Is the nylon Le 5 à 7 worth it over the leather version?

The nylon version is lighter and more weather-resistant and typically costs less than the leather Le 5 à 7. If you want a bag that ages like leather or holds resale value, the leather version is the better buy.

What fits inside the Le 5 à 7 Nylon?

At about 9 by 6 by 2 inches, it holds a phone, cardholder, keys and a small pouch. A long wallet plus sunglasses will not fit comfortably.

Can the strap be worn crossbody?

Yes. The shoulder strap is adjustable, with a listed drop of about 39 cm, which suits crossbody wear for most adults and shoulder carry for taller wearers.

Is the nylon water-resistant?

The textured nylon shrugs off light rain and wipes clean, but it is not waterproof. The open hook fastening means heavy rain can still get inside.

When is the best time to buy it?
