baggallini Securtex Anti-Theft Vacation Backpack - Black

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this backpack for many reasons. I’ve been trying to find a backpack for the last six months. Some sounded great, but when they came even though I measured them, they were very heavy and much too big to wear. Also, they did not have the safety features that this one has. I love the size and a how this fits on my back perfectly, I love how the part that is against my back has a separate case so that you can put very valuable things in it and nobody can reach in. I love how all of the zippers hook together or to the purse so that nobody can just reach up and take a zipper and pull it open. I also love how many different pockets and areas it has to put different items in. I carry lot around and this bag fits all the things that I need.

This is the 3rd backpack I've purchased in this style. It makes it very easy to switch colors. I miss the open top back pocket that my first one had, but the straps on the newer version last longer. I wish it came in red!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is second time I’ve bought this backpack and it is awesome. I used it in Europe last year and I’m headed back this fall so I ordered another one for fun in a different color. I love the pocket on the back. I keep my passport and money in there and have never had a problem with theft.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for two upcoming European trips. I usually only carry a crossbody purse but I find sometimes I want to carry more, like a light jacket or my 35mm camera. I searched hours on line for a small backpack that had security features, in particular a place for cash and cards that was against my back when wearing it. Amazing how something that is a no-brainer to me isn't a feature in most backpacks. I love all the zipper locks on this bag and it it is just the right size. Only problem I haven't solved is finding a refillable water bottle that fits in the side pocket. A 16.9 plastic bottle fits perfectly but anything larger doesn't. It would be nice if those pockets had a pleat or elastic that allowed a somewhat larger bottle to fit.

I bought this a couple of months ago to take on my cruise! It carries all my important stuff. I don’t worry about someone getting into it. This is not a big bag but not small either. I’m putting my iPad iPods cords some meds and the securtex belt bag into it with my water bottle.

Overall, this is a well constructed backpack. Suggestions to make it a 5 star would be to make the water bottle holders larger (my small Yeti does not fit) and to add a trolley sleeve. I would use an alternative to a handbag vs a backpack.

I love this backpack! It is fairly lightweight, but holds a lot, and has a large laptop sleeve. It's everything I need for a great carryon, or to use in lieu of a briefcase when I attend hearings (which I preside over for a living)

It has nice features for anti-theft. I do wish you had one that was more masculine.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I bought this for my daughter-in-law for Christmas this year. I think she's going to love it. I really like the design of the black with the daisies. It's a nice smaller size for a backpack with all the great anti-theft features so helpful when traveling. I like it so much I may get one for myself!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] great size. Also the locking zippers seem to be high quality. Great option and sizing for our trip to Italy to carry around while we see the sights. Makes me feel more protected as well with having my passport and money in the pocket against my back :)

I bought this 2 years ago. I use as my purse. This has held up exceptionally well as do all baggalli products. Lots of pockets, love the anti theft features. Great for traveling Highly recommend

I was searching for a smaller backpack after lugging around the larger one after a cruise. Although I haven't used this one yet, I love the size and my shoulders and back will appreciate the lighter load. I love all baggalini anti-theft bags! I gave it a 4 only because I haven't actually taken it on a test run yet.

I’ve traveled with this backpack all over Asia and Europe. It has given me a sense of security, especially since the money and credit card compartment is on the strap side of the backpack against my back.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Love this bag! Lots of zipper pockets, very roomy and love the color! This bag is lightweight which is perfect for me!

This is the second time I’ve bought this backpack, and I’ll definitely buy it again! I love all the pockets, zippers, holes, etc, to make it the ideal bag to carry around as my one wallet, water bottle holder, snack and notebook and book holder, key chain, etc! All in this single bag! I used to have it in red and now I have black, and I love both colors!

This is an amazing bag. Kept me organized and safe on my trip to Italy. Perfect size. Sturdy and stylish too.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] These are the best secure handbags I have ever owned. This is my third and they last years before I have to get a new one. And I give them a proper workout. They just keep on! I have owned six and never plan to buy anything else.

I bought this Securtex Anti-Theft Vacation Backpack Color: Charcoal in the past few months. Very disappointed that the straps are breaking down & exposing the steel in them. One side is very sharp & scratches me when I carry the backpack. I love the backpack but disappointed that straps are breaking down... Will not allow me to attach pics to this review!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The bag seems durable and is well designed. I have only used it a couple of times so far but have been happy with it. It seems very secure and holds a good amount of stuff.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love the size and functionality of this bag. The fabric is easy to keep clean, and the color is beautiful. My only complaint is that it doesn't have a luggage sleeve. Although it is fairly small and easy to hold, there are times when it would be nice to have it secured to my luggage handle.
