Customer Reviews Pacsafe Slingsafe™ 200 GII Anti-Theft Cross Body Bag

Just right! I also ordered the Metrosafe 200GII (too big) and the Slingsafe 100GII (too small). This bag was perfect for holding a water bottle, two small umbrellas, my phone and camera, multiple maps and a small guide book, as well as credit cards and cash. It wasn't as bulky as the Metrosafe and fit my body more comfortably. Loved the outside pocket for easy storage of things I wanted to get to quickly as well as the security features. The strap is wide enough (but not too wide, mind you) that it didn't dig into my shoulder/neck. The color is fairly neutral and a nice change from black.

This bag seems to have as much security as is possible for this type of product. It is lightweight and can hold most everything anyone might need while traveling or day-tripping. I particularly like the fabric as it isn't shiny or cheap-looking. It's simple exterior lacks the chains, studs, and buckles that lean toward gaudy. Luckily, I haven't experienced and attempted mugging, so I can't comment on whether or not the wire and mesh safeguards work.

I ordered this Thursday evening and received it before noon on Friday. Zappos rocks! As far as the bag itself, I am very pleased with it. Comfortable cross-body fit that can be adjusted; plenty of room for carrying all the essentials!

I love this bag! It has it all, security, capacity to carry items even a small umbrella, and it is waterproof! I use it every day now that I work in the city. Today it rained and all contents of my bag were safe and dry.

Just returned from a trip to Spain where one is warned to watch out for pick-pockets, gypsies and thieves. I bought this purse and a smaller one of the same brand planning to use the small one most of the time. But I ended up using this one all of the time. The strap on this one was more flexible and I loved the way the shape of the bag fit my body. There was plenty of space inside for everything I needed to carry, including my 7 inch tablet. There was room to spare in the tablet compartment so it might hold a larger tablet. We had some rain and the purse seemed to work well at resisting water. Downside of the purse was that the fabric is very slippery so doesn't sit well in the lap or on the ground. Luckily, I never needed to test out the thief-resistance capabilities of this bag. But it was nice to know I had them.

I ordered this in black. I was disappointed that it is actually a dark charcoal gray and not exactly black. It is large enough to hold an ipad. It is a highly functional and practical bag but not cute at all. For a few extra bucks, they could have made a cute bag like this. In black. What I would love from Pacsafe is a cute sling bag that is roomy enough to hold a water bottle and wallet plus a few other items. The ones I have seen are either a bit too small or too large. I may keep this one just to use around town when I need to have my ipad with me, but I won't be using it for travel. So I am still shopping.

I bought this purse to travel to Italy and hated it. I didn't need to take such precaution by taking a PacSafe purse and wish I had one of my "designer" purses with me instead. It's really very unattractive.

The Metrosafe and Citysafe line of bags by Pacsafe offer no water resistance at all, letting water pass through the material almost as if it is not there. If you are caught out in the rain your belongings will be drenched. That is not good for travelers. If you prefer a bag that protects from theft as well as the elements, Do not purchase these products. As well, I contacted the company about my experience having been drenched and all of my belongings being soaked (train tickets, electronics, et al totally ruined) and they offered absolutely nothing. Not even so much as a refund for an unsatisfactory product.

I used this on a 3wk trip to Italy. I loved it! It was the perfect size for sightseeing and comfortable to wear. Also didn't have to worry if we got caught in the rain. Only improvement would be more internal pockets to hold pens and pencils for easy access.

I bought this for a trip I am going on but haven't used it yet. So with that being said I think it will nicely fit my needs. I wanted something big enough to fit essentials -- phone, sunglasses, glasses and wallet. Plus enough room for small water bottle or umbrella. It is a nice medium size. Not too small not too big. It feels comfortable on and be worn with the purse in the front of your body. As far as style, I would say more functional. However, the fabric is soft and there a several pockets to store stuff.

The most comfortable cross body bag I have! I'm heading to Thailand and wanted something sleek but large enough to fit all my stuff. The smooth finish fabric is one of the best features; it works with dress or casual. iPad fits well, as does my compact umbrella, electronics, and other necessaries.

