Review on Pacsafe Metrosafe LS100 Women's Shoulder Handbags & Wallets by Ashley Wood

I would like to start by saying that I am a big fan of Pacsafe products. These are some of the best designer and well made bags available today. And that's what I expected and hoped for in that regard. I'm a minimalist in what I carry, so this bag feels almost big to me (not too big, but roomier than I'm used to). I can easily pack my reading glasses along with my iPhone 11 in an Otterbox case along with all the documents I need to travel (passport, credit cards, ID, cash, etc.) /3 full. But it has a small mark on your body and looks small. It's a Mary Poppins bag. It holds a lot of things due to its small size. The internal organization is exquisite. Pockets for easy access but not many pockets making them fussy inside. There is a built in clip for keys or anything else you can put in it. A tablet fits in this pocket, but only a very small one. A larger tablet or reader will not work. You need a bigger bag. This bag is meant to be carried crossbody and judging by the zippers on the side of the bag it suits the best. wear on the right thigh. This places the position of the locks on the front of your body. Pickpockets don't stand a chance. The strap on this thing is definitely over the top. It's so rare to see anything better than it should be. I swear that strap could lift the car (okay, slightly exaggerating, but not by much). It's VERY thick and heavy and probably shouldn't be that "meaty" for a bag this size. But no one will ever be able to cut the ribbon! So true. In an ideal world, I really think this bag could use an external pocket in the back pocket with a snap button for quick access to a smartphone. But there are many other places for your phone. They're just a little harder to get to. If you're looking for a small, rugged travel workhorse, regardless of your gender, this is a GREAT bag!
