Travelon 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.

Sleek and good looking, seems secure and strong so far. Narrow and deep, but that’s good since it’s harder to pickpocket. Light and easy to carry. Water bottle holders seem quite small at first, but they actually unzip to fit two small bottles. This clever design keeps the purse slim and nice looking. Seems like it could be waterproof and easy to spot clean too. Very pleased, may get in more colors for additional travelers!

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.

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.

I bought this for a trip to Europe where I was visiting a number of countries. Also, since I was flying with Ryanair at times, I needed a bag that fit their handbag/small purse requirements. This Travelon bag was almost the right size, cloth so it was 'squash able' if needed. It is a full year since I purchased the bag and I have used it continuously, much to my own surprise. I like: 1. the clips for keys... I got into the habit of clipping my keys to the bag and it has been wonderful. No searching for keys. Handy when parking, running to stores and back. The only downside is when one needs to move quietly. Then the keys need to go inside the bag. Other items could also be clipped to the bag. For instance, I clip my earbud container to the bag when on the road. 2. The zipped pocket at the back where credit cards can be stored. Plenty of room for cards, money and loose change. 3. Front flap pocket - great for carrying easily accessible extras. I am lactose intolerant and can carry digestive tablets there. I also carried my folded ticket printouts or passport there when traveling. 4. The main compartment has loads of room, handy pockets for phones, tissues etc. I even fit my iPad (2) in there when I need to. Also had plenty of room for passports, small snacks etc. when traveling. 5. The strap is long and easily adjustable. I find it comfortable. I usually wear it cross body. I used the inbuilt security feature whereby one can attach the bag to a chair (or other) when traveling, while sitting at street cafes and found that feature very useful. It is also long enough that I can keep on my shoulder and rest the bag in the trolley (seat) when shopping. 6. the expandable mesh sides: ok for a small water bottle when needed. And it does need to be a small (12oz) bottle. I rarely use it for that but do make use of the side pockets for other small items (sunglasses, tissues) I need to have handy. I usually keep the pockets zipped up. These side pockets are probably the feature I use least but they have potential. For instance, a small bottle of prescription meds or similar should fit there quite securely. All in all, it is a great bag. I had intended it only for travel but find it so practical that I am still using it daily. I had thought it may be too small for daily use but not so. The variety of pockets, clips and sturdy strap allow for various subtle expansion options and its inbuilt organizational capacity makes up for what might seem like a small size. You cannot fit a huge amount in there but I was never one for carrying a lot in my bags. iPad, phone (2 when in Europe), money, credit cards, protein bar, chewing gum, daily meds, tissues, passport and tickets all fit when I need. That is enough for me. The only downside is that it is perhaps not the most attractive bag. I used always have nice colored leather bags and a leather purse/money/card holder... that gives you an idea of my tastes. They have sat unused since I got this travelon bag. The black nylon cloth has held up well... it looks as good today as it did the day I bought it... and the organizational advantages to me of this bag far outweigh any minor discomfort I felt with its look. I recommend it highly. It really works for me.

A little tight making it difficult to put necessary items (wallet, etc) inside. There is a nice pocket in the main compartment for my cell phones. The side pockets that the ad shows holding a water bottle it not accurate as the 16 oz. bottle don't fit

Just what I was looking for. I am petite so I was afraid the bag may be too large for me, but it's perfect. Love the locks for 2 zippers, the side pockets for bottled water, the multiple places to store items and the adjustable strap. High quality fabric feels like it will hold up to many trips. Looking forward to using it. Thanks Travelon!!

I was really worried about my first trip to Paris, and all the warnings about pick pockets there. This purse is awesome - all the zippers clip closed onto metal loops, making the contents extra safe. One side of the purse opens up for room to insert your different cards and passport (this makes it safer than having a wallet with all of your cards in it that can be easily lifted by a thief). The front pocket has a flap - I used this for my handkerchief, sunglasses and powerbank to charge up my phone throughout the day. The side has a mesh pocket, which perfectly held an umbrella. (There's another pocket on the other side for a water bottle, which I didn't end up using). The large main pocket was larger than I anticipated and held all kinds of things - camera, travel book, souvenirs and more, without being bulky. At first I thought it'd be too big, but it seemed just right and as a plus-sized woman, it fit comfortably across my body so that I felt secure. I love this purse - I took several rides on the Metro even, and no problems! If you're traveling, I highly recommend this purse - it's very safe & secure, comfortable to wear, looks nice yet has plenty of room for all the things you may need on vacation.

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.

Il est top, hyper pratique, water resistant (testé hier par temps de pluie), je le trouve moderne et classique à la fois. Je suis ravie de mon achat!
