Pacsafe designs an array of anti-theft bags and there are plenty of styles to choose from, but which one is right for you? One thing they all have in common is the anti-theft features, but each bag also has its variation of specs to suit your particular lifestyle.


Citysafe CX Anti-Theft Backpack

Undeniably the most practical travel bag is the Citysafe CX Anti-Theft Backpack. It’s ideal for those who want to be hands-free and the two shoulder straps evenly distribute the weight of the contents to prevent shoulder or back injuries.

We take our Citysafe backpack on all of our travels as its features are too good to resist. The bundle of anti-theft features provides us with peace of mind which is much needed when you can’t exactly see what is going on behind you.

KEY FEATURES WE LOVE:

  • Exterior Side Pockets - The convenience of two exterior pockets can hold items like bottled water or a travel-size umbrella. It's a drag to have to constantly unzip a bag to take out a drink and we don't like having to worry about a possible bottle leakage inside the bag.

  • Exterior Handle Sleeve - This exterior handle sleeve is a must for us when we travel. We carry heavy camera gear and it starts to take a toll on our back and shoulders. Having a bag with a dedicated handle sleeve eliminates having to figure out a way to wrap a normal backpack around a suitcase handle. 

  • Feminine Design - Most backpacks that are made for travel tend to have a masculine motif. There has been a surge of stylish designer backpacks, but they tend to lack functionality. We prefer a casual feminine design that is practical and this one is perfect.

Citysafe CX Anti-Theft Packable Horizontal Tote

Do you know any women in your life who don’t own a tote bag? It’s the essential wardrobe item that nearly holds everything and can be used for just about anything. Unlike the backpack, you can’t distribute the weight, but the tote is timeless and versatile in both style and practicality.

We use Pacsafe’s Citysafe CX Tote for just about anything. The best features are its adjustable size and its handle sleeve. When you’re not using the tote, you can easily fold it and toss it into your suitcase. When you are ready to use the tote, you can slide it onto the handle of your suitcase.

Having this extra bag has come in handy for us on so many occasions. We ended up using it as a beach bag, a grocery shopping bag, and even a camera bag. It’s super versatile and the added anti-theft features are a huge plus.  

KEY FEATURES WE LOVE:

  • Removable Clutch - The clutch clips onto the front of the tote for easy access to important things like your wallet and phone. It can also be removed and used as a clutch on its own.

  • Storage - This tote boasts 10 liters of storage and can fit so many things! We’ve packed our DSLR camera, towels, extra clothes, dog necessities, chargers, and more.

  • Exterior Handle Sleeve - We love bags and totes that come with an exterior handle sleeve. You’re able to move more freely and it comes in handy if you’re traveling with your dogs as well.

Loved by men and women alike, the sling pack can be worn either in the front or back. The design is slim but still roomy enough to hold smaller necessities like your wallet, keys, headphone, etc. The padding on the strap helps prevent discomfort and is much appreciated when worn for long periods. It is also protected with Carrysafe® slashguard strap.

Internal attachment for your keys

Pacsafe’s sling packs come equipped with their innovative anti-theft features and internal compartments to keep your belongings organized. You’ll also find an internal padded sleeve for a 10” tablet/iPad. One of our favorite features is the internal attachment point for wallet and keys. Misplaced keys in your bag happen so often that we wonder why it's not a common feature in all bags. 

KEY FEATURES WE LOVE:

  • Protected Material and Strap - These bags are protected by the eXomesh® splashguard and Carrysafe® slashguard strap so it will guard you against thieves that may attempt to cut and run with your bag.

  • Multiple Compartments - We love to organize, so having multiple compartments on the outside and inside of the bags are super useful. There’s also a separate RFID-safe pouch where you can store your credit cards and/or passport.

  • Internal Attachment - The internal attachment is super handy to attach your keys or wallet so that it’s secured within your bag and easy to find.

Vibe 100 Anti-Theft Hip Pack

Belt bags, fanny packs, bum bags, hip packs, or whatever you may call it, they have made quite the comeback these past few years and it looks like it’s here to stay for a while. We hope it sticks around forever because they are incredibly convenient.

If you don't like to walk around with a huge bag or purse, then the hip pack is the obvious choice. Not only is the hip pack super practical, but you can pretty much find a hip pack that suits a variety of lifestyles.

KEY FEATURES WE LOVE:

  • Versatility - Can be worn across the chest and as a hip pack on the back or front.

  • Padded Sleeve - Can fit a 7” tablet and your phone for extra protection.

  • Internal Attachment - The attachment comes in handy when you need to find your keys ASAP.

Wait. They Have Accessories Too!

Travel Packing Cubes

Do packing cubes really make a difference? We think it depends on the individual. We like to keep things tidy in our luggage and these cubes make packing and unpacking effortless. Pacsafe’s packing cubes come in three different sizes to separate underwear, clothing, and other necessities.

The mesh top is great for visibility and breathability. The quick grab handle makes it easier to carry and you can also hang it on a bathroom hook or closet hanger.

RFID Blocking Travel Case

This travel case comes in handy if you already have a favorite bag or purse (that isn’t Pacsafe), but still want to secure your belongings. The RFID-blocking material will protect the contents inside like your passport, credit cards, phone, etc. If you want to take it a step further, you can use a Pacsafe Cable Lock to secure your bag to a fixed object.

Where Can I Purchase Pacsafe?

Luckily there are several options, but here are the two options we recommend:

  • Pacsafe.com
    There are a couple of perks if you order directly from Pacsafe:

    • If you sign up for their newsletter you can get 10% off your order.

    • They also have a “Refer a Friend” program where you can give your friends 15% off and you can then receive a $10 Amazon gift card for every friend who purchases over US$100.

  • Amazon.com
    Pacsafe.com only offers free shipping for orders over $50, so Amazon is a good option if you already have Amazon Prime.
