Canvas is a strong fabric with a relaxed everyday look, which makes a canvas shoulder bag a great daily bag. Most bags on this page use dense canvas with a water-repellent finish that protects against light rain. All sizes are here: the 1 liter Zenitho Edge for your phone, the 3.8 liter Bonanza Medium for a small tablet, and bags of 8 to 18 liters with a laptop compartment for 13 to 16 inch laptops. The common colors are black, khaki, olive, green and blue.
Which canvas shoulder bag is right for you?
For a phone and wallet, Zenitho Edge is enough, at 200 g (7 oz). Bonanza Medium, at 24 x 20 x 8 cm (about 9.4 x 7.9 x 3.1 in), holds a small tablet and has a hidden inner pocket for valuables. The 6.2 liter Klapa Pro, with 3 zippered compartments, suits work, school and city trips. For a laptop there's Wingate up to 13 inches, Marshmallow up to 14 inches, BONANZA Pro 2.0 for 14 to 15 inches, Tsunami Pro Side for 15 inches and Penephira RETRO up to 16 inches.
Canvas or leather?
Canvas is lighter than leather, needs no special care and stands up to heavy daily use. Leather looks more formal and is heavier. In these canvas bags, durability comes down to fabric density and zippers: BONANZA Pro has heavy-duty No. 8 and No. 10 zippers, Wingate has metal zippers, and Penephira RETRO is made of tough, quality 16 oz canvas.
How to clean a canvas bag
Brush off dry dirt with a soft brush and wipe stains with a damp cloth and a little mild soap. Don't soak the bag or put it in a dryer, so you don't damage the water-repellent finish. After cleaning, leave the bag open to air-dry, out of direct sun.
