Frye Women’s Melissa Zip Crossbody Bag

A Bag That Tells a Story

Unlike mass-produced leather bags that degrade over time, the Melissa Zip Crossbody is built to age gracefully. The Antique Pull-Up leather is treated with special waxes and oils; when the leather is pulled or stretched, these oils migrate, creating beautiful tonal variations. This means every scuff or fold adds to the bag’s rugged, “well-loved” aesthetic, making it truly one-of-a-kind.

Key Highlights:

• Premium Italian Leather: Made from 100% genuine leather that has been brushed to a soft, low-luster shine. It’s thick and durable but becomes increasingly supple with use.

• Smart Organization: Despite its sleek profile, it features a wide exterior back slip pocket for easy phone access, plus an interior zip pocket for valuables.

• Signature Design Details: The bag is finished with antiqued metal hardware and an oversized tied leather tassel, a hallmark of the Melissa collection that provides an easy grip for the heavy-duty zipper.

• Adjustable Comfort: The leather strap offers a 22-inch drop, allowing it to sit comfortably against the hip as a crossbody or be shortened for use as a long shoulder bag.

• Timeless “Melissa” Heritage: Founded in 1863, Frye is the oldest continuously operated shoe company in the US. This bag carries the same equestrian-inspired DNA as their world-famous Melissa boots.
