Review on πŸŽ’ Pacsafe's Unisex Citysafe Anti-Theft Backpack: Top Choice for Casual Daypacks by Jeremy Edwards

Revainrating 4 out of 5

The best of what was missing

This Pacsafe backpack has many great features (anti-theft, large opening, incredibly spacious). But two shortcomings continue to bother me: 1. Zippers close with difficulty. Due to the wide opening of the main compartment, it can only be opened when the zips are fully open, but closing the zip again usually requires two hands. It's not ideal when you're in a crowded room or when you're traveling. I often have to put my bag down to open or close it. This design may be purposeful, but it's actually just really annoying. 2. The straps are too long! The straps are just not adjustable enough. I'm average height and even fully dressed (which never stays tight in use) the straps don't keep them on my back. With a bottle of water, a book, and a laptop, that's a lot of uneven weight to cause pain after a long day. Just having the straps snug against your back would alleviate that pain. Overall I still like the quality, looks and small details. The side water bottle pockets are very narrow and deep, but don't hang around, so I can pack and unpack my water bottle easily and stow small things safely. a version of the backpack that converts into a backpack. Currently there is a handbag and one shoulder combo, but without two straps to turn it into a small backpack, it doesn't cost me more than $100 for long trips. Great bag for commuting trips. Don't worry about the people in my stuff.

Pros
  • Sleek design
Cons
  • Big and chunky
