When I got the Pacsafe Anti-Theft Crossbody Bag, I figured I would just use it on travel days instead of a passport wallet. It's slim, RFID-protecting, secure, and subtle enough to hold my passport, boarding pass, and other travel-day valuables that I want to keep on me at all times.
Little did I know I would end up using it pretty much every day! Not only is it a great travel-day bag, but it's also fabulous for a hands-free night on the town with the essentials: phone, some cards and cash (I actually fit a small card wallet in very easily), a mask....
I own a BUNCH of Pacsafe items (luggage, daypacks, purses, convertible purse/backpacks, and a sling) and I love them because they're stylish, functional, light, and most importantly, they have a host of amazing anti-theft features.
And because Pacsafe makes all their new bags with recycled plastic, and are well on their way to eliminating all virgin plastic from their entire supply chain, it's a company I can get behind.

[@sharoncook9694]

Not this bag in particular but scored me a PacSafe purse at Goodwill for $4.59 today!!

[@NoraDunn]

Well done!

[@katesavory3599]

Thanks, Nora! I always appreciate your gear reviews.

[@Lesleyantompyewtoob]

I have one, and love it. I keep my phone in the outer pocket, put cards in the card slots, cash in one of the two pocket slots on the other side. This way I can ditch the separate wallet. My passport (in a leather cover) fits in the other one or the two front slot pockets. The phone I fit into the outer zip pocket is a Samsung Note 20, complete with a fairly chunky case. That’s about as big as phones get, so you probably can fit any phone you like in there. You can also wear it as a waist pack if you like.

[@NoraDunn]

Wow - that's impressive! Thanks for sharing your strategy! I legit love this bag.

[@abchappell01]

I have known about you for 3 days now and you have already made my life better. Thank you so very much 😊

[@NoraDunn]

Wow - thanks Anthony!

[@BradVanlandingham]

Thank you Nora for sharing this fantastic little gem!! I’ve been searching for “the all in one” travel, passport , day, destination, not-traveling, any time bag, for two years, and this one is it!! I’ll follow the link in the video description to purchase it. Peace, b

[@NoraDunn]

Hey Brad! I'm so glad you like what you see! I hope you love the bag as much as I do. (I think you will). And thanks for ordering through my link as well. 🙏

[@koppachyarrawirri5415]

Love you nora!! Nice find , Australia misses you !!

[@marks2cents419]

Excellent review. I’m definitely considering it for my next travel bag/wallet. Thank you

[@NoraDunn]

Thanks Mark! It's a great bag. I won't travel without it!

[@email16v]

I added this in my cart! Thanks for an excellent review.

[@NoraDunn]

Awesome! I hope you love it as much as I do!

[@BlackWomenTravel]

I've never seen products by Pacsafe before. I've bought and gotten rid of stuff along the way, so will definitely check them out when it's time to buy again. Their stuff looks durable which is important to me. Thanks for sharing Nora!

[@NoraDunn]

Hey Wanda - Their stuff is SUPER durable! I have had their rolling carry-on for almost 10 years, and 2 of those years I traveled FULL-TIME with it. Still looks good as new, and I am HARD on my stuff.

I was checking out Pacsafe bags and found your video. Thanks Nora for your recommendation and sharing your knowledge.

[@NoraDunn]

Thanks Nancy! Are you going to get the tech crossbody bag? Or something else?

[@yannancy33]

@@NoraDunn I am considering the Metrosafe LS200 Anti-Theft Crossbody Bag. BTW, I have retired for a year now! Hehe!

[@tomjones715]

Nice bag review. The good thing about a handy little bag like that is it would be easy to conceal for obvious reasons, Just wear it over the shoulder and across the chest just like in the video and then wear a jacket or zip up hoodie over the top, Job done out of sight out of mind.

[@NoraDunn]

Exactly! Glad you enjoyed the review. This bag is still going strong for me - I take it on every trip (and I also use it at home all the time).

[@nyl_rn2752]

Pacsafe bags are the best when it comes to security because of its materials & features!

[@NoraDunn]

I totally agree!

[@utilizadoinvalido]

I have one in black ... it is great ...

[@DaveG-qd6ug]

Thanks, looks nice out in Canada !

[@NoraDunn]

Ha ha! That isn't Canada...not with a mango tree behind me! I filmed this during the summer in Florida. It may look like I kept my cool, but it was stinking hot! LOL

[@TamirYardenne]

Thanks

[@DoReMeaCulpa]

I got this bag 4 years ago for a UK trip, and it was perfect for keeping my phone, credit cards, passport, and some cash on my body at all times. Like you, wearing gave me that sense of security and I was far less worried about loss or theft of the valuables in it because it was on my body. The outer front pocket will fit a phone slightly larger than 6 inches (e.g Pixel 6) but not the 6.8 inch Samsung s22 ultra that i have now, so I am not using the bag at the moment. It does fit in the left inside pockets but that requires opening the bag every time I want to get at the phone, which is not ideal for me. So I need a similar but slightly larger bag. I would never want to just keep my phone loose inside for the bag (unless I could tether it in some way) as there is way too much risk of losing the phone if you forget to zip the bag fully (absent minded habit of mine). I REALLY wish Pacsafe would offer a slightly larger version of this bag/pouch. Just a half-inch taller and wider would be perfect, especially if they added a key leash and coin/cash compartment. So I was pleased to recently discover the Tracker anti-theft bag, and it might do as a larger substitute for the Pacsafe one because it is larger, has the slash proof crossbody strap, rfid protection and built in lockability.

