While the City Explorer 007 bag may not be able to get you out of tight jams like most of [James Bond's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/james-bond-2024-advent) accessories, it will make your look a lot classier.

The [leather bag](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sonder-collection) is designed by WotanCraft. The interior of the bag uses high quality water-resistant fabric. The exterior contains Paraffin wax, which will also repel liquids. There is foam padding included to keep all of your fragile items securely protected from any harm.

Like the secret agent, the City Explorer 007 messenger bag is able to preform well under pressure; it is able to withstand extreme weather conditions. The [cross body strap](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cleo-bag) makes it easier for you to sling it over your shoulders when you find yourself escaping from villainous characters.
