Product Overview
The Bagbase Matte PU cross-body bag is a masterclass in contemporary, minimalist design, offering a sophisticated alternative to traditional utility bags. Crafted with a focus on both tactile appeal and practical application, this bag features a smooth matte finish that is as professional as it is functional. Its water-repellent construction ensures that your essential items remain protected from the elements, while the compact one-litre capacity provides sufficient space for daily necessities without being cumbersome.
Key Features
- Water-repellent fabric: Engineered to shield your belongings from light rain, ensuring your tools and electronics stay dry.
- Two-way zipped opening: Provides effortless access to the main compartment from either side, improving efficiency on the job.
- Internal mesh pocket: Allows for secure organisation of smaller items, so you are not searching for keys or small tools when time is of the essence.
- Detachable, adjustable webbing strap: Offers versatile carrying options, allowing the bag to be worn across the body, over the shoulder, or even as a waist bag.
- Rubberised zips: These provide a secure grip even in damp conditions and contribute to the bag's sleek, architectural aesthetic.
Design & Performance
This bag is constructed from 100% recycled polyester, coated with a matte-look PU for a finish that is both durable and environmentally conscious. Being PVC-free, it avoids the use of harsh chemicals while maintaining a sturdy structure that holds its shape even when loaded. The rear zipped pocket is a thoughtful addition for security, keeping high-value items close to the body. Despite its lightweight fabric, the bag is built to withstand the rigours of a busy working day, making it a reliable companion for professionals who are constantly on the move.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The smooth surface of the Matte PU collection is exceptionally well-suited for custom branding. For a high-calibre, traditional look, we recommend embroidery; our expert team can stitch your company logo or staff names directly onto the fabric for a finish that will not fade or peel. For those requiring larger, more vibrant graphics, print is an excellent choice, offering sharp lines and bold colours that stand out. Since 1976, MyWorkwear has been refining our in-house customisation processes in Telford, ensuring that every bag we produce meets our exacting standards for quality and brand representation.
Use Cases
This cross-body bag is an ideal solution for event staff, couriers, or retail professionals who need to keep payment terminals, smartphones, or basic tools close at hand. Its gender-neutral, minimalist styling ensures it complements any professional uniform, from casual staff wear to more formal corporate attire. It is equally useful for site supervisors who need to carry essential documentation and devices while keeping their hands free for other tasks.

Practical Advice
The 124cm adjustable strap provides a generous range, making it easy to fit the bag over a heavy winter jacket or a lightweight summer polo shirt. If you prefer to use the bag as an organised insert for a larger rucksack, the strap can be detached entirely to prevent tangling. For those looking to rebrand, the TearAway label makes it simple to add your own bespoke neck or side labels without damaging the garment.
Caring for your product
To ensure the matte PU coating retains its water-repellent properties and aesthetic finish, this bag should be sponge cleaned only. Placing the bag in a washing machine can cause the structural components to warp and may lead to the PU coating peeling over time.
Avoid using bleach or aggressive detergents, as these will degrade the recycled polyester fibres and could damage your custom print or embroidery. Regular maintenance with a damp cloth will keep the bag looking its best and ensure it continues to represent your business professionally for years to come.
