So today we're going to talk about our favorite bag... anti-theft security bag called Pacsafe.

and it's interesting how I came across this brand. It was about.. I think a year and a half ago?

I think... I went to a local mom and pop shop looking for a bag.

Actually for our trip to Costa Rica and I came across a bag from Pacsafe.

And I was actually drawn to it because I really loved the design

but then when I started looking into it, it had all these cool locks

and I was like why didn't I ever buy a bag like this?

I've been pickpocketed before so I was thinking like man if I had this bag

this would have never happened to me so I immediately bought that bag

and ever since I have been a huge fan and we have actually grown our collection of Pacsafe bags.

So today we're going to show you all thes cool features the bags have

and they also have clothing that's security safe

so if you are into anti-theft accessories, we're going to show you how smart this stuff is.

So first up is the Citysafe CX Anti-theft Tote. I really love this bag.

I wasn't originally looking for anti-theft bags. Candy is more into the anti-theft...

CANDY: I'm paranoid.

No, and it's great because I'm naive and I haven't been...

CANDY: Well, I've been pickpocketed and she hasn't so...

Yeah and that hasn't happened to me and Florida's relatively safe so I don't really think about it

But I'm going to be visiting Barcelona and Lisbon soon and everybody's been scaring me about how

you have to be safe and you have to be protected and you have to make sure you have

all this travel safe gear... so I start looking into more travel safe bags

from Pacsafe and Candy already knew about it so she suggested this tote

and I absolutely love it. I'm definitely taking this with me.

So, first of all... the handy thing here is that they have straps here so you can put like um...

You can take this bag to like yoga. So you can put like a yoga mat in here.

Or you could put a sleeping bag in here if you're like traveling on the road.

CANDY: Or if you have a heavy coat.

Oh yeah, a coat. Or like extra gear.

CANDY: You can be creative.

And then another thing that I really really love about all Pacsafe bags really...

So here's their zipper and then when you put it together... am I doing this right? There we go.

You put it together and they have like this special kind of lock where you put the zipper in

and then push it in so if somebody were to try and open it

they would have to try to figure out how to open this first.

CANDY: There's like 2 steps they have to figure out.

And when I first got this, I'm like "Candy, how do you open this?"

Because I was trying to lift it up and then pull it down... I just couldn't figure it out.

So I think it's smart how they designed it where you actually push and then you take it out.

CANDY: Yeah and then like... sorry, I'm like interrupting her...

Candy knows all about this.

CANDY: So I really like this right here so you don't just put the zipper like this together,

you actually have to lock it in right here

so this is like where it's a two-step. They have to first figure this out and if they figure it out,

okay well hope they can figure this out too. So it takes more time for them to figure stuff out...

which I doubt they'll ever be able to figure it out anyways, but...

CRYSTAL: Right but yeah I mean it's like... I didn't even know this was a step right here.

Now I can't figure it out... oh there we go.

Yeah so love that. Then you know they have features where you can take this buckle off

and put it under or next to your chair... under your chair, I guess.

and wrap it around your chair and lock it so that nobody will steal it.

CANDY: Or if they try to walk away with it, they're gonna get dragged because it's stuck on the chair.

CRYSTAL: And they'll trip and they deserve it.

Hahaha!

And then they also have this in the back, where it's like a clip... take it off and... Oh, it's this way.

And you can take this strap around your chair and then lock it in.

CANDY: Or if it's on a table, that might be more useful cause it's not long.

Whereas this strap is a lot longer. It's multiple uses for that.

CRYSTAL: And inside, lots of compartments I love... well, one of the best features that we love is

that it's all pink inside! And it's just so much easier to tell where all your things are in your bag.

I have a lot of black bags and inside, the interior is also black and it's so hard for me to find things.

So I get bright wallets and stuff so I can find things easily

but this is already pink so it's so much easier to find things.

They have lots of compartments over here,

on the side...

extra sub compartments where you can put like pens. They have zippered pockets

and then on the other side is like a huge pouch with... let's turn it around.

with the big zipper there. And then also in the front, you have a big compartment too.

So I'm definitely going to use this bag in Europe so I can stay safe.

CANDY: Yeah, this is like a nice bag.

CRYSTAL: It is very nice. You can go in style too.

CANDY: So my bag that I'm going to show you... it's the same bag... well, not the same bag but

it's black like hers but it's from the same line called the Citysafe series

and I have been taking this bag with me everywhere. Especially international trips.

Well even domestically. I just use it everywhere now.

CRYSTAL: I also have to mention that this was supposed to be my bag and she took it from me.

CRYSTAL: She was like, "I really like this bag, can I have it?" Hahaha!

Yeah this is before she knew how awesome it was. She's probably regretting it now.

CRYSTAL: Now I'm like, "I would want this bag".

Well, she has the tote now, so... hahaha!

So the same features like that Roobar locking system that's a little tricky.

And this one has... where the handles are... it has a little buckle here which is great.

And the same thing with the zipper, how you snap it together and then... it's kinda hard to like...

There you go. So you snap it together and then you put it in the Roobar.

What's interesting about this bag is that it opens up like a bucket

so when you open it, it automatically opens as a bucket and it's kind of like a little bit hard here.

So you know when you're going through your bags and it just keeps shutting on you ?

Especially when you're trying to find something? It won't do that.

So it stays open for you like a bucket. So that's a really cool feature about this bag

which actually, when I was in Japan and I showed my mom,

she was like, "Oh yeah, that's really popular in Japan now".

