Ordered for a trip abroad. It is wonderful and roomy. Plenty of places to store things and the latching zippers a real plus. Definately worth the money

I love this purse. I bought it to replace one just like it that I am tired of. It holds everything I normally carry in a purse. I get compliments on it frequently. It’s a nice size, not too big and not too small. I like the fact that the strap can be opened on one end. I wrap the strap around the shopping cart handle and click it back on the purse. It’s a safety clip that needs to be opened in several steps. That way, if someone wants to grab my purse they will end up with the shopping cart as well!

I have had my Travelon bag for many years. I am traveling with a friend that does not have anything like this so I bought one for her. I liked it so much. I just bought a second one for me.This bag has a lot more pizzazz and doesn’t look so boxy as the one I had before that I do like. This is a crescent shape, and there is plenty of room and pockets to separate all of your essentials, such as a wallet, a passport, make up items, even a small umbrella or iPad can fit in the bag .The two main compartments have the clip on lock. The ones in the front and back of the purse do not but they do have a zipper or a snap. This makes it easy to put your absolute essentials like your wallet in the part that you could lock in case somebody tries to pickpocket you in case someone tries to pick pocket you!The strap is very thick, which is important when you are traveling so somebody cannot come back and cut your strap and it slows wear and tear on the bag. You cannot go wrong with buying this bag even as an every day bag because it looks so nice as well as functions the way it’s supposed to.

I just returned from our trip to Europe, where we were often in crowds and often on public transportation. This purse is large enough to carry the essentials, while being easy to carry. It fits well in the cross-body position and has an easy access (lock-able) for the phone on the front. The two pockets with flaps were great for holding hotel keys and tickets. I was even able to carry a small umbrella within the purse.The fabric is durable and pretty. I could not recommend this travel purse more highly!

I bought this for our trip to Haiti which is densly populated and currently very dangerous. I wanted a purse large enough to hold everything I needed, safe and secure for our belongings while remaining concealed. It is a little larger than I thought, but it is perfect! It has so many compartments for cards, different pockets for different currencies, locking compartments and easy access pockets for items like your phone. Then left open you can easily toss a 500ml water bottle in there as well. The material is a little stiffer than I'm used to however it is very durable, easy to clean and a safety feature. The step is fully adjustable and the purse contours the body nicely. Shortening the star allows the purse to be concealed under a jacket. I will be buying one for my sister as well!

Great bag. Lightweight and don't feel bulky when it's jammed pack with stuff.I had my passport, keys, a normal size fiction book, a wallet, a very small hairbrush, a hair band, a bottle of 500ml water, some tickets and cards, and two small boxes of souvenir (key ring and ear rings) in the main compartment; a pair of sunglasses in the compartment at the back; my mobile phone and leaflet in the zipped compartment at the front; a pocket size mirror, lip balm, a suncream stick and eye makeup in one of the small compartment at the front; a pocket size wet wipes in the other small compartment on the front.I normally wear my bags on my right side. I was a bit weary about wearing this bag in the left as this is the only option they have. However, because the shape of the bag just slot right against my body shape and so flat even with loads of stuff side, I didn't feel uncomfortable at all.Excellent bag for going on holiday.

I do love the Travelon product, however I ordered this one when the smaller Travelon bag I ordered, basically fell apart. I was very disappointed, no...p_s_s_d, because I was replacing the identical bag I had bought a few years ago, it was the perfect size, right amount of pockets, even held my Kindle and my Note 5. I bought a new one, because after a few years of nearly daily carrying, it finally looked like I gad been carrying it everyday for years! I was not happy at all when the new one just fell apart at the seems, literally. I tried to return it, but they said I had exceeded the time, by a few days. So, instead of getting the same thing, I picked this bag. It is solid, well made, not like the previous. I only wish the zipper zipped from bottom to top, instead of other way around and I wish the front pockets were big enough for easy access to my phone, without going into a zipper pocket. The credit card slots are not in a very intuitive spot either, in fact, what good is anti-theft-anti-scan technology, if you can't even get to your cards in the first place? I do like the snug design & adjustable straps, I am able to ride the motorcycle with my purse on me and my tablet-Note 10"-barely fits in, it is a real stretch, but I can get it in, Overall, great bag- love the anti-slice straps, too! Great for airline travel, looks good enough to carry for business or for concerts, shows. I feel extra secure, carrying this purse in Boston, I can also conceal a weapon, taser or pepper spray for easy access, when the time calls for it.

First thing I want to say is that I'm not a purse person. I wear a wallet and chain 90% of the time. I started working at a new company that has business dress instead of casual (no jeans) and suit pants don't go with a wallet and chain! I needed a purse, but I wanted something that would be comfortable to wear and carry a few things. I had a small Passport travel wallet that was doubling as a purse, but I really needed a little extra to carry my phone, medicine, feminine hygiene products and the occasional makeup item for when I'm at the office and need to touch up.Lots of little pockets, security, and not too big, but fits so many things! It even has a little light attached inside so you can search your bag in the dark! The main compartment zips open wide allowing you to rifle through the purse more easily, and there are so many little pockets for things. Most of the zips secure to prevent pickpockets, and the bag is designed to be worn across the body, wearing it as a shoulder bag will likely cause it to slip off the shoulder (and isn't very secure as someone can just snatch it).The little touches of someone who actually USES a purse, this had to be designed by a woman. Hahaha.I would say you could easily fit a medium sized handbag worth of items in here, I was surprised! I don't have much to carry, but I wanted to stuff this with everything I can possibly use I could easily fit just for this review:A pair of trouser socks, 3 tampons and 2 slim pads, foundation, compact mirror, blush, blush brush, pressed powder, lip gloss, liquid eyeliner, mascara, small eye shadow compact combo, a small travel hairbrush, my phone, nail clippers, nail polish, two bottles of medicine, small travel container of hair product, small travel bottles of shampoo and conditioner, small bottle of perfume, travel sized container of deodorant, a change of underwear, a sleep mask, a pair of thin knit leggings with a thin knit tunic top, and I would still have the little pockets for other things to slip in there!
