We’re sure you’ve heard, but if you haven’t: Amazon’s having a pretty, well, Big Spring Sale right now.
Prices are dropping everywhere, including products that are reaching all-time low prices, like this new Amazon Kindle product.
It might not be a universal struggle, but let me just say, Kindle e-readers are not the easiest devices to throw in your bag and bring on the go, because your bag needs to be able to fit the Kindle. Amazon’s new sling bag, made specifically for Kindle devices, solves this problem.
The sleek recycled leather crossbody bag, available in two colors, is made specifically to fit Kindle, Kindle Paperwhite and Kindle Colorsoft devices. It’s compact, but still big enough to hold everyday essentials like a phone, wallet, reading glasses and more — in addition to the Kindle.
If you picked up an on-sale Kindle e-reader during the Big Spring Sale, you’ll probably want to add the Kindle Sling Bag to your cart, too.
Amazon Sling Bag for Kindle
AmazonThe All-New Sling Bag for Kindle is a premium crossbody accessory crafted from GRS-certified recycled leather, featuring a padded interior and a quick-access front pocket tailored for Kindle, Paperwhite, and Colorsoft models. Designed for readers on the go, it includes an adjustable branded strap and a clever notched leather detail that can double as a makeshift stand to prop up your device for hands-free reading.

The first-ever 7″ Kindle Colorsoft display is high-contrast and easy on the eyes, with a paper-like color that brings covers and content to life.
