Where the protection really comes from
Position first. A bag worn across your chest stays in your line of sight, which a backpack never does. That is why this collection is mostly chest and crossbody bags: the lock or the hidden zip comes second, as backup. If you would rather carry on your back, our anti-theft backpacks solve the same problem with the main zip pressed against your back.
Four features, and when each one matters
- Combination lock: the zip pullers lock together. The strongest deterrent, and the least convenient if you open the bag all day.
- Hidden zip: the opening sits on the body side or under a flap, invisible from outside. Enough for most city commutes.
- RFID pocket: a lining that blocks contactless card skimming. A bonus rather than a reason to buy.
- USB port: charge your phone without opening the bag. It is a pass-through, so you still need a power bank inside.
Frequently asked questions
Can a sling bag hold a laptop?
Most are sized for a phone, wallet, keys and passport. For a computer, look at the laptop model in this collection, built for 15.6 inch screens.
Is PU leather a good choice?
Yes. It looks sharp with a jacket, shrugs off rain and needs very little care. Nylon and polyester are lighter and wipe clean in seconds.
