BEHIND THE DESIGN
While The Sewfisticated Travelnizer is a fantastic family toiletry bag, and the Packmate has become a favorite compact option. But I wanted something even smaller - something versatile, especially for the men in our lives. That idea evolved into a sleek crossbody with a more streamlined finish, and so the Belmont series was born.

When the Packmate launched, many loved its clean style and versatility. Behind the scenes, we were already working on the Belmont. The Belmont Compact was created as both a crossbody and a compact toiletry bag - perfectly sized and functional. Soon after, requests for a larger version came in, and that’s when the Belmont Luxe took shape: spacious, practical, and true to the same streamlined look and smart organization.
THE BELMONT COMPACT
The Belmont Compact is a versatile crossbody that balances style and function. Carry it with the top grab handle, wear it as a crossbody, or use the back grab handle to convert it into a toiletry bag. As the sequel to the Packmate, it offers the same functionality in a slimmer silhouette.

Despite its size, the Compact is packed with storage:
- Front zipper pocket
- Main top zipper closure
- Inner zipper pocket
- Divider pocket
- Three slip pockets
Finished with bound construction, it’s durable, neat, and professional inside and out.
For photographers, the Belmont Compact also doubles as a camera bag. With Sewfisive Sew-In Premium Foam 4.0 or ByAnnie’s Soft & Stable, it provides protective cushioning for camera bodies and lenses while keeping compartments organized and accessible.

THE BELMONT LUXE
The Belmont Luxe is the larger sibling to the Compact - more spacious but equally refined. It works beautifully as a roomy crossbody, a stylish travel bag, or a functional everyday work companion.

Organization details include:
- Roomy front zipper pocket
- Secure top zipper closure
- 3D divider pocket
- Multiple slip pockets
- Drink sleeve
- Hidden zipper pocket at the back slip pocket
Like the Compact, it’s finished with bound construction for durability and a professional interior. It can even serve as a travel or fitness bag - fitting an 8 1/4" (21 cm) water bottle, towel, and change of clothes with ease.

WHY YOU'LL LOVE THE BELMONT SERIES
Whether you’re heading out for the day, planning a weekend getaway, or looking for reliable everyday organization, the Belmont Compact and Belmont Luxe deliver. From sleek daily use to spacious travel needs, there’s a Belmont for every occasion.
