Anti-Theft Classic Messenger Bag

Well-made. Lots of security options. Not the most stylish option, but definitely the most sturdy and secure. Plenty of storage compartments and places to keep your travel items. Highly recommend for travelers who need that extra sense of security.

I am so please with this purse. I love the size, the pockets, the material is good quality, it's secure and has water bottle pockets. It's light weight and just the perfect size for me.

Strong but light weight , well made, good size for on shoulder or cross body. Nice easy to reach pockets. Nice style. Main section can be fastened to side to deter pickpockets( purse diggers). Priced very well in the dark tan color.

This is an ideal bag for traveling, particularly in locations where pickpocketing and theft is a concern. It is well made and quite sturdy. The bag has three sections: One section has space for credit cards and bills and is large enough to handle a small coin purse. The middle section is surprisingly spacious- more than sufficient to handle travel documents. I have also fit 2 collapsible umbrellas and a water bottle in it at one time. A third section provides additional space for glasses, maps, etc. Each section has a zipper that can be latched onto a small ring, making it even more secure. There are two zipper pockets, one on each side of the bag, that are designed to hold water bottles. I found this a tight fit, although a 16 oz bottle of water can be squeezed in with some effort, as could a small collapsible umbrella. I found the spaces more handy for sunglasses and hand sanitizer and dropped the water bottle/umbrella into the middle section. In addition to RFID protection, the adjustable strap is reinforced, making it virtually impossible to be cut. While some reviewers have complained about comfort of the strap, I did not find it anymore uncomfortable than any other crossbody strap. It's all a matter of how much you are stuff into it. Even stuffed full, it is still remains a nice size when sightseeing. It's size also makes it easy to drop into a tote, backpack or other personal item when required to "consolidate" personal items when boarding a plane. It's not going to win any prizes for style, but in terms of size, functionality and security, the bag is one of the best I have come across for travel. Mine has now made two trips to Europe and one to South America and the Caribbean and it still looks brand new.

Amazing. This purse is so comfortable and handy. You can carry everything you need and then some. I felt all my important things were protected. The water bottle holders only hold small bottle, but work well. Even full, it's comfortable to carry. Just the most perfect size.

I had a navy blue on for many years and it is still looks perfect but the hardware stated to open a little and was catching my clothes. When I bought this, I thought it would be a litter bigger, but it is the same. I have had Travelon for many years. I like the style, the pockets, the metal hook inside that I use to hook my wallet. I like how it looks nice despite the age. I like the security features.

In preparation for an upcoming business trip to Europe, I purchased both this bag and the Travelon Anti-Theft Classic Essential Messenger Bag because I couldn't decide between the two based on reviews and descriptions. After receiving both, examining all the pockets, slots, straps, and functionality, I returned this bag in favor of the Classic Essential Messenger Bag. I'll post a full review of that bag after my trip. For this bag, I appreciated the adjustable, slash-proof strap. As a larger woman, this strap adjusted more than enough to carry crossbody very comfortably. It also wasn't very heavy despite the anti-theft reinforcements. "Locking zippers" means that there are small eye-hooks stitched into seams that after sliding the zipper closed, you loop the end of the zipper into the eye-hook. They aren't easy or quick to UN-hook, but you don't have to use them when you don't feel it would be necessary but are reassuring to have for when you're waiting in long lines or at airports or are just going to be wandering around for a while and not be in and out of your bag that much. The fabric is just that, nylon fabric, but doesn't look as rugged as I was worried it would (at least not for the black version). It looks appropriately professional to carry to business meetings as well as touring around the sites. What really made me return this bag was the pocket configuration and interior space. There are four exterior pockets. Two are expandable side pockets for either water bottles or an umbrella (when expanded) or even a smaller cell phone or sunglasses when zipped to the smallest size. These are open pockets, so no zippers or fastenings at the opening. There is a smaller zippered pocket on the back. It's a narrower shallow pocket perfect for a cell phone or smaller items. The fourth pocket on the front has a locking zipper and also a flap that covers the zipper and stays closed with a small magnet. This pocket has a small mesh zippered pocket as well as credit-card slots. I've never found credit card slots useful in travel bags as I always carry a separate wallet, and in this case, the pocket doesn't open wide enough to make it comfortable to access cards if I did use them. Finally, the large interior pocket is much smaller than expected and much harder to access. Because of the configuration of the bag, the opening actually curves up on each side as it merges into the straps. This makes the functional opening about 2 inches narrower than the full width. The interior space itself only has four pockets, two on each side. At least two of those are RFID blocking, but they aren't very big - not big enough for sunglasses or even a passport. There is a strap with a small pocket light attached (that you could remove and use for your keys) that seems fine, but that's it for the inside. It's also unexpectedly narrow inside. To best illustrate how small it was, it was just the right size to fit an iPad 3 in a slim case, but that was it - you couldn't put anything else in with the iPad or use the pockets. It might be because of the exterior side pockets, but it was just too tight inside and awkward to get items in and out. In contrast, the Classic Essential Messenger main interior pocket has 2 pen slots, a sunglasses pocket, a zippered mesh pocket, the penlight on a clip, and two other slat pockets (one that is RFID blocking). I was able to fill all the pockets, drop in my iPad 3 as well as a small cosmetic pouch, manicure set, and a 3-oz. bottle of contact lens solution. And it was all easy to get in and out without difficulty. My larger passport and documents wallet fit in the front zippered pocket and my cell phone (iPhone 5 in an otterbox-like case) fits in the back zippered pocket. There's no place for water bottles or an umbrella, but it holds much more and is easier to access all items. Overall, it's an OK bag for everyday use, hence the three stars, but I think it's not as useful for more a multi-purpose bag while traveling.

Bought this purse for a 2 week trip to Italy. It was perfect! Loved all the locks. Purse was large enough to carry all my items and a little cardigan 5to cover my shoulders. The bottle holders were a huge bonus! Highly recommend if you will be traveling and want piece of mind.

Più piccola del previsto ma di ottima qualità

La bolsa de viaje no la he usado pero tiene toso lo que anuncian en internet, se ve que esta hecha de buen material , resistente al traqueteo de os viajes

満点です。 各ファスナーにフックが付いており、防犯面でとても安心できます。横には水筒が入れられ、自分のお腹側には貴重品を隠して持てる構造。真ん中の大きな収納部分も容量があり、物がしっかり入ります。 前部分のポケットは磁石でピタッと閉じる構造になっていて、大きさもあり使いやすさと安全性の両方を兼ね備えています。 一点だけ要望を挙げると、内側のお腹側ポケットの内側にDカンがあるといいなと思いました。カードやパスポートを入れられる仕様になっていますが、私は心配性なので、パスポートや小銭入れを紐でつなげられるようにしたいです。なので、内側にもDカンが付いていたらさらに完璧だと思いました。 バッグは肩から掛けたときの収まりが良く、体へのフィット感も抜群です。ショルダー部分もバッグ本体もナイフで切られにくい素材なので、防犯面でも非常に信頼できます。常に前側に持つことを意識すれば、安心して旅行を楽しめます。 このバッグは、今では私のお守りのような存在です。とても気に入ったので、主人のも同じメーカーで購入予定です。

Leí las reseñas sobre este producto y me lo estuve pensando. Después de haberlo utilizado en mi último viaje creo que ha sido una muy buena compra. Práctico, cómodo y seguro. Lo recomiendo sin duda.

Excelente calidad, muy espaciosa a pesar de ser pequeña le caben muchas cosas! Me encanta que le caben las botellas para el agua al costado!! Estoy muy feliz y satisfecha con esta compra!!
