Anti-Theft Heritage Tour Bag

This is exactly what I needed for several uses: 1. Daily Purse 2. Interpreting Bag 3. Conference Bag/Purse Pros: Holds more than you would think! Also, easy access to all compartments without having to remove from the body and/or hold a flap up to get into the main compartment. Cons: Has some weight to it, so can feel heavy fairly quickly. More Information: 1. Daily Purse- I often will just take a small card wallet and my phone if I am running around town, but any time that I need to take a purse with items in it, I grab this bag. I am able to easily carry my 10-inch Samsung tablet, which I use to read articles (Ph.D. student) or play a game of solitaire anytime I need to wait. With kids, I am often waiting to pick them up and this has come in very handy. I often like to also have a drink with me, and the side pockets work great for this. I also will use the side pockets for my sunglasses (plastic $5 pair) for easy access. 2. Interpreting Bag- I am a sign language interpreter. I will need to travel to different places to provide interpreting services in a variety of settings. This bag looks very professional. I am able to wear it cross body, which allows my hands (and arms) to be free to sign. I love that it has the drink holders so that my drink is handy and quick. The top front pocket is large enough to hold my Samsung Galaxy 6 phone in an Otterbox (the heavy duty one), with no concern of it falling out. This makes it easy for me to check the information of where I need to be for the assignment, and/or quickly check information during breaks. Plus I am able to carry other things needed often when out for an entire day. 3. Conference Bag/Purse - I recently attended the International Moose Convention conference. I used this bag everyday! Again, with my tablet, and a travel keyboard, I was able to take notes during the meetings. I carried a soda and a Powerade so I had choices to drink. I was able to put my business cards, a travel pack of tissues, mints, cell phone/tablet charger, a couple of travel medicine cases, a pen, a highlighter, my tablet stylus, and a couple of other small odds and ends in the large front pocket. I reserved the top front pocket again for my cell phone (and sometimes individual's cards they handed me). In the back pocket, I had a zip lock bag with some flat beef jerky and would slide flyers that I received at the booths in there, or my name badge when I didn't want to wear it out around town. The main compartment I carried my tablet, my travel keyboard, a zip lock bag with sunflower seeds, the conference booklet (which was the dimensions of a tri-fold flyer though thicker), and a couple packages of peanut butter and cheese crackers. This still left room on the top for my sunglasses and other odds and ends that I may pick up. I even carried my husband's wallet a couple times, which is quite large/thick. Overall, this bag was a lifesaver. I was able to secure the bag to my chair at restaurants without being concerned that it would wander off. I looked professional, and yet had everything that I needed for the day. In fact, I was able to help out other conference goers by having some pain meds for a headache and some crackers for another that was hungry from missing a meal. Many asked me where I got the bag and was happy to tell them to find it on Smile.Amazon so that they could also support the Moose through their purchase! In general, I really really like this bag. I only wish it was a bit lighter from the beginning. The weight of this bag is a bit more than many travel bags that are made out of parachute or tent material. But to me, the extra weight for the quality and look of this bag is worth it.

Why did you pick this product vs others?: We are traveling to Italy and I wanted a purse that would carry my ipad, phone, water bottle, and an umbrella. I love cross body bags too as they allow me to "carry" my purse in different ways...with a handle, across my body, or over my shoulder. This bag is large enough for all my travel needs (guide book, hairbrush, sunglasses, etc.) and yet it isn't so big as to be a bother. Security features: The great locking compartments. RFID blocking pocket for passport, credit cards, etc. Travelability: Easy to carry. Easy to find specific items (passport, drivers license, hotel key, etc.). Great compartments for organization. Pockets: It holds my ipad! A water bottle and an umbrella in the side pockets. Size: Love the secure features, RFID pocket, slash proof sides and bottom, and super long adjustable slash resistant strap. Durability: Well made, sturdy, but still attractive.