CRYSTAL: Yeah and then we started seeing all over the department stores.

CANDY: We were like, "Oh, we're behind!" We didn't know these bucket bags were popular.

CRYSTAL: It's a fad!

CANDY: Yeah, hahaha. It's like, "Are we old? We didn't know about this stuff."

CRYSTAL: We just didn't know.

CANDY: Again, the pink interior lining is great. What's different about this one is that

it actually has a padded sleeve for a laptop. I like that so I don't have to carry a separate laptop case

to keep my laptop padded and... oh, and just like that one, I don't know if Crystal mentioned it

but it's RFID safe I didn't forget to mention there's a pocket in there so I

CRYSTAL: I did forget to mention that.

There's a pocket in there... So, I didn't understand what RFID safe was when I first bought the bag

and apparently those chips that you have in your credit card or your passport

there are scanners out there where people can just steal your information

without ever having to touch it.

CRYSTAL: That's so scary.

CANDY: I mean, it's not super common but it has happened. Not to me but I actually know someone

where they went somewhere and their boyfriend's credit card got scanned

So it does happen but I think pickpocketing is way more frequent than the RFID scanning.

I mean I don't know for sure but that's just what I've read so I mean

regardless, it's nice to have that extra security and so that bag has it and this bag has it

and like the other one, this one has a lot of pockets.

I like the front pocket too. It's got a lot of different...

I already have a lot of stuff in here because I've been using this.

Lot of uh...

CRYSTAL: You got your headphones in there

CANDY: Yup, got my USB charger

CRYSTAL: Some masks, some Japanese masks, of course.

Candy: Lavender oil, hahaha! For my flights, I had to put it in a TSA-approval bag size.

So yeah so... Oh! Another thing too is

so even these zippers, you put it underneath here

I don't know if you can see that little tab. So that way if someone did try to pickpocket

they can't just zip up, so it's pretty hard to like go in there...

CRYSTAL: They really thought of everything.

CANDY: Yeah, so that is an awesome feature.

CRYSTAL: Oh and the water bottle.

CANDY: Yes! The water bottle is my favorite because I hate putting water bottles in the bag.

Just in case it leaks or I hate having to take off my bag...

CRYSTAL: Which happened to me the other day. It leaked. I put a water bottle in and it leaked.

CANDY: Or from condensation, it just gets wet.

CRYSTAL: Mhmmm yeah, that's true.

CANDY: And also I hate having to take off my backpack just to get water.

So it's nice to just kind of go around and grab the water while I'm walking.

And I will say, by far, my favorite feature of this is the sleeve for your suitcase.

Because I hate like carrying it... because this gets heavy when I'm traveling with my gear in here

and my laptop so I want to be able to just lug it around on my suitcase

and usually when you do that with a normal backpack, it just...

no matter how you tie it around, I feel like it always falls over

or it's just not secure and this is a huge lifesaver. All bags should have this.

I don't know why all bags don't have that.

CRYSTAL: They should have that. I agree. I have a camera backpack but I can't put it on my suitcase

and it's so heavy but I just want to put it down sometimes so I can I just have to like

grab it at the same time as my suitcase. Thank God my suitcase is awesome

and it moves around smoothly. But yeah I wish I could just like slide it into the handle part

so I don't have to like worry about it falling down. So yeah it's a great feature.

CANDY: And then the other thing that's similar about this on with the tote bag

is a... this one too, the strap comes off so you can wrap it around the table

or wherever you are to keep it secure. So your eyes aren't like glued to it.

Like say you're at a coffee shop and you want to drink some coffee or reading something

and you want to set it down, like that's a great way to use that

because then you don't have to keep your eye on it all the time.

But still keep it close to you. I wouldn't like just put it somewhere far away.

So that's my favorite bag. Thank you for letting me keep it.

CRYSTAL: Hahaha, you're welcome. Anything for the little sis.

And a new thing that Pacsafe started is travel-safe clothes and this is both...

they do both men and women's and we just recently got the uh... it's called Transit Women.

Transit Woman pant. So these are awesome

everyday pants or you know travel pants and they have safety pockets

or they have lots of pockets in this... so first, they have two side pockets in the front.

Very deep... it goes down pretty deep and there's actually... there's a second

there's a second pocket... there's like a sub-pocket within THE pocket so you know

if you want to store like little things like coins in the sub-pocket, you can put it in there.

CANDY: Note the zipper because you don't want things falling out

like you know how a lot of times, some pants don't have zippers? So that's cool that it has that.

CRYSTAL: I know I feel like there should be a requirement for all pants because

it is really handy to have zippers on your pants and actually jackets too.

So the second... the one on the right the same thing a large pocket

but doesn't have the mini pocket inside and then on...

Which side was it? Oh, this side! On the bottom.

CANDY: Oh yeah! See, we couldn't even find it.

CRYS: I know, it's like so hidden. But this is where you can store your money!

and if you forget to put money in there they remind you with this little symbol

that hey, this is for cash! So you can put your cash in here or anything small really.

And then in the back, they have two huge pockets

again, with zippers and then it goes down pretty far too so you can put in a lot of stuff back here too.

Yeah, pretty deep. So, zippers... And then this part is really cool.

This is where like the traveling part comes in but you can put your passport!

And this is like on the inside of the pants so you wear like this

and on the inside is where you can put your passport. Again, with a zipper.

Again, with an icon that tells you this is for a passport.

And you just flip it over and put your passport and you can put it back in. So it can be nice and secure.
