Product Insights
The Emma Topstitched Crossbody Bag by Lambert balances sustainable vegan construction with versatile functionality: its 58% recycled shell and 100% lining are PETA-Approved Vegan, and the bag converts from crossbody to clutch or tote insert via a detachable strap, with two zippered compartments for organization. However, its compact 7.5x5.25x3-inch size fits a water bottle but not a tablet or paperback, and while a damp cloth suffices for cleaning, full care demands monthly conditioning and UV protection—a tradeoff for its lightweight, animal-leather alternative.
Verified claims
- Care expectations
- The smooth faux leather wipes clean with a damp cloth for routine care, but to help prevent drying and fading it benefits from a synthetic leather conditioner every one to two months and a UV protectant every few months.
- Capacity
- Fits a small water bottle or sunglasses case and daily essentials like a phone, wallet, and keys, but not a tablet or paperback.
- Organization
- Two main zippered compartments and multiple card slots provide organization, but there are no additional slip or interior zippered pockets.
- Pouch mode
- Removing straps turns it into a clutch or maxi pouch.
- Material
- 58% recycled shell and 100% lining match Matt & Nat; Espe Jade lacks recycled content.
- Size
- 7.5x5.25 face, 3 deep — smaller than Matt & Nat Pair but deeper.
- Price comparison
- $115 CAD, $5 above Matt & Nat, $55 above Espe Jade, plus dust bag and charm.
- Care and longevity
- Storing it in the included dust bag and using gentle care helps the faux leather last toward the 2–5 year range typical of well-maintained polyurethane.
- Wearing options
- Worn crossbody, shoulder, clutch, or inside a tote as an organizer.
- Cleaning
- Smooth faux leather wipes clean with just a damp cloth.
- Weight
- Lighter than a similar animal-leather crossbody bag.
- Storage
- Includes a signature dust bag for storage and protection.
- Strap versatility
- Wide adjustable strap detaches to convert to a maxi pouch or tote insert.
- Included accessories
- Comes with signature dust bag and removable charm.
- Sustainability
- PETA-Approved Vegan certified; 90% recycled collection aiming for 100% by 2027; Canadian brand with Montreal flagship.
- Canadian footprint
- Lambert is headquartered in Montreal with a flagship store in Plateau-Mont-Royal and is sold in over 280 Canadian retail locations.

Wear it crossbody, on the shoulder, or as a handheld pouch
The Emma crossbody bag adapts to how you want to carry it through the day. Its wide, adjustable strap lets you wear it across the body or on one shoulder, and the strap is removable so you can carry the bag in hand as a maxi pouch.[2,3,4]
Carry it strapless as a maxi pouch
Without its strap, the Emma Topstitched Crossbody Bag can be carried in the hand and used as a maxi pouch. This gives you a handheld option for occasions when you don't want to wear it crossbody.[3]
Keep your cards handy inside a crossbody you wear all day
This crossbody has multiple built-in card slots in its interior, so you can store your cards right in the bag instead of carrying a separate wallet. The stacked slots are made from the same brown leather as the bag, with the slots attached to the interior wall. That makes it a simple pick for hands-free outings when you just need your cards and bag together.[4,5]
Product comparison
Compared within this brand.
| Emma Topstitched Crossbody Bag: Choose this if you want a compact, animal-friendly crossbody: the brand is certified PETA Approved Vegan, and the bag pairs a smooth faux leather shell (58% recycled polyester, 42% polyurethane) with a 100% recycled polyester lining. Its wide adjustable strap is removable, so it can be worn crossbody or carried by hand as a maxi pouch, and inside are two main zipped compartments plus multiple card slots. It is a small one-size bag (5.25 inches tall by 7.5 inches long by 3 inches wide) with no external front pockets, and it comes with a removable signature charm and a dust bag.[1,3,4,6] | Eleanor Pebbled Crossbody Bag: Choose this if you want a compact, structured crossbody with real organization: it has three main compartments (one with a snap closure), an interior zip pocket and slit pocket, an inner key ring clasp, and a top zip closure, in a pebbled faux leather shell with recycled polyester lining. The adjustable, removable crossbody strap with silver swivel clasps and included signature dust bag suit everyday wear, and the bag fits an iPhone 13 Pro Max in its roughly 10.5 by 6.5 by 4.5 inch body (one size, offered in black and brown). Note that the shell is 100% polyurethane rather than genuine leather, so it is a leather-look option, not a leather bag.[7,8,9,10] | Ginny Minimalist Crossbody Bag: Choose this if you want a small, minimalist crossbody for light everyday carry: it measures about 5 by 8.25 by 2.25 inches and offers a main zip compartment, interior card slots, a small zip pocket, and an inner key ring clasp. The pebbled faux leather shell (partly recycled polyester and polyurethane, with a recycled polyester lining) suits shoppers who prefer animal-free materials rather than genuine leather. It comes with a grab handle plus a removable, adjustable crossbody strap, and is offered in one size in Black or Light Brown.[11] |
