Great for traveling in Barcelona!
Used this on our trip to Barcelona. It was the perfect size to handle anything we needed to carry. The side water bottle, collapsible zip pockets were such a great addition – super handy! We felt very safe from pick pocketers and had no issues. Plus, it was easy to wear for either myself or my husband.

Holds more than I expected and has pockets to keep things organized
Fantastic bag that is stylish, and has enough strap length so it isn’t tight. The fabric is sturdy without being stiff or making the bag heavy to carry. I love the compartments and even carried my, and my daughter’s umbrella, in the side pockets while in rainy Edinburgh. A pickpocket tried going through my coat pockets when I was in Brussels. I believe that she thought the tissues in my pocket was something she could steal. However, this bag was strapped across my chest/stomach so it was not accessible to her. Mind you, I still kept a hand on the bag and wore it under my coat at times. I planned to only use it on trips outside of the country to keep my passport, credit cards, and phone secure, but am still using it now that I am home. It is definitely worth the price.

Great purse!
I love this purse! It has great features, it’s stylish and versatile. Wonderful value for your money. It has a pocket on each side that unzips to hold a water bottle on each side, it’s mesh so take care what you put into it other than a water bottle, keys etc can rip the mesh. When we go on the motorcycle, its great to take with us quickly and easily. I didn’t have to worry about the strap breaking because it has wire in the strap so won’t easily break. There is a key clasp built in, it holds my aldi quarter holder so I always have a quarter within reach. Didn’t get me started on all the other great security features like the slash resistance, water proof, thick material, locking compartments, RFID blocking on some pockets. I bought one of these purses at least 2 or 3 years ago, and I love it, it hasn’t fell apart yet but I anticipate some day it might so I purchased this back up, I don’t want to use any other purse after using this purse.

Well made! Highly recommend!
It’s a sturdy, deep bag. There were some reviews mentioning how it was hard to fit a water bottle on the side pocket. I am able to fit a standard 16 oz plastic water bottle. It does, however, require a little finagling to get in though. Other than that, I do love the roominess and the pockets in the inside. There is also a good size pocket in the front and a back wallet pocket. Both the front, back and main zippers have the ability to latch/lock, which is a nice feature as well. The purse overall seems to be well made too. It is a bit heavy, but I think it’s due to the wire strap and the material in general is fairly thick. I am glad I purchased this and would recommend it to others who are looking for a deep purse that holds a lot.

Theft proof with locket pocket for passport and great for travel
Love this travel purse. It is large enough for travel necessities and has several compartments that lock. Also it prevents credit card scammers. Lightweight and perfect for traveling.

Great bag for travel
I have been wanting this bag for awhile to use on a trip I have planned overseas. When I saw this on sale on Prime Day I was so excited I scooped it right up and I am glad I did. Very well made and the anti theft features are REAL – there is no way that anyone will be able to grab this bag easily.I also fits comfortable across my body when worn. You can adjust the length easily. Works perfectly for me.There is also a lot of storage. Many times the bags designed for travel do not give you much space for the things you will want to carry but not this bag. It has a place for everything.I strongly recommend this bag.

Roomy but the strap starts to hurt after a few hours
I purchased two bags for our 5 day trip to Washington, D.C – one for Mom & one for me. I was very excited to try it out after reading the reviews. We both used our bags for a week prior to the trip, to get use to them and do any adjustments that were needed. The most I wore mine at one time was for an hour and it felt fine.For the plane trip to DC (almost 9 hours from start to finish) the bag was great. It fit my wallet, kindle, and other odds and ends. I was amazed at how roomy it really is and how much could really fit inside it. The next 4 days went fast, we were with a school tour – we started our day on the bus at 7:45 am and ended at 10:00 pm.The first day I took everything out of the bag that I wouldn’t need…so I only had my wallet, a small digital camera, chap stick and a 20 oz. bottle of water. Really not much at all. My mom did the same. After the first 4 hours of walking, the bag started to feel like a brick and was cutting into the top of my shoulder. I started to switch the bag from one side to the other. I noticed my mother was having the same problem. We ditched our water bottles on the tour bus and had lunch. At the end of the next 6 hours, I had both my mother’s bag and mine. I was wearing one on each shoulder crisscrossing over me. The straps were very uncomfortable and cutting into my shoulders. By the end of the first day,14 hours later, I had pulled both straps over my shoulders so that the straps were about halfway between my shoulder and elbow. That was the only way I could carry them. Putting them up on my shoulders was way to painful. That day we walked a total of 10 miles.The next 2 days I switched it all to a backpack – I had everything that was in my bag and moms plus the two 20 oz. waters and did just fine. We walked 10 to 15 miles each day.On the last day my mom and I switched back to the bag. The first 8 hours of touring and then to the plane ride home. We took our bags with us ONLY when we had to other wise we left them on the tour bus and carried our wallets and cameras. This worked but seamed to be a waste of the reason we got the bags to begin with.4 years ago I carried my purse through Disneyland for 5 full days from 9 am to 10 pm. I carried my purse with all sorts of STUFF. I carried it over my shoulder and across my. I NEVER had this much shoulder pain. So I know it has to be the bag.My mother has gone back to using the bag for short runs to the store ( where she will not carry it for very long) and she is going to get a cushion shoulder strap to help as she can not return hers. I am going to try to return mine. I will never use it for another trip.I gave it a 3 because I love the anti-theft idea and the fact that you can’t scan any cards through the bag. It is also a great bag if you do not intend to wear it for a long extended time. I will look for a travel backpack with the same features as I am sure that will be a lot more comfortable.
