TravelonAnti-Theft Heritage Small Crossbody Bag

Since I’m going to Europe I wanted a secure bag, and I definitely wanted to be safe from being pickpocketed . It’s a nice size bag to carry just your essentials. The straps were very sturdy, but did not feeling uncomfortable wearing! The bag material was very sturdy, yet it seems like it would clean easily.

I got this specific bag because I had been on the hunt for something anti theft, has a separate pouch that can fit a phone (separate from the main compartment), is not too deep (items get lost in the bottom), not too heavy (will hurt your neck and shoulder over time), and not too big (again, things will get lost and the bigger the bag, the more I will fill it).I have gone through a Sherpani, multiple Baggalini’s, and a few Travelon’s. Besides the Sherpani, they are all bags that I would use, depending on the circumstance. If I needed a small backpack for a track meet or event, I would use my Baggalini anti theft, but it’s too big to carry around for everyday use. The sling bag came close, but it was also bigger than I needed and I had to dig around too much for smaller items.I got the dark khaki-ish color (on clearance), and while quite ugly (IMO), it’s very nondescript and unlikely to be targeted for theft. So that’s a bonus.It fits my phone in the front zippered section, my mini calendar in the rear zippered section, my keys and AirPod case on the outside connected by carabiners, and inside the main compartment I can fit 2 lip glosses and a lip stick, a pack of gum, a plastic case filled with floss picks, a tissue packet, travel lotion, a mirror, my Benadryl tabs, my coach’s pass, and a travel perfume. And I put cash and my checkbook on the inside zippered section.That may seem like a lot, but I have had a whole lot more in other bags, which makes them heavy and cluttered. Anyway, the size is perfect with room to spare.I also like the ‘ruggedness’ of the bag. It feels well made. Only time will tell, but I’d get the blue bag of the price dropped. And if they make a black one, I’d get that too.

Just the right size for travel. Sturdy and stylish at the same time.

I am looking forward to using this when I travel. I like the number of pockets and how everything locks. It fits close to my body and does not stick out for when I am moving through crowded areas.

VERY PRACTICAL. I ONLY HAVE TO CARRY WHAT IS NECESARY

I bought this purse for a recent trip to Paris and it worked out great! Although I didn't personally encounter any pickpocket attempts, I was on crowded metro cars and felt better knowing I had taken good measures to secure my valuables and at the same time kept a watchful eye out with a hand on the top of my purse. All the clips worked great, no problems.

I purchased this purse for the RFID factor. From my understanding, RFID is supposed to protect your key fob signal and phone signal by blocking the transmission so thieves cannot steal your information or car. This purse did neither. I put my key fob in the center, large pocket and walked up to my car and I was able to open it without taking the fob out of the closed pocket. Next I had a friend call my phone while in the large center pocket. My phone rang. With that said, I lover everything else about this purse. The crossbody strap is easy to adjust. The zipper clips are easy to clip on and off the D ring. I can put my iPhone Pro Max in the angled zipper pocket easily along with a lip gloss. The side zip without the locking zipper is handy. The center pocket holds a long wallet, my sunglasses in the small slip in holder. In the other slip in holder, my lipstick, hand sanitizer, and pen. I could even put some more smaller things in the side holders. The color is true to the picture on the web site. It is light weight and I think it will be easy to wash. So, 3 stars because I love the size and functionality of the purse. If I was buying it for the RFID protection only, 1 star.

Perfect crossbody for traveling
