4.0 out of 5 stars Great travel bag!, July 9, 2010

This review is from: Pacsafe Slingsafe 200 Anti-Theft Sling Purse, Black (Apparel)

I ordered this bag for a trip to South America after doing a great amount of online research about travel-safe bags. I usually carry a pretty decent-sized purse for everyday use, so I wanted a travel bag that could hold a sweater, a travel guide, sunscreen, and the usual purse stuff (wallet, etc were in a money belt).

This bag didn't disappoint. It's pretty sleek and doesn't stand out, which was nice. Despite looking like a pretty compact bag, it has lots of room to cram in all my travel stuff. I have even been using it as an everyday bag since i got back home. The travel safety features are great -especially the extra loop that lets you secure the flap that folds over the two zippered sections. I kept my guidebook in the non-secured velcro pocket on the back of the purse, so I didn't have to open the secure flap to get out my map, etc.

Easily adjustable strap was pretty comfortable, materials seemed good quality and overall seems like a well-made bag.

Only two complaints - as other reviewers have said, I had some issues with the main compartment zipper getting stuck from time to time. I added a safety pin to prevent me from opening the zipper all the way, which avoided this problem, but it is a pain if you are at a store and your zipper is stuck open and you have to fiddle with the bag a little bit to get it closed and move on.

Also, because you can unhook the purse strap and connect it around a chair, etc while you're dining (great feature by the way, also made it easy to attach my water bottle loop to the purse!), the strap can get a little twisted, making it a little uncomfortable on your shoulder. I just got used to untwisting the strap before I put it on, not a big issue.

Overall, the good quality of the bag and the comfort I gained from knowing my bag had the security features built in were worth the purchase. I'll use this bag again for travelling in the future.

This bag is ok. It is really flat. I love the steel mesh feature of this line of products. The only thing I really don't like about this bag is that when I unzip it the zipper gets stuck on the side and can be a hassle to get back out to zip up again.

4.0 out of 5 stars Travel purse, June 28, 2009

Bought this purse to travel to Egypt at the recommendation of a friend. I have been disappointed. Not enough purse for the money. The hanging loop on the inside frayed and had to be cut off, it does not have enough pockets and a wire in the slashproof handle has begun to poke me even though the purse is just two weeks old.