I love this bag. It has quickly become my everyday carry. The pockets are deeper than they appear, and the organization is genuinely practical. I can easily carry two bottles of water in the zip-away side bottle pockets, with plenty of room inside for everything else. There is a zippered pocket to secure smaller items, an open slip pocket for quick access, and a generous main compartment. I carry a long wallet for cash and ID, plus a separate card wallet for debit, credit, gift, and rewards cards, along with wipes, a pen, a nail file, clippers, and whatever else ends up in there on a given day — all without it feeling stuffed. There is still room to spare. In fact, I could probably fit a change of underwear if necessary. That is how functional it is. Despite holding quite a bit, it remains streamlined and comfortable to carry. The anti-theft features provide peace of mind without making the bag bulky or complicated. The adjustable strap allows me to wear it low on the hip or cinch it higher depending on what I am doing. If I had to note one downside, it would be the thickness of the strap. The added width is clearly part of the security design, so I understand the tradeoff. Also, if the strap twists and the buckle lands directly on my shoulder, it can become uncomfortable, but that is easily solved by flipping the strap so the buckle faces outward. It transitions effortlessly from errands to travel, and it feels sturdy and well made. If something happened to this one, I would replace it without hesitation.

This is very casual looking bag, but quite functional. It has many features I was seeking, but some drawbacks too. First off I really like that there is a grab handle on the top as well as the strap. I wish more bags offered that. How often are you grabbing the bag off the passenger seat of the car, or while it rests at your feet. The strap, particularly if you have it really long so you can wear it crossbody, is a little awkward for that. I like the outside pockets since when I'm out and about I often want to stash a receipt or grab a coupon quickly without wading through the main compartment. It's also handy for passport and ID that you want to have handy when traveling. Nice that the zippers can be secured easily so the contents are safer in a crowd. Sometimes I want to carry an umbrella just in case and like the side pockets for that. I like being able to get at my credit card or phone quickly from the provided front pocket, although there are is only one inner pocket that could serve to hold cards. I prefer several slots for different cards and ID and don't like to have to retrieve the full load to sort through, so that is a negative for me. The interior fabric is attractive, but I found it caught too easily in the zipper in a couple of place. The zippers are not quite as smooth as I'd like either. Okay though. I very much like that the strap is webbed material that is sturdy, but also good at staying on your shoulder if you want to carry the bag that way. Mostly I can't use a shoulder bag because the straps are constantly slipping off my shoulder. This bag stays put because of the added grip of the strap material. I wanted the crossbody length strap but appreciate that I can also carry the bag on my shoulder when I want to. I appreciate the key fob which includes a tiny light and value the additional pockets inside the main compartment. The bag is big enough to carry my Surface Pro tablet with keyboard. That was one thing I really wanted. It isn't deep enough to zip closed with the tablet in there (10x13" screen) but is transportable without having to carry the tablet separately. The bag is lightweight and doesn't add much to the load which is a good thing, particularly if I'm carrying the little computer. The suade accents on the gray bag especially are really good looking and add a flair of quality to the bag's casual material. It's the sort of material that will probably get roughed up over time like a pair of jeans, sort of, but that sort of adds to the appeal. The bag certainly is great for travel, but also good for every day, particularly for something like going to a festival or concert where you might want to carry snacks and a water bottle plus an umbrella and feel all is secure as well.

