Casual and cute, the Lululemon Crossbody with Nano Pouch sold out quickly after its release in 2022.
Features
Fabric Composition & Care
There is nothing natural about the fabric in the Crossbody with Nano Pouch; it’s made up of 100% nylon fabric with 100% polyester trim.
Lululemon does not recommend washing any of their handbags, even on a delicate cycle.
Instead, I’ve found it easier to spot clean dirt or stains off the exterior of my bags. To clean your bag, place a small dollop of dish soap onto a damp paper towel. Touching the soapy part of the paper towel to the stain, gently scrub the stain in a circular motion. Once the stain lifts, grab a second damp paper towel and wipe any remaining soap or debris off the surface of your bag.

Price and Availability
The Crossbody with Nano Pouch retails for $88.
Unfortunately, the Crossbody with Nano Pouch is one of Lululemon’s more popular accessories so it’s not always available. Although Lululemon restocks it on a regular basis, the bag sells out within hours of each restock. If you’re determined to get your hands on one without overpaying resellers, I recommend joining the r/lululemon subreddit. Users will post restocks of popular items shortly after they launch, allowing you to get your hands on the items you want faster.
Alternatively, you can sign up for restock alerts. Lululemon will send you an email when the bag is restocked. Keep in mind that these emails may or may not arrive after the item has already sold out; r/lululemon is more reliable if you’re determined to snag one!
Overall Impressions
Let’s be honest- the Lululemon Crossbody with Nano Pouch is a clear dupe for the Prada Re-Edition Re-Nylon Bag. However, while I’m not opposed to paying Prada prices for leather handbags, I don’t think a nylon handbag is worth $2,000. I’m much happier spending $88 on an affordable, quality dupe!
Though made from the same material as Lululemon’s Everywhere Belt Bag, the Crossbody with Nano Pouch is more versatile. Unlike the EBB, the Crossbody with Nano Pouch can be dressed either up or down, allowing it to be styled with a wider variety of outfits.
While the Nano Pouch is cute, it’s too small to hold most of my everyday-carry belongings. Even so, I used it to store a couple emergency hair ties.
Altogether, my two Crossbody with Nano Pouches have become my top go-to bags. I wear them almost every time I run errands. They’re very handy to pack when traveling and they look cute styled with dressier outfits!
