Anti-Theft Classic Mini Shoulder Bag

I ordered both the purple and the berry pink with tulips. Trying to decide which to keep. I love the berry pink color with the tulips on it, it truly is unique. The purple is a nice deep color and will match a lot of outfits. Decisions, decisions! Which to keep? I have another Travelon purse that I have used for a year and have compared it to these for size. I thought you might like to see the size and compare the two different models. In the photos I have put them next to each other, also next to the other model and also included measurements and put one on top of the other. You have a lot to consider. My prior one is the Travelon Anti-Theft Signature Quilted Slim Pouch in Ocean blue. I ordered it a year ago. I have loved it and taken on lots of trips, and actually use it as my daily bag. The purple and pink purses are bigger. With multiple zippers and pockets, including RFID slide pockets inside. Know that it does not hold a water bottle but you could clip one to it. I typically also hang a little pouch of hand sanitizer on the outside of the purse to keep handy. One thing I love about the blue one I've had for a year is that I can easily fit it in the zipper pouch pocket of my LL Bean pullover when boarding a plane so it does not count as a personal item. This newer style purse is too big for that, as it would never fit in a pocket. You can wear this on your shoulder or as a crossbody. It has the locking zipper on the top opening. The nylon fabric is water repellent. It is lightweight and I think will be perfect for travel. With the additional size I will be able to fit in my portable charger, passport, id, credit cards, tissues, masks if needed, lip gloss, a pen and other small items. It of course has the attached little light inside. And with a bright color, I would easily see if someone is attempting to slide their hand into it. Either color also would look lovely in photos as I travel. I love Travelon brand purses and end up using them as a daily purse for my run around town life. I like that I do not have to choose boring black at all times. I do not think this screams tourist. Nor is it frumpy. Life is short, buy the purse you love and that makes you smile. I am looking forward to a few upcoming trips, domestic and international and this style purse is perfect. I caught these when they were on sale, which Travelon or Amazon seems to do periodically making it a great buy. I hope this helps you decide.

I bought this for my daughters a gift. It is very useful, especially if traveling or walking in city. I’ve purchased it twice before for international travels, it’s perfect for me. Plenty of pockets. Attached clips secure zippers, I wear it cross body. I love the safety strap. It helped greatly with peace of mind as I walked the streets of Greece and Italy. It’s a nice size, not too big or small, and sturdy, good quality. Great gift for a traveler and style is pretty simple.

I love the deep purple ( it will go with everything being a deep purple!)!! It has the protection and organized compartments I will need traveling or taking on any outing. It is great of quality & of light weight! So happy I purchased this a classy purse!! It is a perfect size and of good value!!

I bought this to take on a trip to a big city. Especially wanted the RFID protection and anti-theft attributes of this bag. The size is great. There is a pocket on the outside that seems to be perfect for a cell phone, but my phone was too tall. I could still use that section, but not the pocket. You need to be aware when you put your credit cards in the slots - they need to be "upside down" in order to protect the information strip. The strap of the bag detaches (I assume so you can attach your bag to yourself or other). I don't necessarily like that fact; however, there is a lock that at least would make it difficult to figure out in a rush. It takes some practice to remember to continually zip and lock all the safety features, but it becomes second nature. The bag is also slim, which makes it easy to fit inside other bags if you are flying. I got the nutmeg color which doesn't call attention to it.

Just received this purse after a lot of research. I wanted a smaller, lighter bag that I could use for a European trip. But I still needed storage for sun/glasses, Invisalign case/ phone/passport/CC wallet/lip balm/hand lotion. My ideal bag would be flat enough to slide in my carry-on luggage if needed.(airlines are getting strict about the1 carrry on and 1 personal item thing) When I opened my Amazon box I was surprised at the pretty color (midnight is a handsome blue with greenish tint) and it is indeed very slim. Bigger than I imagined but so well designed that it doesn't look bulky while wearing. Being able to lock the zipppers will be handy while moving through the airports or exploring towns. The slash resistant strap seems like it wouldn't slide of my shoulder if I want to wear it as a regular shoulder purse (my beloved Baggalini does). There are enough pockets but not too many to where I would forget what's where. And the nifty little light on a cord helps to see in your bag while in the dark (overnight in the plane!). So far I'm very much looking forward to using this cool and cute bag on our trip(s)

Planning to travel and wanted a secure purse with locks. I have been using it for one month now just to see if all of my things would fit. Just love all the pockets inside the main zippered compartment (lock) It is very deep inside to hold up my sunglasses, kleenex, lip balm, small note pad, pen, etc. The small zipper (no lock) I put my car keys in. The back side pocket (no lock) keeps my iPhone16 and has a lot more room. The flap side has a hidden zipper (lock) pocket that holds my wallet and passport perfectly. Easy to clean by wiping off any items. Best purse I have every purchased in 40 years of traveling.

