Pacsafe Citysafe CX Anti-Theft 17L Backpack-Fits 16 inch Laptop, Blush Tan, One Size

I returned the “blush tan” one I purchased because I did not like the color, which does not look like the picture. The actual item is kind of a mix between taupe and mauve. I ended up buying it elsewhere in black. The bag itself is great. I use it for my daily commute (which involves about 2 miles of walking). Large interior capacity (which is large enough to hold my lunch, a stack of documents, and all of my usual purse items, with room to spare, could probably also accommodate a slim laptop and a cardigan or light jacket, even with all the other contents). The outer side pockets are perfect for a water bottle and umbrella, and the front pocket holds my keys and small miscellaneous items. Note that the front pocket does NOT lock (the zipper just slides through a band of fabric), so I would not recommend using that pocket for valuables, particularly if wearing the bag in a crowd or high-theft area. The locking feature on the top is a nice feature, both attractive and appears to provide good security, once you figure out how to work it. LOVE that the straps can be tucked into the luggage handle sleeve on the back so it can be carried from the top handle (which I switch to when I get to the office). The bag is comfortable to wear for me (I am 5’7” and have the straps adjusted to the shortest length), but I agree with other reviewers that it would likely sit too low on a petite person’s back and probably not be comfortable that way. The only thing I would change is the pink interior - it does make things easy to find inside, but I’m just not a pink person and would prefer a neutral color like beige or tan. Still giving it 5 stars for functionality and looks.

I saw this bag in one of this high priced luggage stores. Initially I was impressed by the cute color, but after the store clerk demonstrated all this bag had to offer I knew I had to have it! I went on a 10 day trip across Europe. We did a few days in Paris, then Italy, then Greece, and lastly we did a day trip to London. When I say this bag was my best friend all the way, it could not be overstated. This bag was the perfect personal item on my flights and the best of all was using it for day trips as well as shopping. There is a lot of pickpockets but I felt completely secure even in the crowded areas with my bag locked. It has a million pockets and compartments for storing things like water bottles, Ipads and even a change of clothes. I used this bag every day all day and it held up nicely. Greece was super dusty so we came back pretty dirty. I was able to wipe the bag down and it was like new again. The best part for me was this bag is pretty and light weight. I have problems with my back and can’t do a lot of weight like with my regular backpack. This was totally worth every penny! I would purchase it again and have recommended to all my friends and family. Oh the other great thing about this bag is that your things are securely locked away so you don’t have to walk around with your backpack across your chest. So many people are walking around Europe that way trying to avoid pickpockets. Save yourself the trouble and just buy the bag!!!

LOVE LOVE LOVE my Pacsafe Backpack. I used it for my trip to Ireland since I was told that the weather was very unpredictable and that I should carry a light jacket and umbrella with me at all times. I got back from my trip a month a go and I'm still using the backpack for work because it's so functional, has a place for everything and it's light weight and can hold lots of stuff in it, without looking bulky. It's very sleek and stylish and the color I purchased was very easy to match with all my outfits.

There’s a lot to like about this backpack. It’s well made, looks good and fits a fair amount of stuff. (I use this for daily commuting, not travel. ) The padding for a laptop is perfectly adequate so no sleeve required. The internal pockets are well designed. Like several others, I have had issues with the zippers needing extra coaxing to close, which is becoming more pronounced. Also, I had to make a small adjustment to the zipper hardware as sharp points were sticking out. The shoulder straps cannot be adjusted to be a small as I’d like and the backpack hangs quite low. I’m a bit smaller than average but not petite. Because of the slide-y type material that the backpack is made of, even the adjustments that I can make to the straps don’t hold very well.

Wanted a feminine backpack for work and travel. While researching different backpacks, I stumbled upon this one. It arrived just as pictured. Very roomy. Hold my notebook, 13" computer, two cell phones, computer cable, and misc items. Absolutely love this backpack and highly recommend to smaller women with petite frames. I'm 5'2" and 100 lbs. This backpack does not pull on my shoulders nor feel like I have an elephant sitting on my back. 5 stars!

Love the color, it's slightly darker than the photo, more of a chestnut color. Will be perfect to use instead of a large purse on trip to Ireland.

Bought the matching crossbody also. This backpack was great - could fit water bottles in the side pockets and love the way it opens super wide at the top. The only thing I noticed is that it made my back sweat on a super hot day in Rome, but I'm pretty sure that any backpack would have done that. LOVE the fabric and the functionality.
