PacsafeVibe 100 4 Liter Anti Theft Fanny Pack-Fits 7 inch Tablet Waist, Black

I was looking for a theft proof hip-pack for my medical supplies and probably my phone for travel. I compared this very expensive model to a lesser expensive model of the main competition. This has a fair amount of room in that the pockets can expand outward if needed for more cargo. The front pocket goes all the way to the bottom so it is very usable whereas others often do not and the pocket ca be tiny. The hardware is amazingly robust. The zipper pulls are really easy to handle because they are large enough. The locking mechanism of the zipper pulls is ingenious and after a few trial runs, easy to learn and open and close quickly. The belt is also strong and well made and the closure again is unique and once you get the order of the opening moves, it is much easier to open than the usual pinch latch type closure. There also is a nice padded divider in the main pocket that is perfect for a big phone and large enough that it is easy to get the phone in or out very quickly. I think they advertise it for a small tablet. While this choice is the most expensive of all the models I looked at, it clearly is extremely well made and the hardware is really high quality. I am very glad I spent the extra money - I feel I got real value and function.

Took it with me to Paris. The straps are protected so it's difficult to cut them. Wore easily over my shoulder. Locking mechanism works very well and fairly quickly. The two pockets are pretty big. Only problem I had was adjusting the straps. Somebody did it for me. Recommended.

In short I would definitely recommend this waist pack as a great, secure way, of carrying your everyday items. The size is good for what I would like to carry. The locking mechanism is very easy to use. As mentioned in video reviews, the zipper pulls are noisy but the bag is meant to be secured so this shouldn't be considered a deal breaker.I only have a few minor criticisms:- I would like to have a slightly longer, but just as flat, front pouch. I found the length to be just a little short causing those quick access items bulge inward and take away from the inner main pouch, although not much. But it would be better if it was slightly longer, as there is space on the front of the main compartment pouch. The bulging is not noticeable from the front of the pack. Which is good.- The second criticism to have a zipper for the RFID compartment instead of velcro., It does make it easy to get to your cards once the main pouch is opened, which some may prefer, but I think it would add one more layer of theft prevention should you not remember to use the locking mechanism.- Wish the slide for the locking mechanism was metal instead of plastic. Although that would possibly add to the noise along with the zipper pulls.- Something to reduce the clankiness of the zipper pulls.(Heat shrink is the only solution that can be used to quiet the main compartment zipper pulls as paracord would get in the way of the passive interlinking locking the two zippers have.)The subdued security features like the wire woven strap and mesh on the front to make it cut resistant are a huge reason why I like this pack. It looks like just a standard waist pack. Overall the pack is well designed, the materials are very durable, and the security features are great. Be sure to watch the video reviews.

I once left my Pacsafe Vibe 325 bag connected to a handrail in India and walked away for a moment. When I came back, there were people trying—unsuccessfully—to figure out how to take it. It was a perfect proof of concept for what Pacsafe’s designs are meant to do: to deter the opportunistic thief.The Pacsafe Vibe 100 seems just as well-built. It has a surprisingly spacious interior for its size, fitting more than I initially expected.

You will pay for this product more than lower priced products of its kind BUT you get what you pay for. This is an excellent product for people on the go . This pack safe locks and not only that the straps are reinforced so they cannot be cut. The product is easy and comfortable to carry. This is a great product for around 90 dollars and I believe it will last for a long time.

wanted a crossbody-hip waist combo that stays “out of my way” and was larger than my pacsafe purse and smaller than my backpack. this is perfect for my daily use. solid construction that lasts for years of being tossed around. the anti-theft system and rfid protection are a plus.

I have a few PacSafe bags. We travel a lot, and I have a bad shoulder, so backpacks and crossbodies are out for me. This on is spacious and secure. I can fit all of my needs for a day of hiking or sightseeing in this bag - sunglasses, water, wallet, my inhaler, and more. I can even fit my packable rainj acket inside! There are other more fashionable bags by PacSafe, but this one is good for me. I wear it as a waist pack. If you are going to Europe and you want to carry a bag, get one from PacSafe. They cost more, but they last. Last year, I made the mistake of getting a anti-theft bag from another company. The bag kept coming undone and falling off of me! Not very secure. Not only that, the hardware turned color after 3 months! I'm sticking with PacSafe from now on.

My husband and son took turns carrying this bag, which was a huge win since it meant I didn't have to carry their stuff. Nice size, good security features.
