Soft bags are the flexible alternative to a hard box: lighter, quicker to fit and remove, and easier to stuff into odd spaces, in waxed canvas, waterproof fabric, and roll-top nylon. Roll-top and convertible bags from Bagaboo seal cargo against rain and double as backpacks or totes; handmade waxed-canvas bags from Dyed in the Wool and ERTZ trade weatherproofing for looks and craft; delivery and frame bags from HPA, Radical Design, and Atelier de la Baleine cover working and touring use.
Prices run from around 35 EUR for a small pocket to 510 EUR for a made-in-Berlin canvas bag, so there's a fit for a quick shopping run and for daily commercial use. Check the bag is sized for your cargo area or frame, since many are cut for a named platform.
