Review on ๐Ÿงณ MISSLO Portable Travel Zipper Closure Bag by Paula Whalen

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Great bags from a company that took the time to improve the product after the first review!

UPDATE (5/10/16): Wow. I've never seen a company respond so quickly to feedback to improve their product when there was a clear flaw in it. To sum up my great experience with Misslo, I initially gave it a two star rating because the zippers on the bags I first bought came off with relative ease. They contacted me and sent me some replacement bags which unfortunately had the same problem. I'm updating my rating to three stars because the solution was a little better, but it was still there. Thanks to my feedback they sent me samples of the new bags which completely fixed the problem and they are exactly the bags I was hoping for. Buy from the start. They fixed the zipper issue by stitching the zipper to the flap where the zipper was previously attached. This will prevent the zipper from accidentally detaching from the end (in fact I don't think that will ever happen, even with extreme use). So thank you Misslo! It might seem like overkill for a shoe bag review, but I use them almost every day for my cycling shoes on my commute and it's great to have an elegant solution (read: no plastic bag) to keep my backpack/panniers clean. UPDATE (4/26/16): Misslo contacted me directly and apologized for the zipper issue. They said the zipper issue was fixed and sent a set of replacement bags (free for me). Unfortunately the bags were identical to the ones I originally received where instead of an actual zip the zip is held together with a couple of strands of rope sewn onto the end of the zip. On the one hand, it's great that I have an extra set in case the zipper inevitably falls off, but it would be great if they updated these bags so this problem doesn't exist at all. Overall I'm happy with them so far. (I mean they are inexpensive) and they go great with my shoes. I just have to be careful when I lock my shoes in my bag. I don't want to put anyone off buying them as they still seem like the best options at this price point, but I really wish Misslo would fix this issue. the shoes fell apart in my backpack while cycling. They fit well on the shoe, but the zipper comes loose easily if you pull it too far. It happens too easily. Of course you can reattach the zipper and add some tape to keep the zipper from falling off the end, but that's not necessary.

Pros
  • Great selection
Cons
  • Something's wrong
