I got this purse for a trip to Italy and it worked out great! Its a little heavy (I think from all of the security features, slashproof straps, etc) but I was ok with the trade off knowing that my belongs would be safe and secure! I also like that it has a short shoulder strap or crossbody. Definitely a worthwhile purchase!

I had 2 major issues with this bag. The first, the zip on the front packet was not sewn right and therefore would not close properly. This is my biggest issue with the craftsmanship of this bag. Otherwise, this bag is made so well and felt like it would hold up great on an extended trip or for everyday use. My other issue is that this bag came dirty. I would be okay sending this bag back for an exchange because overall it seems like a great, light traveling, which is exactly what I wanted for, but it is a little smaller than I would have liked. I was also concerns about the ease of getting things in and out of the bag because the main entrance is kinda of narrow. This really is a great bag, just disappointed at the condition it came in. Would definitely buy again.

I purchased the indigo bag and got it used from Amazons warehouse. It said it was in very good condition but repackaged. I assumed someone got it and just didnt like the color/size. 10 bucks less it was a great deal. What showed up is not what I expected. While the bag Im sure will work for my trip I wish I had gotten the new one. Its extreamly worn out and has lint balls all over it that I now have to remove from it being washed before it was repackaged. There is also food crumbs all over the 2 zipper pockets. I wouldnt of concidered this bad in "very good" condition. This was my first time purchasing used and I cant say I would try it again...aside from all that I like the size but might be returning for a new one vs a used one

Do I love this bag too much? Possibly. I bought three Travelon bags (the other two: 3 compartment crossbody and signature hobo) because its so hard to tell from pictures and descriptions which will be the best. As soon as I laid eyes on this, I knew it was the one! The quality is fantastic, its adorable, and the size is perfect. I would use this bag even without all the anti-theft features. Its barely tall enough to fit my 20 oz Camelbak bottle, but a regular water bottle would fit perfectly inside.There are four major compartments, plus the zippered RFID pocket inside the main compartment (I missed one in my pictures). I wish the RFID pocket was a little bigger because my wallet doesnt actually fit in it. The straps are wide and comfortable. The bag is soft and super cute! Its cool that it comes with two different length straps. You just have to decide before you go out which length you want. I usually opt for the crossbody because I like my hands totally free. But the shorter one is great to have. The size of the bag is perfect for me. Im only 51" so big bags look weird on me. This bag is fairly spacious but not at all too big. And I LOVE all the pockets! Hmmm, Im sure I have many more thoughts on this amazing bag, so feel free to ask me if you have questions!

I travel a lot, therefore I am quite picky when I choose the bag that I will relay on during the time I will be away. First I am looking for the " friendliness " of the bag, and yes, there is such a thing as an annoying companion even if it is an object. Then the size and then the price. But look, I am holding everything of importance in the bag and the bag is with me all the time, so yah I am looking for a friendly companion. I want my bag to stay on my shoulder, to balance comfortable when I move, not to scratch my hand with the zipper when I reach in, and to to force me into a war when I want to put something in. Well, this Travelon Anti-Theft Heritage Hobo is really nice and friendly. Is made of thick but soft canvas, so it does not have that nylon feel. It looks ready for adventure in a rugged but not overly sporty. You can wear it on the shoulder or over the body and it stays put balanced perfectly. The zippers are not attacking you when you reach in and there is no need to struggle to put things in or to take them out. Now about the size : is about perfect. You can put in a kindle , an I pad air, a travel organizer with with your passport ,a small camera, your " plus" size phone, chargers, make- up. and you still have room to play with ... and that is the main compartment only !There is another secured compartment in front that can hold your wallet and keys and whatever you use more often but need to be secured from wondering hands, in the back of the bag there is yet another compartment that can hold a book easily, a map , sunglasses, napkins, even an compact umbrella. I have the Pewter color and is quite pleasant, the insides are a nice material that does not get dirty easily and more important , is not of a color that makes you cringe when you look inside, because frankly "pink" is way overrated and other pastel colors are good for luggage. This is a bag .What I like the most about it is the way is compartmented and how practical it is , the size and feel and even the color. I would have liked the possibility of another material beside the canvas, but I think that I would have chosen the canvas anyway . I give it five stars !
