2. The fabric is water-resistant but not fully waterproof for submersion.
3. The adjustable strap allows it to be worn as a crossbody or around the waist.

Sustainability & ethics

Prada has transitioned its entire production of virgin nylon to Re-Nylon, utilizing Econyl yarn. This material is sourced from recycled fishing nets, discarded carpets, and industrial plastic waste diverted from landfills and oceans. By choosing The Re-Nylon Belt Bag, consumers support a circular economy model that reduces the global warming impact of nylon production by up to 80%.
