Expert Reply:
The Thule Force XT L Rooftop Cargo Box # TH6357B will fit just fine on your 2021 Subaru Crosstrek and you'll have plenty of room to still gain unrestricted access to your rear hatch area. According to my research from the front crossbar to the rear hatch measures 52" and the XT L only requires 47-1/2" for proper clearance.
If you don't already have a roof rack then I recommend checking out a Thule WingBar Evo crossbar system. The parts you need are listed below but will vary depending on if you have flush or raised rails on your roof.
Raised Rails
50" WingBar Evo Crossbars - # TH711320
Evo Raised Rail Feet - # TH710401
Flush Rails
47" WingBar Evo Crossbars - # TH711220
Rapid Podium Feet - # TH460R
Fit Kit - # THKIT4101
You can also add locks to either setup for a little more security. The 4-Core Kit # TH450400 is just to have the roof rack matching but if you want the roof rack and cargo box to all have matching cores then you need the 6-Core Kit # TH450600 instead.
