Questions & Answers

A thief might be able to just take it over your head, so how do you prevent him from doing so?

You should only place non-geographical information IF that's what you're concerned about Pack your essentials in your bag and wear a body pouch under your clothes with your documents, cards, cash, etc. There is nothing that can stop it from being stolen. Wearing it under a vest or jacket is my preferred way to wear it

Is there adequate room for an umbrella and bottled water in this bag?

It is the first time I have tried to carry either in the bag since I have never attempted that before. The answer to that is "Yes.". "I got my bag, put a small bottle of water (the size of the $1 ones you get in the deli. folding umbrella, which I have been carrying in my regular bag for two years). Their compartments were in the central part of the ship. Afterwards, I tossed my bulky sunglasses in a case and placed my reading glasses on top. There's plenty of room for a passport or whatever else you need. My cell phone goes in the front pocket of the jacket. Besides a credit card, metro card, driver's license, and a #20 bill, there is also space for my credit card, Metro card, and metro card. (I would not want to carry around my bulky wallet if I had an umbrella and water bottle). Now that I have the two long pockets, I can- There are two pockets, one above each of the two front pockets and one at the back. It is certain that I will keep my mirror, lipstick, eyedrops, pen and whatever else in the long pocket on the front of the jacket. Unfortunately, there has been a catastrophe My Kindle isn't where I want it to be. All other things aside from the Kindle are unnecessary to me. I'm in awe. Pockets in the back of the jacket have enough room for an e-reader. Having done the test, I am ready to move forward. After all of this stuff is inside the bag and all compartments are closed, the bag does not appear bulky nor is it excessively Furthermore, you'll be able to get more stuff - The tissues and the checkbook are nearby. You asked a good question, and I appreciate it. The good news is that it is quite easy to do and quite comfortable as well.

How big is the bag inside? Can I fit my iPad inside it?

There are likely to be room for a mini iPad, but you won't be able to carry anything else oversized. In all likelihood, an iPad of normal size would not, especially if it is covered with any kind of protective case.

Does it have metal in its construction? Have you ever experienced problems with TSA?

It passed through the TSA screening fine, though we had to empty it at the airport because of thin metal strips in the straps to make it difficult for a thief to cut and run with the bag. I am sure that the TSA is familiar with the bag.

This is the best travel bag I have ever used! Travel bags like this are amazing
5/5

There are so many bags out there, but this is by far the best one I've ever seen. Two of the main compartments are locked with zippers (be sure to check out my photos) and the bag strap stays in place. I will be able to keep all of my belongings I also appreciate the fact that the straps can be adjusted so one shoulder can be worn or they can be extended for full body wear (see You can store a lot without it feeling bulky thanks to its shape. This is the bag you need if you travel!.

A head-to-head matchup between crossbody and crossbody
3/5

There is a Classic Messenger feature. My order for the Travelon Crossbody and Classic Messenger was placed on Amazon. During my travels to Europe, I have been pick pocketed before, so I needed a bag that was functional, secure, and appropriate for daytime and nighttime. The reviews I read and the research I did convinced me to purchase this product. As far as top choices go, these two stand out. There are pros and cons to both bags. I like the fabric. It is easy to clean, and the straps are easily adjustable, so you don't look like they are cupping your bra inappropriately! It holds more than you think (although dependant on how you look at it, crossbody holds less than messenger)** Secure features are great***Cons of It rubbed uncomfortably on my short frame as I walked around the house with it, since the curve on the side is too high. You can adjust the straps as well. It might be better for taller people (I am five feet four inches tall). With it, I fit my kindle, book, wallet, and nothing else at all. A lot of maneuvering was required to get into those items. If you want to carry anything else with a little bulk, you'll have no choice but to go through this bag. Even though the fabric is easy to clean, it does fall off the shoulder easily, so be sure to wear it crossbody when going out. I did not like the method of carrying, or the lack of space available in it, in general. There was also the concern that even though the bag has a little space, it would take a lot of time to use the front pockets, and the magnetic closures weren't durable enough to protect my valuables. The details can be seen in the photos.

