Love this durable bag and buying another!
This bag has been all over the world with me. It’s big enough, and it’s small enough. It’s Goldilocks! It’s durable and flexible and has the right number of pockets and compartments. I have a front pocket that I use for both phones (work and personal). Another front pocket is for the passport and boarding passes or travel docs like Metro or Tube tix. The back pocket is for travel necessities like extra Splenda, bandaids, dental floss and tiny tubes of Tabasco. Inside, there’s room for my “purse pepper” (a grinder I carry because you can never get good pepper when you travel), my wallet, an iPad, and stray items like half a sandwich you might have left over from a lunch, a banana, or a paperback, etc. There are also pockets for makeup, sunglasses, keys and whatnot. I’ve had this bag for 5+ years and over 40 international trips and wouldn’t be getting a new one except that I’ve been hard on the interior and the lightest fabric is starting to fray. I’m getting a second one and now will have one for backup. LOVE THIS PURSE.

Safe bag for travel that doesnât scream âtourist â
In planning a trip to Paris I searched for a handbag that would work. Pickpockets are epidemic in Paris as in many urban areas. Most travel safe bags look so frumpy and telegraph âtouristâ, which ironically makes you a target!I am very very picky about handbags. Like Goldilocks picky! This one is big enough for more than just a passport and lipstick, but not so big stuff gets lost or the bag gets too heavy. It is well organized. It has RFID protection and lots of nifty foils for thieves like locking zippers and slash proof straps and fabric.And itâs good looking! I have been using it as an everyday bag to get used to it pre-trip and I am really enjoying it.The strap tends to slip off my shoulder if I have it like a shoulder bag due to the stiffness and smooth fabric, but, I will carry it cross body when I travel.I purchased a âused, like newâ bag at a discount, and it was just a return, unused item. Just like brand new, and I appreciate the $$ saved. More $ for croissants!

Light weight, Sturdy, Roomy and Slim
I don’t travel much, although I do carry a lot in my purse. This purse works great! I have used it exclusively since October of 2021. It is very sturdy, as I walk through snow, sun, and rain with it loaded to get to work. I love the adjustable strap that I use mainly as a crossbody. It has plenty of strap length if I wanted it even longer. I wear it over my heavy winter coat. It still looks like new inside and out. I do not baby it, and set it on floors or in the trunk of my car. I thought it might look cheap as I usually prefer leather. Since it isn’t showing wear and tear, no smudges, it looks good. I like that it isn’t fat and bulging, it has a slim appearance, even though it holds plenty, even a folding umbrella and water bottle, in addition to the usual. It is somewhat plain in looks, not attention getting, just extremely useful and durable. I just ordered another Travelon purse in a lighter color. Excellent Brand!

Decided to try a Travelon bag!
Itâs a very good quality bag. It isnât nylon, itâs a thicker water resistant, maybe a cotton blend thatâs kind of sporty looking. It has great space, with 4 interior pockets and 3 exterior pockets. I like all the security features. I didnât give it 5 stars because itâs a bit plain looking and only the hidden exterior pocket and the main compartment have locking zippers. There are 2 exterior pockets that have regular zippers and theyâre clearly visible. Also the exterior pockets and 1 interior zip pocket arenât that deep. The exterior pockets are a little less than halfway down the bag but that could be a good thing so youâre not digging for stuff. I just started using it and really like it. Iâll definitely get a lot of use out of it. Based on this bag I would try Travelon again.

Great Bag!
I carried this all through Italy on a recent trip. It is large enough to hold a bottle of water, plus other items. I love the cross body strap and the security clips. It was kind of a pain to unclip my zippers every time I went through customs to retrieve my passport, but that inconvenience gave me more comfort in knowing that if I were struggling to unclip the clips, a pick pocket would certainly be noticed! We were caught in a downpour in Venice and we and the bag got soaked. It dried fine overnight and the contents inside stayed dry.

Nice travel bag
This is a very nice travel bag. The material kind of feels like a nice raincoat material (not the slippery kind). It has lots of pockets with lockable zipper pulls. I had difficulty unlocking one of the pulls as it was positioned near a seam which resulted in additional material however with practice Iâm sure I could have gotten quicker at opening. It is a nice medium size, however I decided it was a bit too big for what I needed it for and returned it. It is big enough to carry your wallet, a walking map, water bottle (regular stainless or plastic), phone, lipstick, small tube of sunscreen or lotion or small souvenirs if youâre shopping.

Great Bag
Wow, was not sure about this bag but it is great. Being petite 5’2″, bags can easily overwhelm me. This one sits flat and is light weight, no bulkiness. And the strap easily adjusts to either shoulder or cross body. Love all the security zip and other zip pockets, easy to keep organized. I am using this daily now and will take it when I travel overseas. Also, I love that it does NOT have a big brand logo on the front or anywhere on it screaming “travel bag, I am a tourist” on it.

My old ten year old Travelon wore out from constant use, and this is a great replacement model!
I got this crossbody purse in black and I love it! It has more room and is sturdier than my old one which I literally wore out. It seems for security, I must carry a crossbody purse these days. I wear it everywhere!I love the RFD protection for my credit cards, the reinforced body, and the belt handle. This one has much more room and I love the security zippers on the bag, the light, and all the other features. The black one was $39.99 or so while the colored bags started at $52.00. Black is more functional and elegant for me. I walk dogs and I have room for the leash, the treats, and the refuse bags. Works great.

What a fabulous cross body bag! After much research, I came across this model as I needed a bag with deep interior and RFID protection. I am not disappointed with this purchase.I love the zipper compartments in the front and rear of the bag, one pocket in the front also features a lock for extra security, great for car keys and such.The interior of the bag features 2 open compartments, one to hold thr air-mesh pouch that can hold your credit ards, etc which can also be secured with the tethered which they thoughfully added a light (you will need to purchase two CR1220 batteries). The third compartment is zippered, allowing for pens, makeup, passport, phone cables and more.There is enough space remaining in the interior for cameras, a book, etc.I love the gun-metal black bag and the slash resistant adjustable strap. You even get to register your bag for warranty coverage once received. It is very comfortable to wear and looks fashionable for every day use.Recommend!

This bag worked really well for a recent trip. Having a number of different compartments and zippered pockets was very handy this medium size bag held everything I needed, including a bottle of honor. I appreciated that you could secure two Of the zippered compartments for extra security.

Llevaba 10 años usando bolsas Kiplin por su calidad, quise arriesgarme a usar esta marca por los reviews que vi, y mis respetos, me agradó mucho, yo creo que hasta superó, pues está muy reforzada, el diseño y la funcionalidad es estupenda, si te ves conservadora moderna, hasta mi hija que viste de forma exótica le gustó, el tamaño para mi también adecuado.

I liked it well enough to keep it but it is not as dressy as I would have liked. Well designed and sturdy.
