Streamlined, secure, and built to last. The Cross is your everyday carry, elevated in buffalo leather.

Worth knowing before you buy

No two panels are identical in tone. If you want a flat, uniform, factory-even surface, a coated bag will make you happier than this one.

Care and repair

Colour transfer onto light clothing can happen in the first few weeks. Buff the surface dry with a cloth.
Keep hardware dry after saltwater; brass patinas but salt pits it.
Leather darkens where your hand and jacket touch it. That's patina, not wear — don't try to even it out.
Send it back to us instead of binning it if a stitch or zipper fails — first-year repairs are free.

Something failed? Email contact@wayfaregear.com with the batch number on the internal tag and we'll send a prepaid label. Repairs are free for the life of the product.

My mother-in-law bought two more

Gave one as a gift and within a week the rest of the family had ordered their own. That's the highest compliment I can give a leather bag.

Third purchase from Wayfare

At this point I just buy whatever they make. Consistent quality, honest descriptions, and returns have never been an issue on the one item that wasn't right for me.

Excellent, slightly larger than expected

Quality is not in question — it's outstanding. Just measure carefully before ordering, because it's a little roomier than I pictured from the listing photos.

Replaced a much pricier brand

I had a well-known European label before this and honestly can't find where the extra $180 went. This does the same job and the warranty is better.

Worth every dollar

I compared four brands before ordering and this is the only one where the materials feel better in person than in the photos. Stitching is dead straight and the hardware has real weight to it.

Support answered on the first ring

Had a question about the hide grade before ordering. Called, spoke to a person in about fifteen seconds, and got a straight answer. Ordered on the spot.

Asked by real buyers, answered by us

Darker, and unevenly — fastest at the handles, corners and wherever your hand rests. Most customers see a clear shift in three to six months of daily use.
