I bought this bag for a trip to Brazil, where I’d heard theft could be an issue, and I didn’t want to be constantly worrying while out and about.
I hesitated before buying because it was hard to gauge how much it would hold and whether it would look stylish enough for both day and evening use. When I finally ordered, I was disappointed that only the pink and green were in stock — I’d have preferred black for a smarter, more practical option. I chose the pink, but even as a fan of pink, I find this dusty, peachy shade a bit old-fashioned. Unfortunately, after my trip it’s also showing dirt on the corners that I can’t clean off, which will likely shorten its lifespan and reduce its eco appeal. I fear it will soon look too scruffy to be useful as both a day and evening bag.
That said, the bag exceeded my expectations in other ways. It’s surprisingly spacious — easily fitting my passport, phone, small suncream, and hand sanitiser. The anti-theft features take a little practice, but soon become easier, and although the plastic clasps feel slightly flimsy, they’ve held up fine so far.
Overall, I’m happy with the purchase. It made me feel noticeably more at ease and confident while travelling. I just wish that Pacsafe would keep their full range of colours in stock.
Thank you so much for your detailed review. We’re really glad to hear the bag helped you feel more confident and secure during your trip to Brazil!
We appreciate your honest feedback about the color and cleaning concerns. For spot cleaning, we recommend starting with a mild detergent and a soft cloth. If that doesn’t work, you could try applying a paste made from baking soda and water, or using a melamine sponge to gently clean the affected areas. Always test on a small area first to ensure it doesn’t affect the fabric.
We also understand your preference for more color options, especially classic shades like black. We’ll definitely pass your suggestion along to our product team.
Thanks again for your support and for sharing your experience with us!
Being a New Yorker, this compact tight safe bag is perfect for my phone, money and credit cards and ID. It is my every day crossbody bag. I feel much more secure and can also use it under a coat.
