Collection: Mini Bags

Small but mighty, the Radical Yes Mini Bag collection is designed for the creative woman who values "hands-free" essentialism. We have created these small silhouettes to meet your IRL needs. Perfect for a phone, keys, wallet, glasses, and any other small essentials you may need on hand. Whether it's a mini-crossbody or a minimalist pouch, each piece is handcrafted in small batches using Leather Working Group (LWG) certified leathers and recycled nylons. We often like to style our mini bags alongside a larger tote or work bag, keeping your essentials separate and within easy reach. These joyful, considered accessories allow you to move through your life with grace, confidence, and zero extra weight.

At Radical Yes, we believe a mini bag can be a functional tool in your everyday wardrobe. Mini bags can be divisive, as some believe they are too small to carry what you need from day to day, but who says it needs to carry everything you need? We believe that everyone needs at least one mini bag. They are perfect for quick walks to your local cafe or supermarket, where you really only need your phone, keys, wallet, and a few extra bits and pieces. If you have a long commute to work every day on public transport, we are big believers in rocking 2 bags: one mini bag for your essentials and another for your work needs, books, lunch, and more. Having your essentials in one dedicated small bag means you won’t find yourself rummaging through your giant bag just to find your keys. 

Our bags typically have a brighter interior lining to help you find your belongings, and all of our mini bags come with a removable and adjustable strap. The strap can be shortened to wear over the shoulder or can be extended to be worn cross-body, perfect for hands-free moments we know our customers appreciate. The strap can also be taken off entirely to swap for another colour, or simply worn as a clutch in hand. 

Maintenance is key for these small investment pieces. Because we produce 'little and often' in small batches, we’re able to keep a close eye on the quality of every stitch and zipper before they reach our Queensberry Street store. With this in mind, we still recommend moments of care for your bag to ensure they last for many seasons. We suggest applying a waterproofing spray once a month to prevent not only water damage but also dirt and dust from building up on the bag. If your bag is leather, we recommend applying a leather conditioner once a month as well. For nylon bags, we recommend a fabric cleaner or a damp cloth to spot clean.
