Uniqlo's viral TikTok crossbody moon bag now comes in 3 corduroy colours
At a recent preview of Uniqlo's F/W 2023 collection, our writer got to view a different version of the viral moon bag – and it comes in corduroy material.
Uniqlo's S$19.90 crossbody bag is everywhere – thanks to its affordable price point and functionality. It first went viral on TikTok last year when shoppers filmed themselves stocking essentials in this deceptively tiny bag with surprisingly roomy space. It's almost like Doraemon's infinite pocket, if you ask me!
With over 40 million views on its hashtag #uniqlobag, we've seen influencers lugging tumblers, wallets, phones, snacks, nappies, sunglasses, and even a change of baby clothes, but the weight doesn't seem to be a deterrent.
At one point, the bag was sold out in Singapore but Uniqlo's Round Mini Shoulder Bag 30 Natural is now back in stock with much fanfare.
At this year's media preview of Uniqlo's Fall/Winter 2023 collection, I got to view a different version of the viral moon bag – and it comes in corduroy material and three colours (off-white, black and brown).

First impressions of Uniqlo's Round Mini Shoulder
Personally, I like the corduroy texture as it is softer than the nylon version, and the style looks much more elevated.
But the thing with corduroy is that it attracts lint as well. On top of that, the colour fades over time. To care for it, wash it separately with similar colours and do not tumble dry.
The shape doesn't deviate too much from its original version, and the colours look lively against all-black outfits.
What shoppers are saying about the bag
Because the bag just recently debuted on the official website, a handful of glowing reviews are already touching on the bag's functionality and colours.
One shopper shared, "I love this sling...super light and easy to carry. I can put anything inside!"
Another shopper loved the texture: "It’s the texture of the bag as they used corduroy that made me love it! Plus this color keeps growing on me."
Our Lifestyle Editor, Cadence, can't stop gushing about it too: "I love to be hands-free, yet there are daily essentials that I need to bring around. The Uniqlo Round Mini Shoulder Bag is surprisingly capacious and perfect for travels too. Here's what I usually throw into it: an umbrella, sunglasses, wallet, keys, smartphone, sanitiser, and even a small water bottle! I'm very particular about lugging around heavy bags as it is not great for posture and shoulders. That's why this lightweight sling bag is now my choice of bag everywhere I go. No harm buying more than one colour since they go with everything and are so gender-neutral!"
