Have a question? We want to make sure your bag is perfect! Easy 30-day returns.

Some days you want a bag you can tuck under your arm and get on with your plans. The Sling Short Shoulder Bag understands the assignment. Its 25-inch dock line rope strap keeps it comfortably close, while rich black leather and velvety suede feel sleek enough for dinner and easy enough for everything that happens before it. Colorful rope and gleaming brass keep the all-black look from taking itself too seriously.

Details You’ll Love

Smooth black leather creates a rich backdrop for all the details that make a Wildwood bag feel different.
The suede front panel brings in soft, touchable texture and gives the bag a little extra depth.
A 25-inch dock line rope strap lets the Sling sit neatly under your arm for an easy grab-and-go carry.
The deep base gives your daily essentials plenty of room while preserving the bag’s streamlined silhouette.
A chunky brass zipper keeps everything securely inside and looks a little like jewelry for your bag.
The colorful rope adds a playful coastal detail that stands out beautifully against the black leather.

Handmade in Maine, the Sling Short Shoulder Bag feels a little sleek, a little coastal, and completely unlike the basic black bags everyone else is carrying. Tuck it under your arm and enjoy looking like you tried, even when getting dressed took five minutes.

“This is my first Wildwood Oyster Co bag. I love the size, for a sling, it's not too big and it's not too small. The seaweed tassel and rope/strap in the color of your choice make it stand out from other classic black bags. I grew up by the beach so I was thrilled to be able to order the strap in Beach Rose Pink, which is stunning against the beautiful black leather and suede.”

Frequently Asked Questions

What strap length should I choose for my Sling?

Choose the length based on where you want the bag to sit and how you prefer to carry it. The Short Shoulder is 25 inches, the Long Shoulder is 35 inches, the Short Crossbody is 40 inches. You can also request a custom length if you already know your perfect fit.

Can the Sling be worn over the shoulder or as a crossbody?

Yes. The Sling is available with both shoulder and crossbody strap lengths, so you can choose the carry style that feels most natural to you. Depending on how high you want the crossbody to fall on your body, you can choose either the Long Shoulder or Short Crossbody Length. If you are petite, the Short Shoulder length can also work as a crossbody with the sling behind your back.

What fits inside the Sling?

The Sling has a deep base designed to carry what you need throughout the day without losing its sleek shape. It gives you practical everyday space for errands, travel, dinner plans, and everything in between. As an example, you can fit a water bottle, large sunglasses case and a small notebook. Our Makeup Bag and Clutches also fit inside the sling.

Can I request a custom strap length?

Yes. If one of the standard shoulder or crossbody lengths does not give you the fit you want, you can request a custom rope strap length made just for you. Select the Short Crossbody when you order and either add a note in your order notes or email us at hello@wildwoodoysterco.com after you place your order.
