Review on Design Compact Anti Theft Laptop Backpack by Chelsea Collins

I used this backpack for traveling around Europe. It lives up to its anti-theft name, I've never once felt unprotected in it, not even on Las Ramblas in Barcelona where pickpockets are notorious. Carry-on/extra pocket - LOVE the USB charging socket built into the bag which made it very easy for me to stash my power bank in the bag and keep a small cable in the outside pockets to plug into with little fuss. - Large hidden pockets to store sensitive items such as passport, wallet, keys, phone, etc. - Light weight. The bag itself is very light, which was very important to me as I planned to always travel with a camera and a bottle of water. duffel bag! This little bag has come in handy MANY times, especially in countries that don't use plastic bags for small purchases. It can withstand a lot and is actually great for washing! Cons - HOT. At first I didn't understand how hot this bag warms my back, after wearing it for 10 minutes I was sweating. This was true even in colder climates like Scotland, although hotter climates were definitely worse (Italy in July!) - Scratchy material on back/shoulder straps. Not only was this bag hot to wear, it was also not very comfortable to wear when wearing backless dresses/tops and tank tops/sleeveless tops. The material will irritate my shoulders. Difficult. The straps were very stiff which could be a plus depending on how you look at it. They seemed to dig into my neck after wearing them for a long time. Also, I could see if you have big breasts, they were uncomfortable. Overall I'm glad I decided to take this bag with me on the trip, it held up very well and was big enough to pack my camera, an extra 300mm. Lenses and water as well as other small thin items like my passport, brochures and small electronics (especially the Kindle!). I would say this is a good buy for people with a small stature who need anti-theft protection.
