Anti-theft backpack: your belongings safe in the city and on the road
An anti-theft backpack is a backpack whose main compartments cannot simply be opened while you wear it: with a zip on the back side, a hidden pocket against your back or a rolltop closure. This collection holds the models by Samsonite, Kapten & Son, Cabaia, Beagles and Castelijn & Beerens, mostly with a laptop compartment up to 15.6 or 17.3 inches.
How does an anti-theft backpack protect against pickpockets?
A pickpocket aims for a zip they can pull open unseen on a crowded tram. On these backpacks that zip sits against your back, under a flap or hidden in a rolltop, and there is a separate pocket for phone and wallet close to your body. Want to shield your cards as well? Have a look at the RFID card holders.
Which model suits you?
For work and study, choose a model with a padded laptop compartment from the laptop backpacks. Travelling with hand luggage? The compact models fit the cabin backpacks. For cycling and rain, the rolltops by Beagles and Samsonite and the waterproof backpacks are the best fit.
Material and care
The backpacks are made of sturdy polyester, recycled PET or PU leather with a reinforced base. Clean stains with a slightly damp cloth and mild soapy water; let the backpack dry open at room temperature. Check the zips now and then for sand and grit.