I agree, very well said
5/5

The software is well-made and features a lot. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw this thing in person. Perhaps I didn't notice all the features before ordering it, but it has a light clipped inside to prevent people from digging around (which you can also use to clip your keys to) and both zippers in the main compartment clip to another part to prevent anyone from opening them accidentally. All of the insides of the bag are padded nicely, making it like a laptop bag. I think it could easily fit an iPad mini within. It is super well made, so it is extremely durable. I was able to fit my passport and 4 credit cards nicely in the RFID compartment once it was made. Additionally, the zipper for the main compartment actually zips all the way down the one side of the bag, allowing it to expand to accommodate searching for things. Whenever I go looking for something I think I may have only this purse that doesn't become a bottomless pit of confusion and loss. I am actually going to upload pictures of all the parts of this bag and give a more detailed review because I like it so much. As you can see in the pictures There are two pockets with magnetic fasteners/buttons on the front of the bag that could easily accommodate a phone of a standard size. I took two photos of the zippers clipped directly to the bag itself, in two different compartments one on the front of the bag above the two magnetic pockets, and another on one side of the bag (which zips all the way down). There are 5 slots for passports and credit cards inside the main compartment, as well as a light clipped on. You will find two pen pouches and an inner zipper pocket in the bag. Lastly, there are two open sleeves on the interior, one which I can fit my whole hand into (and probably a can of Coke or a baby bottle as well) and the other is very narrow, I could only get my fingers into it up to my knuckles. One side of this bag has another large zippered pocket that does not have a clip to secure the zip, since it is clearly intended to be worn.

While traveling, this is a great purse that will give you some peace of mind
5/5

A trip to Europe took me to Europe so I was in need of this purse in the two pocket style, in midnight. I found this purse to be very useful, both for how much storage it provides as well as for the peace of mind It was common for us to end up crammed into crowded subway cars with strangers, shoulder to shoulder with each other. Though I was nervous and uncomfortable for the obvious reasons, I would have been much less so if the purse hadn't been there. Because the clipping zipper pockets were attached to my purse, it gave me some peace of mind that my wallet and cellphone would be harder for someone to simply grab from it. There are clips on the majority of the pockets (except the two on the front) so you can secure the zipper, hopefully making it easier for you to notice if someone is trying to steal from you. This innovative purse has an adjustable cut-resistant strap that makes it easy to wear and easy to close. I could wear the purse under my coat if necessary because it had plenty of space but was still flat enough so that I could fit a lot of things in it. If you're going on a trip, I definitely recommend it.

It has a poor quality build (see pictures)
3/5

Six months after it was built, it began to crumble. A year after purchase, the product is totally useless. It is cheap to buy buttons and zippers. This bag left me very disappointed. As far as travel bags go, it was a very good one while it lasted, but it did not last A magnetic button on the front of the device fell apart after 6 months of use I became unable to use the main zipper after one year (see the I am unable to get into or secure the main compartment, so it is now unusable. It would have been extremely nice to get more than 1 year out of the bag, but nothing these days is built to last. Another cheap bag with a very limited life before it breaks and falls apart has been found to be the Travelon bag. I suggest buying from a different manufacturer instead.

THOSE IN THE SECOND BAG WERE OF NO USE
3/5

Despite the fact that this bag has a lot of compartments, zippers, and pockets, the second one that I bought was terrible. A few times out, the main zipper broke almost immediately (after sticking out first), and the inside zipper broke before that. The outer zipper was also pretty worn after a bit as well. In the end, I threw it away. There were about six months of it We were on the first trip for a long, long time, visiting Greece and returning to San Francisco, and going to Panama and returning to San Francisco twice. It, however, is of no use. As a result, I threw it away and got a travel purse from a Spending money on something that is not necessary is a waste.
