Arden CoveFull Anti-Theft Waterproof Cross-Body Bag with Slash-resistant Chain Strap w/Classic Hardware

This bag was absolutely perfect for a recent trip to Rome. I was very worried about pick pocketers and this worked well. I felt very safe the entire time. The zippers aren't easy to slide open and get in but that's the point. You'll deff feel resistance if someone tries to open your bag. Love the clips to secure on the sides to keep it locked. I bought a replacement strap from the brand and love it.

I never travel with my high-end fashion purses, but wanted a stylish option when traveling in international cities where pickpockets are well known! This purse locks each compartment securely, and still looks super cute. I highly recommend.

I used this purse extensively when I traveled to Europe this summer. It was large enough to carry my two eyeglass cases, cell phone, wallet, lipstick. The two separate zippered compartments have a locking feature that prevents pick-pockets from getting easily into the bag. I felt so confident walking around Europe that none of my personal items or information were being stolen that it made the trip soooo much nicer. In addition, it IS water-proof(Got caught in a downpour in Scotland & the contents inside stayed dry).I would highly recommend getting this purse!!

I wanted to like this purse, but I wish it had a strap instead of a chain. When traveling abroad and walking, I don’t want a chain digging into my shoulder. So that was disappointing. The size also wasn’t what I needed and when evaluating those two things, the cost was just too expensive.

I like the size of the purse. It is perfect. However, I dislike the spaces for credit cards and the like because they are too tight. Very difficult to get cards in and out. My only other dislike is that the zippers are difficult to open and close; however, I assume that is what makes it difficult for petty thieves to get into it quickly.

I spent a lot of time researching this purse and comparing it to other brands. I got this for my trip to Vegas because I didn’t want anything stolen. I was torn between getting this regular size or the mini size because I hate big purses. I’m so glad I got the regular size. It was perfect for storing everything I needed for the trip (and remember in trios you tend to carry more stuff like maps). In the main pocket I was able to fit 2 epi pens, my iPhone 8, business cards, 2 folded maps, sunglasses, chapstick, rollerball perfume, and my birth control fit perfectly in the zippered pocket. I still had plenty of room in the section. The small section was great for all my credit cards and still had plenty of room for holding other things. The structured design was great because nothing got smooshed. The chain didn’t irritate my neck or shoulders and I have sensitive skin. I got the recommended size chain that’s I think the 20” middle size and it was perfect. I’m 5’4” and I wouldn’t have wanted a longer or shorter size chain.

Just back from 2 weeks in Athens and Greek Islands and loved this purse for travel. It has all the security options that give piece of mind but it's also cute enough to take for an evening out. It's smaller than what I typically carry but I found the interior design meant I eliminated a wallet and other internal holdalls, plus the position of the purse cross body made it a perfect location to easily get to passport, phone, etc.

Update: I've had the bag for a little more than a year now, and it has started to tear by the smaller compartment. It gives me issues every time I try to close it. And I got the ivory color and it stains very easily and I cannot get it clean. I would suggest finding a different product.The bag tore at the front pocket seam, right by the zipper, so now I can't use it...The other complaint I have is the chain ALWAYS getting all twisted. No matter how many times I straighten it out, it still gets twisted if I take it off just one time...
