Why Women Should Choose a Stylish Anti-theft Backpack

Most women love a stylish handbag, whether for day to day or travel. They also love a practical bag, especially for travel. When it comes to comfort and practicality, a trendy backpack is often the better choice.

A backpack will be easier on your back, especially when carrying a bit of weight for long periods. They also leave your hands free, making travel, sightseeing and day to day commuting so much easier.

Having a fashionable and cute anti-theft backpack will also help you stand out less like a tourist and blend in like a local when you travel, which can go a long way to keeping you safe. It’s no wonder I list anti-theft backpacks in my Guide to Women’s Travel Essentials.

Until recently, backpacks have always been considered easy targets by thieves. It’s hard to know if someone has unzipped your bag when you don’t have your eye or hand on it, especially in a crowd.

It’s one of the reasons I have always been a big advocate for a crossbody bag for travel – you can keep it close to you and your hand on it, especially in crowded situations. Crossbody sling backpacks are also good for this reason – you can swing them around to the front if you are concerned about pickpockets.

Thankfully, now, with advancements in anti-theft travel gear as far as technology and design in the backpack market, the backpack is no longer a prime target for pickpockets. Ladies can opt for practicality and comfort without the fear of being a target for thieves.

And, in a market previously aimed at men, There are now trendy backpacks for women with a choice of some seriously stylish anti-theft backpacks that add style to function.

Anti Theft Backpacks for Women Buying Guide and Tips

What is an Anti-theft Backpack?

An anti-theft backpack is a backpack designed principally for travellers with built-in features that prevent or deter theft. Security features to prevent thieves from stealing the contents of the backpack. Or succeeding in a grab and go robbery, commonly known as a bag snatch.

Anti theft technology is a concept that has caught on beyond the travel sphere. Anti-theft bags are now used widely for day to day use, especially for regular city commuters.


Stay Safe When You Travel: 10 Travel Safety Tips to Put in Place Before You Go.


Previously, safety and style rarely came together with anti theft bags – practicality and function mostly always won over style or fashion. And, most anti-theft backpacks were designed with men in mind.

Thankfully, several travel safe brands have stepped up to bring a female design element to anti theft women’s backpacks without scrimping on the core safety features. 

We have put together this guide reviewing anti-theft backpacks for women that are secure, practical, and stylish.

What Features Should a Good, Stylish Anti-theft Backpack for Women Have?

When deciding on the best stylish anti-theft backpack, women should consider some of the following features and practicalities to choose an anti-theft backpack that is safe and suits both your style and lifestyle.

  1. Cut-proof or Slash-proof Backpack Material
    One common method thieves use is cutting or slashing through the bags material in a crowded situation to get to your belongings. Some will even cut through the strap and run away with the entire bag.
    A good anti-theft bag will have a tough outer shell and straps, preferably with cut-proof or slash-proof material to prevent this type of robbery.
  2. Hidden/Locking Zippers
    When selecting an anti-theft backpack, look for a bag that has sturdy zippers that are properly reinforced into the backpack’s material. The bag should also feature either lockable or hidden zippers for maximum anti-theft protection. Many will have both.
  3. Secret Pockets
    Secret pockets make it difficult for robbers to get to valuable items inside your backpack. Secret pockets are not just the internal pockets, they can also be external pockets that aren’t visible from outside, like on the shoulder straps, on the back or side of the backpack. External secret pockets should have hidden or anti-theft zipper mechanism.
  4. RFID Blocking
    Tech-savvy thieves can steal your credit card information, mobile phone information and other documents electronically. Anti-theft backpacks that use RFID (radio frequency identification) blocking materials (nickel or copper) block electromagnetic fields from being transmitted to or from your backpack.
    Many good anti-theft backpacks will have RFID blocking pockets where you can store your cards, passport, or documents that carry electronic information.

Choosing the Right Anti-theft Backpack Purse

Having travelled full time for over five years, we know the importance of having a safe and lightweight backpack. But I also like to have versatile bags, especially for travel. This is why a good anti theft backpack should be both safe and stylish. Why carry two bags when I can have one that will cover me for all my travel situations?

We researched hundreds of products to select the most reliable and stylish anti-theft backpacks on the market. These selections are based on my experience as a female traveller who uses anti-theft backpacks and expects practicality and versatility in my travel gear.

We have selected these stylish anti-theft backpacks for women based on the following criteria:
Style: Because women shouldn’t have to compromise on style. A design that is not just practical but also stylish also makes it a much more versatile bag.
Comfort: The backpack should be lightweight and comfortable to wear for long periods, even when fully loaded.
Durability: The fabric or material of the backpack must stand up to rough wear and constant use and still look good.
Anti-theft design: Consider the anti-theft features along with the design and style of the bag. Does it have the features you need along with a style you like? It won’t keep you safe if you don’t want to wear it.
Size: Consider carefully the size you need. Too large, and you could unnecessarily overload yourself just because you have space.
Weight: An empty bag shouldn’t weigh so much you blow your carry on allowance before you have everything you need in your bag.
Pocket arrangement: An ideal backpack should have multiple pockets for the proper organisation of travel essentials. But make sure external pockets have suitable theft deterrents.

Tips For Keeping Yourself Safe While Travelling

While anti-theft backpacks will help keep your belongings safe, it is not a complete guarantee against theft. Here are a few quick tips to keep you and your backpack safe:

You can find our complete safe travel guide with the best anti-theft travel gear reviews here.

  • On public transport, try to keep your backpack to your front with your arms looped through the straps.
  • In cafe and restaurant situations, if your backpack has lockdown straps, use them where practical to secure the bag to a fixed object such as a chair or table to prevent grab and run theft. But never leave your bag unattended in this way.
  • Do not pack important things like tablet, passport, or camera in outside pockets. Unless in a secure, hidden pocket with antitheft protection for items you regularly access. Internal pockets are still the best.
  • Only carry what cash and cards you need. Do not keep all the cash or cards in your backpack, leave some in your accommodations safe so you don’t get caught short. Keep a little cash or spare card hidden in your clothes pocket in case of emergency, pickpocket-proof clothing has hidden pockets for this.
  • Do your research and know the safety status of the destination you are travelling to, prepare yourself and act accordingly while you are there.
  • Invest in good travel gear. Don’t scrimp when it comes to safety.
  • Make sure you have appropriate insurance.

Whatever happens, always remember that your personal safety is more important than your materialistic belongings.
