Review on Secure and Stylish NeatPack Crossbody Bag for Women with RFID Blocking Pocket by Kristen Barrett

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Handy bag except for the bulky zippers

I bought this bag because I wanted something light and strong for travel and day trips. In practice, I use it as an everyday handbag because it is practical. I have chronic shoulder pain and can no longer carry heavy leather or patent leather bags, even over my shoulder. ADVANTAGES: light, comfortable, in the pockets everything is convenient and always at hand; I use one for my sunglasses, one for my phone, one for my keys etc and the main compartment leaves plenty of room for everything else. The side pocket is perfect for a water bottle. The pocket isn't big, but I was able to fold the sweater up and hide it in my pocket because it stretches as a fabric. CONS: Well, this isn't the most attractive bag. I confess that this time I chose comfort and practicality, not style. But it's not disgusting either. There are two reasons I gave it four stars and not five. First, the zippers look awkward. When I first received it, I found it very difficult to zip up the main compartment. Upon closer inspection, I noticed that the lining was sewn in such a way that part of it interfered with the zipper. I fixed this by sewing onto the excess fabric. This is not visible and the zipper now closes better, although not as smoothly as we would like. The other downside is that, as mentioned, it looks very utilitarian. It would be better if the zippers were more streamlined and the harness was made out of something other than webbing. Still a good, practical bag for the price and seems to hold up well.

Pros
  • A dream come true
Cons
  • confusing
