Loom collection — bags built for people who move light and move often.
Sling the adjustable strap across your body and your phone, wallet, and keys stay close and secure, whether you’re weaving through a festival crowd, commuting, or running quick errands around town.
Woven With Character
The jacquard weave here isn’t printed on — it’s woven into the fabric itself, giving it real texture and depth. Desert Loom’s palette leans earthy and warm, capturing the tones of open, sunbaked landscapes in a pattern that only looks better with wear.
- Woven, not printed — texture and pattern run through the fabric.
- Handmade in India — natural variation between bags is part of the craft.
- Earthy palette — tones drawn from desert landscapes, not synthetic dye-shop brights.
Built for Hands-Free Days
A long, adjustable strap means you can wear it exactly where it’s comfortable, while the compact shape keeps your phone, wallet, and keys secure through crowded spaces, festivals, or a quick dash of errands. It’s a small bag doing an important job well.

Frequently Asked Questions (Qand A)
Q: What’s the difference between the Cross Bag and the Nomad Carryall?
A: The Cross Bag is compact and minimal, sized for your phone, wallet, and keys. The Nomad Carryall is the roomier option, built for longer trips and bulkier loads. Same weave, same collection, different jobs.
Q: Is the strap adjustable?
A: Yes, the strap length adjusts so you can wear the bag higher or lower, whichever’s more comfortable for you.
Q: Is this bag good for festivals?
A: It’s a good fit — the compact crossbody shape keeps your essentials close and secure while your hands stay free, which is exactly what you want moving through a crowd.
Q: How do I clean the jacquard fabric?
A: As with most woven textile bags, spot-clean gently with a barely damp cloth and let it air dry out of direct sunlight. Skip the washing machine, and take a stubborn stain to a specialist textile cleaner rather than scrubbing it yourself.
Q: Is it handmade?
A: Yes, each bag is handmade in India, so small variations in the weave are normal and part of the character.
