7 reasons I carry this bag on every layover
I land in a new city every few days. This is the one bag that comes off the plane with me. This Black Friday every bag comes with a second one free.
Different airport, different metro, same problem: crowds are where bags get opened, and nobody feels it happen.
The trick I learned early is simple: keep what matters in front of you, where your eyes and hands already are. For me that is one slim crossbody, the FlyHugz Anti-Theft Bag.
Here are the 7 reasons it lives in my crew bag.
Crowds are where bags get opened
Arrivals halls, taxi queues, the train into town. On a layover you are tired and distracted, exactly when a bag gets opened.
Wear it in front and that problem mostly goes away.
Hidden zips, slash-resistant strap
The zips sit flat against my chest under a flap. The strap and fabric are slash-resistant, so a quick cut and grab is much harder.
Cards behind an RFID-blocking lining
Passport, cards and hotel key come with me every trip. They sit behind the RFID-blocking lining, so I stopped worrying about the brush past on the metro.
Every bag comes with a second one FREE
2 bags for $24.95 each. Buy 2 Get 2 adds 4 FREE sleep masks.

Passport out of its slot, phone out of the snap pocket, bag never leaves my body.
I look like I live there
A big "security" backpack tells every pickpocket on the platform you are a tourist. This passes for a normal crossbody and disappears under a jacket.
One bag replaced my backpack
Passport, cards, phone, earbuds, charger, hotel key and a little cash, each in its own pocket.
Rain on the walk to the hotel
The water-resistant Oxford wipes clean after rain, coffee and winter slush.
Why I got two
I gave the second bag to my partner, who travels with me on days off. Now neither of us carries a backpack into a city.
Take Buy 2 Get 2 and every bag comes with its own sleep mask, the best part on a red eye. $24.95 per bag.