I recently used this bag on a nearly month-long trip around Great Britain, including larger cities such as Edinburgh and London, where pick-pocketing is a concern. I went back and forth between this bag and a similar PacSafe - mostly, I do prefer how PacSafe uses cables in the cross-body strap - but ultimately chose this one because I preferred the tweedy-looking fabrics, as well as the pair of side pockets. Because I am currently healing up from a leg injury and was traveling with a folding cane - in some places where the cane was too awkward to use because of cramped spaces or too many people, the folded-up cane easily fit in one of the pockets over a short time. Also, the pockets were a good place to put our digital camera - it's a small camera so it fit snugly and deeply in the pocket - for quick access without being forced to open and close the bag. Additionally, the zipper locks here are a little more straightforward than PacSafe's - still difficult for a pickpocket to maneuver, but not so difficult that I was going to have a hard time using them! I was very pleased with this bag. It holds a surprisingly large amount of small items. As we traveled between cities, I would have my passport in a case, a Kindle, my smartphone, my travel wallet, two folded reusable Envirosax bags, and a dual strap Cho-Pat for my knee in the main compartment and slip-in pocket. (For day-to-day usage, the Kindle and passport case stayed behind in the hotel safe.) The zip-up pocket held tissues and room keys, and the front pockets held all sorts of small things I needed handy like an Oyster card, cough-drops, and some travel wipes. The back pocket was the perfect location for my glasses and sunglasses (held in microfiber bags, not hard cases). I also had printed-out tickets - folded in thirds - in the slip-in pocket, and they were very easy to slide in and out when necessary. While I note some people had problems with hardware breaking, I did not have that problem. Nothing I carried was overly heavy or bulky, though - I never tried to carry our iPad into this - because I can't really carry a heavy bag anyway with a shoulder injury. I feel if you want to carry more items, you should probably up-size to a full messenger bag or backpack that has more interior volume. This bag is designed to carry your small/slender day-to-day essentials, so if you are looking to cram a lot of items into a small bag, I don't think I'd recommend this bag. I fully concede it doesn't have a lot of expansion room as far as the width goes. But I don't think that's what this bag was designed for, so I don't necessarily see it as a negative for the design - you just need to grasp that the design is for smaller items, not heavier-duty use. (We each traveled with an overhead-bin sized roller-bag and a Small Catalina Deluxe bag from Lo & Sons - the latter bags took care of toting electronics and cords and other miscellaneous "stuff" when we were either flying or on a train.) Wearing this bag across the body was quite comfortable, and the loop handle was also very comfortable in the hand when I switched to using that on occasion. My worries about the cable not being in the cross-body strap were pretty unnecessary - while this lacks a cable, it is a very sturdy and thick strap - there is no way it wouldn't take many, many swipes with a small knife for the strap to be cut. And the strap hardware was just complicated enough that it would be difficult for someone to undo discreetly without my noticing it. It was also pretty easy to unhook and wrap this around a table leg or through some bench slats if I was worried about someone grabbing it if I wasn't paying 100% attention to the bag at all times. I also appreciated the small flashlight inside. I ended up using it in some small dark spaces, so it was surprisingly useful to have. And one or two of our boutique hotels gave us actual room keys, so it was nice to have a strap to attach those keys to. It hangs deeply into the bag, so I never felt like keys were at all vulnerable to accidentally falling out. I am very pleased with my purchase and am not regretting buying this over a similar PacSafe. My main goal in a travel bag was something that would allow me to carry several small items with a little bit of room for other small items. It was more than up for the task.

I just got this, so I can't speak to the durability of the item, but I am very pleased with what it looks like out of the box: lots of zipper pockets, several zipper locks to prevent theft, good size for being out and about in Europe (I hope!), mesh side pockets for a water bottle and umbrella, rugged fabric, good value for the price, etc. I have owned a smaller Travelon bag for several years (bought for a trip to Europe for a teenager and then took it for myself) and it has been excellent for US travel and outings around town when I want something lighter than a full-sized leather purse. I'm extremely positive about the Travelon brand. Possible minuses: this bag is a bit heavy (but commensurate with fabric type, size and number of compartments) and you CAN'T MACHINE WASH OR DRY DUE TO RISK OF DEACTIVATING RFID PROTECTION. I normally like to machine wash fabric bags, but in this case, I'm willing to just spot clean, given that I really do need this bag for a trip.