[@NoraDunn]

Thanks for sharing! I put my phone in the middle, and I just never open it up fully. I am used to it now, but I can understand why it might not be for everybody.

[@tomd4748]

Just picked up Venturesafe EXP34 for $358. Last one from the retailer. Not easy to find anymore, but $40 less than Amazon price.

[@okinawanah3463]

i’m a big fan i have the Venturesafe waist pack and previously the Vibe until the zipper failed too often and the teeth would come undone, many times without me knowing and i keep all my ID and cards in the main compartment

[@NoraDunn]

Oh no! Have you contacted Pacsafe about the zipper? They have a 5-year warranty.

[@sweetypatnett6123]

Thanks for sharing this video and helpful tips! I will definitely invest in a one. I never heard of pac safe before. Where can I purchase one?

[@NoraDunn]

Thanks Sweety! There are links in the description!

[@FactsTrumpFeelings.]

Boom 💥

[@lissetsanchez5316]

My only issue is I like to take my sunglasses & reading glasses with me and this bag doesn't fit these items. Great review! Going to see if there is a larger version of crossbody for me.

[@NoraDunn]

Hey Lisset - I totally get it! And you'll find Pacsafe has lots of other options. I personally like their Vibe100 hip pack, which I wear as a sling. It's the perfect size for knick knacks, glasses, reusable shopping bags, and even a small bottle of water. Here's a link: bit.ly/3eQjwKj For something a bit nicer (and very flexible for travel), the Citysafe CX Anti-Theft Convertible Backpack is great: bit.ly/36YJuIT

Me too!

[@iiiiiccccc]

I love it.

[@iiiiiccccc]

bought one for India. Will need it in Pune and Mumbai methinks

[@NoraDunn]

Awesome! Let me know how you like it. I never travel without mine. And I use it at home all the time as well.

[@Paullebbon]

Hi, if the pouch at the back is RFID protected, surely it will stop your phone from getting any cell connection as well? I have a RFID pouch that I put my phone in to stop from getting tracked (if needed). The bag looks to be a great size and I will be sure to check it out further. Thanks for the video.

[@NoraDunn]

I don't have trouble with my phone staying connected, but I don't put it fully inside the RFID pocket; it just sits in the middle of the bag.

[@acebaker3623]

When you do travel normally, with rolling carry-on and "personal bag", do you also carry this crossbody bag as a purse? Does it count as an additional item?

[@NoraDunn]

Yes, I do wear this cross-body, and it never gets flagged. But it's small enough that if needed I could easily put it into my personal item bag.

[@alexxhamilton]

3:37 that's what they all say ..

[@LEXPIX]

Cool bag, but if it is RFID shielded, does it also block cell tower service, in case someone texts you while its in the bag?

[@brettrohlfingvideo]

Good question!

[@NoraDunn]

Excellent question! And no, I still got text messages with my phone in the bag. I think the RFID shielding is more specific to the various pockets; whereas the phone just sits in the middle main compartment. (But really, I'm just guessing).

[@bigtime911]

Which like better crossbag or Fanny pack pack safe

[@NoraDunn]

I have both. I like the crossbody tech bag for valuables and having just a few things with me. I like the Vibe 100 hip pack when I need a few extra things that don't fit into the crossbody tech bag.

[@Marcfj]

Do they ship to Thailand?

[@NoraDunn]

I believe so!

[@HawksGoalie33]

Slip to the @2:28 mark if you're looking for a feature overview.

[@NoraDunn]

Thanks for the productivity tip lol

[@initialc4263]

is the strap adjustable?

[@NoraDunn]

Yes, it is!

[@brotherpablo]

how many passports can it hold ?

[@NoraDunn]

Sorry I missed this comment! I would say a maximum of two passports.

[@luxpursuits]

New version is not as discreet as the one you have. Interior lining prints are terrible as well.

[@NoraDunn]

I don't personally mind it, but I appreciate your feedback.

[@luxpursuits]

@@NoraDunn terrible print - I meant the new version.

[@NoraDunn]

@@luxpursuits Yes, I recently got the new version to compare. I didn't find the interior lining print overly garish; though I'm not a huge fan of the giant "pacsafe" branding label on the outside. I don't mind brand labels, but this one isn't particularly attractive or classy.

[@luxpursuits]

@@NoraDunn Pacsafe label too. The first version is so much better.

[@dianaa.8270]

sold out ugh

[@NoraDunn]

Oh no! Hang tight - they'll restock.

[@mikebrault9164]

Any ideas for men? That looks to much like a purse.

[@NoraDunn]

Pacsafe has a very wide selection of stuff for both men and women. I'll bet you can find something that will suit your style there.
