Great size for carrying everyday items as well as a small iPad or reader.

So far so good. Quality of the bag is really good. I’m not a huge fan of the strap but I think you are limited to materials when you are making it cut or slash proof. Lots of pockets both inside and out. So far I have my tablet, phone, 4 passports, all my cards and knick knacks like lipsticks and hand cream in there and it all fits well. Much better size than the old travel purse I was using. Love the water bottle holder. I can put an empty water bottle in it, pass through security then fill it at the fountain without spending a dime. I think I’ll get my monies worth out of this bag. Going to use it Saturday for our next voyage.
This bag is so well thought out and filled with so many great features. I liked this bag so much that I ended up buying another one for my mom. The bag feels very secure and the material feels heavy duty. The locks on the zips are easy to use and definitely add peace of mind. I love that the strap isn't too thin and is easy to adjust length to your comfort level. There are so many pockets and zipped areas that it is easy to stay organized and find what I am looking for. The main section of the bag is big and has been able to hold a scarf, small umbrella, hat, gloves etc. My family passport holder fits in there too with lots of room to spare. I bought the purple and black. Both are great and look elegant. The purple is true to color and is exactly what I expected. I think these bags are durable, useful and will last a really long time.
Very functional and cute to boot! It's a nice medium-small purse that looks proportionate to my body. The material looks and feels like the fabric used for suitcases, which might not be to some peoples taste. The anti-theft functions appear to work well, although I agree with other reviewers--the zipper clips feel a bit flimsy, and I'm not surprised some people have found that they break. My favourite part of the purse is the size slots for water bottles. You can keep it zipped to maintain a more sleek look, or unzip them and have extra slots (it looks a bit dorky but hey, prioritize hydration!). I bought this purse as a camera bag for my large, Nikon D610 DSLR, and it easily carries that plus a book, water bottle, and sunscreen.
This was a gift, however I was told it was a very useful and durable purse. Looks great even for an older lady. It holds everything that most women carry with them on a daily basis.
I bought this bag for a trip in 2016 to Europe as I am in my 60s and have had previous theft concerns while traveling. I gave this bag a trial run on a 3 week trip to Hawaii. The features I liked are the side expansion for water bottle, has several outer compartments, inner zipped pocket is very handy and size is good. I didn't feel the need to use the outer lock on the zip or security lock for strap. I found my credit cards kept slipping out of the RFID slots. More sections inside would definitely help organization of items. The top zipper does appear to be a bit flimsy and there are a few uneven stitches along the top. My biggest disappointment is that the shoulder strap feels abrasive. Not sure if it will wear in over more time. Overall, functional and I think it will do the job.
I purchased this anti-theft bucket bag in purple since the price was significantly less, & I'm pleased with the color. It's a nice deep plum, not bright & flashy, & doesn't clash with other things you're wearing. I've just packed it for a trip, transferring most of my normal purse contents into it including a wallet & it all fit nicely, although it will be a tight squeeze to add my tablet. I'm a bit of a pack rat though, so most will have plenty of room for the tablet too. A great feature is the double outside water bottle holders. The cross body strap is very adjustable for any length desired. It feels well made, & I feel secure heading out traveling with this bag.
I love that there are just enough compartments and a couple of RFID blocker pockets for my credit card wallet. Too many compartments gets confusing when grabbing quickly for phone or keys. The main compartment will easily hold my 9.7 IPad as well as e-reader and battery for the IPhone. This will make travel packing so much easier but it also looks good enough to use every day as a purse. When the world returns to normal and we’re back at regular sporting events like hockey games, this will be perfect. I’ll even be able to put my small water bottle in there (empty, of course) and still be able to get through the security quickly. The colour is great, the styling is pretty classic. If I have one complaint it is the strap slides off my shoulder but that is just a matter of adjusting it. I like the zipper clips - I’m sure they can be awkward at times but for any kind of international travel that’s just the complication that slows down pickpockets too. Most of the time I don’t bother to clip the zippers and that seems a simple, yet elegant solution to any inconvenience some have experienced. Most importantly, it is well made from decent material. This is an investment that will last years and worth the price. I’m tired of buying new purses and personal carry bags frequently because seams tear and the fabric simply gives out. You get what you pay for. So, for travel and every day use, I think this wee bag has found a forever home at my side.
I ordered this bag for a recent trip to Europe. It was a fantastic purchase! I used it as my carry on bag, loading it full of stuff for the plane. Once at our destination, I used it as a purse. It was lightweight, comfortable to carry and very functional. The one and only problem I have with this bag is that the credit card slots are not secure. My cards kept falling out of the slots, giving me a moment of panic. Luckily a card only fell out of my purse once, and I noticed it right away, the rest of the time, the cards ended up in the bottom of the bag. The best part of this bag is that there are two "water bottle" pockets that zip out to accomodate a large water bottle securely. The other side can be used to stash a folding umbrella. Highly recommend this bag for travel!

I couldn't be happier with the Travelon Anti-Theft Cross-Body Bucket Bag in Black - it's an absolute gem that I wholeheartedly rate with 5 stars. This bag has truly transformed my travel and daily routine with its outstanding features. I use it on EVERY trip I take.
The amount of space this bag provides is remarkable; I'm amazed at how much I can fit into it without sacrificing comfort or style. The locking features offer a sense of security that's essential while traveling, and the ripstop material adds an extra layer of durability.
I appreciate the easy adjustability of the strap, which ensures a comfortable fit no matter the occasion. The bag's sturdiness is remarkable; I can even unhook and add items to be carried on the strap without any concerns. The versatility this offers is a game-changer.
After about a year of extensive travel and daily use, the bag is holding up admirably. While it does show a bit of wear, it's nothing that's remotely concerning. The relatively easy cleaning process has helped maintain its appearance remarkably well.
In summary, the Travelon Anti-Theft Cross-Body Bucket Bag is the epitome of a perfect travel companion. Its spaciousness, locking features, durability, and adjustability all contribute to making it an exceptional choice. After a year of rigorous use, it's still going strong and continues to impress me. If you're looking for a reliable, stylish, and secure bag that's perfect for travel and daily use, this one comes highly recommended. I genuinely love everything about it!
The bag itself is lightweight, it is roomy with plenty of pockets, sensible organisation, RFID shielding and secure able zip tags. The only thing I would have preferred was a padded and non slip sleeve over the shoulder strap, as when the bag was full it dug in, and bags have a tendency to slide off my shoulders.
