Wide and low. The East West sits under the arm the way a good clutch would, but carries more. Its horizontal proportion makes it easy to reach into and impossible to overfill. This is the ION for someone who wants to move through a room without adjusting her bag. Dimensions: 32 × 21 × 12 cm (W × H × D).A paperback fits. A swimsuit fits. Your phone disappears inside it.
