Anti-theft Classic Essential Messenger Bag, Nutmeg

After reading about all of the problems with pickpockets in Paris, I knew I had to take a safe purse. I was travelling alone with my 16 year old daughter and felt a little more vulnerable anyway. I am very glad I had this purse because it provided me peace of mind. Thank goodness I didnt have to test its safety features although I did see the pickpockets. This was the perfect size for me because I dont like really big purses and Ive had shoulder surgery so I use cross-body bags. I carried our two passports, our money (I kept the coins in the outer pocket and the bills in the compartment inside the main part), a pocket camera, a pair of sunglasses and a pair of regular glasses in a case, two cell phones, a pen and small pad of paper, a couple of maps/brochures folded in half. I still had a little more room. I could put a bottle of water in there but with my other stuff I couldnt really zip it all the way closed so I didnt really do that. This purse was well worth the purchase. I looked at every one I could find and Im so glad I got this one because it was perfect.

Smaller than expected and the color is definitely not gray

great purse - comfortable and stored a lot

Purchased this to replace my old summer purse. Very well made; good stitching, light to carry. A quality bag that will last a long time.

This is my third Travelon Messenger Bag over the past 10yrs.. They are so well made and very light and comfortable to carry.. I have added a sliding shoulder pad on the strap because I carry so many things I might need.. I even have a small umbrella stuffed down in the bottom.. I love all of the security features...

Very functional, beautiful, light and water resistant

Great value

Ive owned my share of travel bags and I am happiest with this one. It is very secure, holds entirely too much of my stuff, and its comfortable. Whether you are taking a gentle stroll through wine country or climbing up jagged rock paths in Montenegro, this one works.

The opening to the purse is awkwardly small

Love it. Purchased 3 so far
