Sandqvist · GRID Expandable Crossbody Bag

GRID Expandable Crossbody Bag: two zips on the front take it from 9 to 13 litres.

The GRID Expandable Crossbody Bag is a 340 g Sandqvist crossbody bag in water-resistant recycled ripstop nylon. During the week, it stays flat and holds your wallet, keys and a book in its 9 litres. On Saturday, you open the two zips on the front: it widens from 38 to 50 cm, goes up to 13 litres, and the evening jumper fits.

In the rain

Drizzle at the market: it runs straight off the ripstop.

Light rain

Water-resistant fabric

Recycled ripstop nylon, unlined: light rain and splashes run off it; in steady rain, water eventually gets through.

This bag

Proper rain

Waterproof fabric

PU-coated recycled polyester and YKK Aquaguard zips: your things stay dry in steady rain.

Steady rain eventually gets through: slip anything that mustn't get wet into a pouch.

Sandqvist

Bags for the city and for the forest, designed in Stockholm since 2004.

Since 2004

Three childhood friends, Anton, Daniel and Sebastian, founded Sandqvist in Stockholm: they split their time between the city and the forest and couldn't find a bag made for both.

Carried before it's sold

Every prototype is carried by bike around Stockholm, on trains and planes and along forest paths before it makes the collection.

2-year guarantee

Sandqvist guarantees its bags for two years against manufacturing defects: zips, buckles, seams. For a bag bought from Eiken, the claim goes through us.

Eiken's take

Why we chose it
340 g, and two zips that take the bag from 9 to 13 litres: the same crossbody bag for the morning commute and the Saturday wander.
Worth knowing
Just one pocket, on the inside: the small things travel together in the main compartment.
Who it's for
Anyone who wants their hands free in town, and a bag that grows on the days they carry more.

Baptiste, Eiken

Questions

What are the dimensions and weight of the GRID Expandable Crossbody Bag?

28 × 38 × 12 cm (height, width, depth), 50 cm wide with the zips open, and 340 g empty, for 9 litres (13 with the zips open).

Is the GRID Crossbody waterproof?

No, it's water-resistant: the fabric copes with light rain and everyday splashes. In steady rain, water eventually gets through; a pouch for anything that mustn't get wet is all you need.

GRID Crossbody or GRID Tote?

The Crossbody, 28 cm tall and 9 litres (13 with the zips open), is mostly worn crossbody and grows in width. The Tote, 50 cm tall and 29 litres, takes a 16-inch laptop and can also be carried in the hand; its zips take it from 10 to 22 cm deep.

Does the GRID Crossbody fit under the seat on a plane?

With the zips closed, its 28 × 38 × 12 cm fits the size limit for the free small bag that goes under the seat (40 × 30 × 20 cm on Ryanair, 45 × 36 × 20 cm on easyJet). With the zips open, its 50 cm width is too much. Size limits checked in October 2026: check with your airline.