This will be perfect for an upcoming overseas trip. It fits a regular size water bottle, several pairs of glasses, and has lots of zippered compartments for other items. I’m 5’10” and the long strap will be great for crossbody while traveling. The navy blue is a nice color. It feels well made and likely will hold up to lots of use. Great price on Amazon.

I have this purse both in Black (purchased Nov 2014) and Cranberry (purchased Aug 2015). I alternate between the colors, depending on occasion, and hands down it has become my daily go-to purse. As my pictures show, it is approximately 9” tall and 10” wide. If you are a person who likes to pack all of your worldly possessions, into your purse, and do not mind the weight of 10lbs+ of stuff digging into your shoulder, then I do not recommend this specific bag. It simply is not large enough to accommodate everything and then some. If you like the security features of the Travelon bags, you will need to look at their larger sized purses. However, for a small purse it has a surprisingly large amount of roominess in the main interior, which opens to about 3” wide, the zipper pocket (back side of purse), the smaller zipper pocket and zipper pocket with flap (both on the front side of purse) are all useful and roomy too. I use a skinny wallet (believe me it is packed) Vs a rectangular brick sized traditional wallet. Where the main compartment zipper opening is about 8” wide, there could be difficulties navigating a large wallet in/out of the purse. I carry my cellphone, pens, flashlight, tape measure (yes - you never know when you’re out shopping, if you’re going to need to measure something), lip balm, comb, food snacks, sunglasses, maps &/or tickets depending on the event. My purses (black or burgundy) have gone with me on vacation to Las Vegas, Acadia National Park, to work, out to dinner, etc. Wearing it as a cross body bag, I feel the purse is secure, is the right size for my daily needs and the additional slash-proof features, main compartment latch, adjustable shoulder strap length are all an added plus. I’ve had my black purse for almost a year and have had no issues with quality or wear. I liked it so much, I ordered it in burgundy.

I always put my wallet in my purse anyway, so why not ditch the wallet and put all the cards in the card pockets? It has lots of pockets for essentials like keys, phone, zip area for cash, but slim/compact enought that I can't try to jam everything I own into it so remains lightweight. I like the security measures, can never be too safe these days. I liked it so much I ordered the small cross body bag (only large enough for the essentials) and the saddle bag that were on sale. I also like that there's no ornate nonsense on the bags that catches the eye, less of a target for theft if they look kinda boring.

This is a great little bag with enough pockets to hold a remarkable amount of stuff. The black version passes as an acceptable manbag and the locking clasps on the zips are fiddly enough that I felt confident that it would dissuade most pickpockets from trying. The bag is still vulnerable to being snatched off your shoulder, but you can actually use the locking clasp to attach it to a trouser belt loop if you're that concerned. However, that's less likely anyway given the anti-slash protection. I spent a week with this in March in Barcelona (pickpocket capital of the world, supposedly) and as far as I'm aware nobody even tried. I paired this with my walking trousers that have zippable pockets as this provided quicker access to my phone and small change. The card holders in the bag can eliminate the need for a wallet, mine spent the whole week in the hotel room safe. I also had two small cameras, the rest of my cash, Metro passes and lots of misc leaflets and other stuff you pick up while touristing. When we needed bigger low-value items (e.g. coats, water etc), these went in a rucksack. The bag is not cheap but it bought me peace of mind and was actually more useful than my other satchel bag.

I love this purse! It is lightweight, great quality and a fun colour (purple). I need a slightly smaller wallet, as I do find it occasionally difficult to get my wallet in and out of the purse. The little light on the inside is a terrific detail! I am considering the black version too. :)

Me gustó el color, el tamaño y la calidad.
