It’s no secret that I love to travel. But recently while in sunny southern Spain I realized… I am not as young as I used to be! Carrying a heavy tote (filled only with essentials, I assure you) through the scenic streets and gardens of the city felt fine in the morning. But as the day turned into evening, my arms and shoulders really began to ache. After a few days, I had to ditch the tote for a teeny crossbody bag, which was lighter, but far less practical. For my next trip, I will be well prepared with my Anti-Theft Travel Backpack from Shrrie!
Perfect for all types of travel, this backpack features an oh-so-safe back zipper closure (instead of just a zipper along the top or on the side). The zipper opening rests against your back, effectively foiling potential pickpockets (see photo below). There are still convenient side pockets and front pockets for easy access to sunglasses, for example. But your valuables stay safe and sound, as you enjoy the sights worry free.
The interior is equally well designed and organized with a roomy main compartment (easily fitting an extra pair of comfy shoes, snacks and a water bottle). It will even handle a 13.3″ laptop. An interior pocket is perfect for smaller items like a room key.
And, it’s a breeze to carry. The backpack itself is durable but very lightweight (less than 1 1/2 pounds!), as it is made of vegan leather. This also makes it extremely flexible and “squishable” for packing in a suitcase or easily maneuvering it under the airplane seat.
Plus, it’s so cute! Other details include a fringed tassel on the zipper and, in addition to adjustable over-the-shoulder straps, there’s a detachable long shoulder strap in a colorful “guitar strap” style, should you need to switch it up.
As an extra bonus, a small matching cosmetic case comes with the backpack. This a great way to keep any “messy” items like lip gloss and sunblock corralled in your bag as you sightsee. It is even large enough (meaning it fits both of my phones) to be used as a wristlet, by itself.
I chose a warm caramel brown. But this anti-theft backpack is available in an incredible range of 18 colors, from subtle silvery gray, to bold canary yellow, to on-trend animal print. Amazon Retail $42.99
This travel backpack is destined to become my go to as I continue to add stamps to my passport. The only question is Susan Went …Where?
