Trip to Italy. Problem #1 I wanted a small bag so I would not load it up too heavy.  Well I really got small.  After I got a very small, flat wallet, a kindle in a leather case and my passport in the main compartment, it was full.  So if you have more than that to carry you need something bigger. Problem #2 The zipper over the main compartment goes across the top and down one side.  You can not get anything in or out of the main compartment without taking the zipper down the side.  The problem comes when you are in a crowded (good for pickpockets) area you can not get the purse zipped without using both hands so if you have purchased anything you with have to lay it down (or have travel companion hold) while you get the compartment zipped and locked.  Good points  #1 I loved the idea that my strap and body of the bag were slash proof and the inside pocket was rfid protected.  #2 The locks also gave a feeling of security but I had to make myself use the one over the main compartment because it was not easy to open. (also not easy for pickpockets to open)  I did not use the lock on the front compartment because it was even more difficult to open - I just didn't put anything important in there.  Would I recomend this bag to a friend?  No.  Would I buy Travelon again?  Maybe
