Travelon
4.9
(16)
"Travelon and Baggelini have been my go-to's for safe and well-organized travel bags. Travelon is better if you are going anywhere you will be concerned with pickpockets."
"I like travelon and baggalini bags"
"Love Travelon! I have a couple and find myself reaching for them for daily use, not just travel."
"The Travelon crossbody bucket bag is what I always recommend in these topics. I'm about to get a new one since the old one finally wore out (after about 8 years)."
"I have a few Travelon bags in different sizes and I love them all, I'd recommend the brand too."
"I love my Travelon anti theft crossbody. It comes in several sizes and styles."
"I have a Travelon cross body bag and I love it! It has theft proof features that got put to the test on my last trip."
"I love my Travelon. I've had it 4 years now and I swear by it."
"Travelon. The straps have wires to make them hard to cut, most of the zippers have clip locks, etc. I carry it across my front and with people around me, have my hand on it."
"The Travelons have a metal cord in the strap so it can't be cut off you. Also, the zippers clip in, so you have to unclip to get into the bag."
