Size Guide

Every bag lists its own measurements on its product page. This page explains the shapes and how they run.

How to use this properly

Do not guess from the photograph — photographs of bags are almost always misleading about scale. Take a bag you already own and like, lay it flat, measure the width and the height, and compare those two numbers with the ones below.

Tote bags

Size Width × height Metric Fits
Standard 15 in × 14 in 38 × 35.5 cm A4 folder, 13" laptop, lunch, a paperback
Large 17 in × 16 in 43 × 40.5 cm 15" laptop, gym kit, a full shop

Weekender & duffle bags

Shape Width × height Metric Fits
Tall 13 in × 16 in 33 × 40.5 cm Two nights, packed upright; easier under a seat
Wide 15 in × 14 in 38 × 35.5 cm Two to three nights, folded flat; better in an overhead locker

Makeup & wash bags

Size W × H × D Metric Fits
Medium 14 × 14 × 5.5 in 35.5 × 35.5 × 14 cm Daily makeup, brushes upright
Large 16 × 16 × 6.5 in 40.5 × 40.5 × 16.5 cm Full wash kit, bottles standing up

Where a bag is listed as Small, Medium or Large

Some patterns are made in a graded run rather than fixed shapes. In those cases the exact figures for that specific bag are on its own product page — we do not publish a single conversion chart, because it would be wrong for some of them.

Straps

Where a bag offers Adjustable Strap, it is a detachable shoulder strap adjusting roughly 35–55 in (89–140 cm). No Strap means the carry handles only.