Outstanding bag! Very well designed for both safety and comfort. It can hold all you need for a day's travel including a small bottle of water. The compartments keep things organized and easy to reach. It's very lightweight and the wide strap is easy on your shoulder. The synthetic fabric feels wonderful and is easy to clean. If you've never tried a cross-body bag, get it. This bag and a Tilley hat are 2 of a traveler's best friends.

I traveled with this bag, liking it for its light weight. I holds necessities and more, is very soft in construction. The metal reinforced wires are ca 1 inch apart invisible, on the outer side of the bag, not towards the body where one stores passport/Id items. Fabric repels dirt, may be washable. I like the safety features much. Downside: the Sling strap moves extremely easy, lenghtening, so I had to adjust it often. It allows easy access to all ID at airport around the shoulder, while one can carry-on other items.

I carried this on an overseas concert tour. It was just the right size, lightweight, protected my valuables, and was comfortable to carry. It is medium size so you won't get large things in it but it held everything that is necessary.

It is just the right size bag and fit comfortably across the body. The color was just right for my needs. Thankfully, I was never in a threatening situation on my travels, but it felt good to have a secure bag.

Great bag, lightweight, exactly as described. My only beef is that I bought this, and a wallet and a coin purse only to find that Amazon is selling them for less. In fact the wallet is $20 less! Zappos has no price matching. Felt ripped off since Zappo's brags about great prices. Not true.

I just used this purse for a month traveling in Italy. Not only does it look good, it feels good to wear and very safe to carry. I can't decide whether to save it for travel or use it at home.

Zappos saves the day! Wanted this for an upcoming trip to Kenya for which my office gave me less than a week's notice. Very few places (including Pacsafe itself) had it in stock, or if they did, they wanted exhorbitant amounts for expedited shipping. Got it overnight from Zappos for a very reasonable $25 and I love the bag! I got it for practical reasons but have already gotten many compliments! Be aware that it is relatively small, but Pacsafe has a larger anti-theft hobo bag if you are seeking something with room for more than a few items (I managed to fit my sunglasses, wallet, passport, and phone with just barely enough room for my tablet).

Very well designed light weight bag. Great for a traveling girl. The RFID pocket is a great idea. My iPod fits easily and securely into the padded pouch. Zipper pulls are hidden where only the owner can access them easily. The main zipper pull has a lock. Strap to go cross the shoulder is adjustable.

I love this bag! It's lightweight, has nice pockets, and the safe pocket for passports/credit cards. It's also cute. Last but not least, you can depend on Zappos for great service!

Perfect for traveling! Really comfortable to wear, very light, flexible, plenty of room, practical pockets, totally functional and practical. I liked this bag more than I thought I would; I bought it for a trip to NYC and liked it so much that I might even carry it for everyday use, as it was a bit nicer looking than I thought it would be (though noting special in terms of being fashionable). Goes with anything, totally unobtrusive style/color/exterior, pretty green interior.

Traveling recently out if the country and having the pacsafe sling safe crossbody bag was a good experience. I felt my personal belongings were safe and easy to get too. I didn't need to carry anything else. I even carried the bag when on vacation and locked the bag's strap often when dining onto a chair. It was awesome! It's definitely the bag to have. Highly recommended for traveling. I will buy another color because it's fun to have. Thank you.

I absolutely love this bag! Recently went on a trip around Asia and used it the entire time, as some of the places I went are known for pick-pocketers. I could easily carry a water bottle and small camera in the bag along with wallet and other small items that are normally in my purse. I'm not sure it's one that I'll use all the time at home (it's as stylish as it can be for its purpose!), but I highly recommend as a purse for traveling!

(I purchased this bag based on the other reviews.) I haven't actually gotten to use my PacSafe bag yet but I bought it for an upcoming trip to New York City and it's exactly what I was looking for. Nice size without being bulky and fits all the things I will need for a day trip in the city. Loved the color as well. A little muted from the pink on the website but I didn't mind.

I bought this bag to replace an old Tumi travel bag I bought a few years ago; this Pacsafe bag is so much better and more user-friendly than the much more expensive Tumi bag. The Pacsafe was incredibly lightweight and comfortable, had a ton of room, and I loved the added safety features (extra locks to keep things safe).
