What customers say
Customers express overwhelmingly positive sentiment regarding the Pacsafe® V anti-theft companion crossbody, primarily driven by the unparalleled sense of security it provides. Travelers, in particular, laud the comprehensive anti-theft features, including the eXomesh slashguard material, secure zipper locks, and RFID blocking pockets, which offer significant peace of mind in crowded or high-risk environments. Users frequently describe the bag as an essential travel companion, noting that its compact size is perfect for carrying vital necessities—phone, passport, and wallet—without being bulky or cumbersome. The design is praised for being lightweight and comfortable for extended wear. While the premium price point is acknowledged, the consensus is that the investment is entirely justified by the robust security technology and high-quality construction, leading many to view it as excellent value for money given the protection offered. The main area of minor critique revolves around the bag's capacity; some users wish for slightly more depth or space to accommodate bulkier items or a small water bottle, but this limitation is generally accepted as a trade-off for the sleek, secure profile. Overall, the product is highly recommended for anyone prioritizing security and durability in a daily or travel crossbody.
Know before you buy
Yes, the internal sleeve is specifically designed to accommodate an 8-inch tablet. The padding provides a buffer against bumps, though it is best suited for slim tablets without bulky protective cases.
The bag features slash-resistant materials and lockable zippers to deter opportunistic theft in crowded areas. Additionally, the RFID-blocking pocket protects your credit cards and passport from digital skimming.
It is water-resistant. The PFC-free coating will keep your belongings dry during light rain or accidental spills, but it is not designed to be submerged or withstand heavy, prolonged downpours.
Yes, the bag includes external attachment points. These are ideal for clipping on small items like a travel pouch, a luggage lock, or a compact rain cover for quick access.
The strap is fully adjustable, allowing you to customize the length to suit your preference. You can easily transition between a tighter crossbody fit for security or a looser shoulder carry.
The 5-liter volume is perfect for daily essentials. You can comfortably fit your tablet, a phone, a wallet, a passport, a small power bank, and a few personal items while keeping everything organized with the internal pockets.
