I've found the perfect swap for Uniqlo's viral bag—and it's so easy to get your hands on

The Amazon YIKOEE Crescent Bag in cream/ on a blue, purple and pink textured, gradient template

As a devout fan of the viral Uniqlo crossbody bag (and its now-legendary storage power) myself, I'm always on the lookout for a swap—especially one that I can order alongside my fave Birkenstock clog dupes and non-comedogenic foundations, with one swift and easy checkout. This Amazon shoulder bag allows me to do just that...

Costing just $14.99 (that's around $4 cheaper than the OG), this 'moon bag' is available in a range of colors, some similar to Uniqlo's shade range and some not—meaning you can actually own one that everyone and their moms don't have! It also features a very similar, soft canvas-like material and the ability to fit all your handbag essentials and then some, into its teeny crescent-shaped compartment. 

But that's far from all, here are all the other reasons why you need to add this bag to your capsule wardrobe and if you aren't logging into Amazon as you read this, err why not?

Available in six stylish shades, including cream, black, pastel pink and green, this soft, nylon bag ranges from $14.99 to $16.99, as opposed to the Uniqlo round shoulder bag's $19.90 price tag. It also features a similar zip closure, two inside pockets and an adjustable strap.  

It's described as lightweight, waterproof, foldable (so ideal for vacay packing) and easy to clean. As for the reviews, we'll let those speak for themselves...

One shopper wrote: "This bag is a great dupe for the Uniqlo crossbody bag! It’s very durable. I’ve used it on several trips and been really impressed."

While another raved, "Just spent two weeks in Europe and I used this bag every day. It held my phone, wallet, sunglasses, a little pouch plus a small water bottle. It folds flat in your suitcase and love that you can adjust the strap to wear it across your chest or as a crossbody. Will always travel with this bag!" 

Others also compared it to the Baggu crescent bag (view at Urban Outfitters), so if you've had your eye on that one, this Amazon find could be a great alternative.


This type of bag is perfect for all year-round styling, whether it's layering it over your fave coat or pairing it with a flowy skirt and some Adidas Samba sneakers. Crossbody bags are so in and never fail to elevate a fit and add a dose of cool.
