This sling bag works great, because it is quilted it stretches a little to allow you to stuff a few more things in lol. Having said that, I have a small wallet but it is pretty packed and I can get it in but it does make the bag a little bulky. So I'm sure if I pared down and just brought what I needed, such as a few cards and a bit of cash, it would be much easier and not so heavy. So that is on me. It won't be my everyday bag, just when I am really wanting to streamline ....such as taking the grandkids out to the park and what not. Very well made, very pretty colour.