Heavy bag with not a lot of organization inside. It weighs 20 ounces - twice as heavy as the other Travelon bags I bought to compare. I liked the striped lining in this bag, and the use of suede leather for beauty as well as strength at stress points. But inside there was only 1 full-length zipper pocket and 1 full-length open pocket - no dedicated pocket for my phone or other smaller items. It is a lovely and well-made bag with great anti-theft properties, but it was not my favorite. I sent this one back to Amazon .

I've had this bag a couple of years now. It's been on multiple trips with me both domestic and international. I stopped using it as my daily because I wanted to make sure I extended its life as my designated travel purse. Ive recommended this to friends and fellow travelers. I always get compliments and many have stated that they wished they had one. The zippers are strong and the antitheft latches have never failed me. Ive washed this bag in a laundry bag, in cold water, gentle cycle and left to air dry. It washed really well and stayed in tact. I highly recommend this bag for anyone wanting to travel. My favorite part about the bag is the 2 water holder compartments that can be zipped up and tucked away when not in use. The designer thought of everything in this bag. I fit so much into this bag, I sometimes have to rethink and repack because it can weigh me down. Out of all the bags I've seen and researched this is the bag for me. Not only practicaland stylish, it's very comfortable to wear for long periods of time. I have recently come back from a trip and saw a woman wearing her new purchase (same bag). I approached her to discuss how great the purse was. She didnt seem to be as excited about the bags functionalty as I was, which told me she hadnt worn it much. By the end of our 9 day tour, the same woman approached me and thanked me for giving her my appreciation of the bag. She fell in love with during the course of our trip. Her travel buddy and my travel buddy ordered one each! I want another but would like to see an expanded color selection. I'm sure the seller is working on this as prices of the bag have skyrocketed, so Im sure there is money in the pot now to expand on color variations. If you're looking for the best travel bag on the market, this one is it. Safe Journey Fellow Travelers😃👋

The little strap that sealed the deal for me, to buy this bag, turned out to be the first thing that seems to rip. the little strap is sewn at 2 ends. Well after continuously wearing this for about 3 weeks, the strap starts to fray on 1 end. At first I thought it's just a thread, then I noticed it's getting loose (as in no more weave). So disappointing. Everything else is good too. Just wish this bag could've been made better.

Sac parfait pour voyager! J’ai pu ranger documents, passeports, maquillages, médic, bouteille d’eau, etc. Sécuritaire avec les protections pour fermetures éclairs, sangle épaisse et assez longue et large pour être confortable. Poignée à main pratique. Petite lumière Led à l’intérieur avec pochette protectrice anti-vol. Poches de côtés assez large pour bouteille d’eau (2x), lorsqu’elles sont ouvertes. Le sac n’est pas léger, puisque tissu en toile solide doublée avec tissu soyeux rayé. Ce n’est pas un tissu extensible, donc à pleine capacité, ne s’expansionne pas! Donc il faut s’abstenir de le remplir pleine pleine capacité! Bon achat qualité/prix.

I love a cross body bag and this doesn't disappoint. I used have a large Radley but it is not big enough for an Ipad. The TRAVELON TOUR fits an IPad pro 9.7 easily, along with my Bose headphones in their pouch, There are loads of pockets and zips and mine has a dog clip to attach keys to so they can't fall from the bag - genius and, wait for it... a torch too! I really wanted a black colour for commuting to work (but its not a colour option) but the Pewter is smart and DOESN'T look like a camping accessory in the office which was a concern before seeing it. I read some negative reviews about strength of clasps I could see if it was too full it would put pressure on the clasps so I choose not to over fill it. The Zip which goes round the corner is a little resistant (there is only one corner) but I have found a quick technique to pinch the corner and pull zip round so this is not an issue for me.

could be unisex. nice casual style in a army canvas type fabric. great for traveling. bit heavy and shoulder strap is wide so narrow shouldered women be warned but all in all a great bag.

Es una bolsa práctica, segura y bonita; el look aunque es un poco informal al ser de material canva, es lucidor
