Travelon

I've had this bag for a couple of months now and have taken it on several trips including Paris and Barcelona which are known for pickpockets. Even on public transportation, at extremely crowded tourist sites, and dining at outdoor cafes I feel completely secure. The bag is compact but still holds a ton. I was worried that it would be too small to fit everything since I tend to take everything but the kitchen sink with me whenever I leave the house. I can get all of my essentials in there without it being stuffed. I've even managed to jam a cardigan in there in addition to my essentials (it was full to the brim with the cardigan inside). The RFID blocking card and passport slots mean I don't need an additional wallet. There are enough slots for passport, credit cards, insurance card and ID and I put my spending money for the day in a small pouch that I keep in the front zippered pocket along with my phone (this zipper has a lock). Front flap pockets (which don't lock) are good for things like tissues, lip balm, sunscreen and snacks. The back zippered pocket doesn't lock but it sits against your body so you could feel if someone is trying to get in there. This pocket fits an iPad mini or Kindle perfectly. The only issue I've had with this bag is I feel the items in the main part of the bag all fall to the bottom so it can create some bulk at the bottom of the bag. The pockets inside go all the way to the bottom so they don't help with this problem. I feel that a short, horizontal pocket along the top of the bag (mirroring where the front zippered pocket is) would help to keep items more balanced in such a way that the profile of the bag remains slim. This isn't a huge issue however, I just have to do some clever organizing to keep things more vertically aligned. Overall it's a wonderful bag and it's clear Travelon put a lot of thought into the design.

Love the fact that it has pockets so my things stay organized and also that the zippers have like a small carburetor clip on them so no one can open them. Color is on point the purple is beautiful

So very impressed with this bag - it travelled with me from Paris to Sicily. I felt very secured with it - had plenty of room and was considerably attractive.

This purse is great! Everything locks up easily. However, understand that one of the side zippers does NOT have a lock feature. Good place to put snacks while traveling though! Heh. I’m not certain the straps can’t be sliced though. They don’t seem fragile but they can be cut…just probably not quickly. ;) fortunately no one has tried though…

First thing I want to say is that I'm not a purse person. I wear a wallet and chain 90% of the time. I started working at a new company that has business dress instead of casual (no jeans) and suit pants don't go with a wallet and chain! I needed a purse, but I wanted something that would be comfortable to wear and carry a few things. I had a small Passport travel wallet that was doubling as a purse, but I really needed a little extra to carry my phone, medicine, feminine hygiene products and the occasional makeup item for when I'm at the office and need to touch up. Lots of little pockets, security, and not too big, but fits so many things! It even has a little light attached inside so you can search your bag in the dark! The main compartment zips open wide allowing you to rifle through the purse more easily, and there are so many little pockets for things. Most of the zips secure to prevent pickpockets, and the bag is designed to be worn across the body, wearing it as a shoulder bag will likely cause it to slip off the shoulder (and isn't very secure as someone can just snatch it).The little touches of someone who actually USES a purse, this had to be designed by a woman. Hahaha. I would say you could easily fit a medium sized handbag worth of items in here, I was surprised! I don't have much to carry, but I wanted to stuff this with everything I can possibly use I could easily fit just for this review: A pair of trouser socks, 3 tampons and 2 slim pads, foundation, compact mirror, blush, blush brush, pressed powder, lip gloss, liquid eyeliner, mascara, small eye shadow compact combo, a small travel hairbrush, my phone, nail clippers, nail polish, two bottles of medicine, small travel container of hair product, small travel bottles of shampoo and conditioner, small bottle of perfume, travel sized container of deodorant, a change of underwear, a sleep mask, a pair of thin knit leggings with a thin knit tunic top, and I would still have the little pockets for other things to slip in there!

This bag rocks! I took it on my journey to Barcelona, Amsterdam and Copenhagen. After hearing all the talk about pick pockets, slashed bags and ridf scanners, I wanted to be prepared. While my journey was safe and I had no issues, you also need to be smart! Don't leave the bag unattended and lock the pockets when you can. Don't swing the bag over your back where you can't see it either. The bag has a nice lengthy outside pocket with a lock. I used this for my cash as it made for quick and safe access. The two front button pockets close with magnets. I used these for lip gloss, a pocket mirror, ticket stubs, pocket maps and hand sanitizer. The bigger part of the bag has slots for your credit cards, passport, cell phone and two pens. It also has a zippered pocket inside. This bag was not small for me, as some of the other reviews mention but I also don't keep a lot of crap I don't use in my purse. I did fit the necessary items mentioned above plus a rolled up canvas shopping bag, sunglasses and the occasional pastry or bottle of beer. This locks too. It fits plenty! You don't want to carry a ton of stuff while exploring anyways. The back pocket fit my Kindle HD and larger city maps and tickets. The bag is durable, holds up well if a bit of water splashes on it and is comfortable on your shoulder. This travel bag will now become my daily bag. I got brown (see picture). Buy this for peace of mind when traveling, be smart and aware and have an amazing journey!

Love the thick & comfy-soft strap. Plenty of room without being bulky

Great bag. Lightweight and don't feel bulky when it's jammed pack with stuff. I had my passport, keys, a normal size fiction book, a wallet, a very small hairbrush, a hair band, a bottle of 500ml water, some tickets and cards, and two small boxes of souvenir (key ring and ear rings) in the main compartment; a pair of sunglasses in the compartment at the back; my mobile phone and leaflet in the zipped compartment at the front; a pocket size mirror, lip balm, a suncream stick and eye makeup in one of the small compartment at the front; a pocket size wet wipes in the other small compartment on the front. I normally wear my bags on my right side. I was a bit weary about wearing this bag in the left as this is the only option they have. However, because the shape of the bag just slot right against my body shape and so flat even with loads of stuff side, I didn't feel uncomfortable at all. Excellent bag for going on holiday.

Die Tasche ist sehr praktisch,handlich, geräumig und sicher.

This is an excellent bag and can hold all the important things close.

Schone und gut verarbeitete Tasche..Sie dürfte weicher sein was jedoch die Schnittsicherheit nicht erlaubt..passt super zu meiner Jacke und liegt gut am Körper ..Ich trage sie immer quer damit sie auf der Schulter hält..Tragriemen ist dafür lang genug..
