#1 Women’s Anti-Theft Tailored Backpack by Travelon
The Travelon Anti-Theft Tailored Backpack looks much more fashionable than the average anti-theft bag on the market. It is spacious and had plenty of room to carry my wallet, camera, sunglasses and cell phone. The bag is slash-proof and the zippers of the main pocket lock together to make it more difficult for a pickpocket to access. I carried this bag all around Ecuador and didn't have any issues with pickpockets while my friend carried a regular backpack and had someone steal some cash from an outside pocket.

#2 Anti-theft Signature Slim Backpack by Travelon
Travelon's Anti-Theft Signature Slim Backpack is the perfect Anti-Theft Travel Bag for your upcoming trip. I have a ruptured disc in my back and traveling with a crossbody bag usually contributes to increased lower back pain. With Travelon's Anti-Theft Signature Slim Backpack, I can wear a bag that disperses the weight evenly across by back and not worry about pickpockets in European cities.

#3 Anti-Theft Classic Slouch Hobo by Travelon
Travelon bags are great anti theft bags. I used the crossbody bag when I was traveling Italy. They have multiple sizes, styles, and colors. The material is cut proof and easy to clean. The zippers have clips on the ends so that you can't easily open them. They also have RFID blocking technology so your card numbers stay safe. My favorite travel bag so far.

#4 Citysafe CS200 Anti-Theft Travel Purse/Handbag by Pacsafe
I don't have one, but TWO in different colors. I bought my first one after I was robbed of my passport and money in Beijing when I did the unthinkable - I carried my valuables in my backpack. My bag and I have been inseparable ever since. Because it's a cross-body, I can put it on and forget about it. It's extremely light, but roomy. I can actually fit my small Macbook Air into it. All I have to do is slip my iPhone into the pocket and I'm all set.
This bag is full of locks and secret compartments. The main compartment zipper locks and that means everything of value I have is safe. I have tried a number of other bags but I keep coming back to this one.

#5 Anti-Theft Classic Mini Shoulder Bag by Travelon
Travelon bags strike that delicate balance between reliable anti-theft technology and good design. Many anti-theft bags scream tourist and thereby place a target on your back. Each of Travelon's many styles are inconspicuous and help you blend into the local crowd. I have traveled extensively in destinations with high rates of petty theft. Thanks to my Travelon bag, I have never strapped on a body belt to carry my valuables.

#7 Anti-theft Cross Body Bag by Lewis N. Clark
This bag has an RFID blocking card and passport section so you know your personal information is protected. It has slash resistant mesh on the inside. If a thief tries to cut your bag open while you’re walking, your belongings will be safe inside the mesh inserts. The shoulder strap is also cut proof.
