Anti theft cross body bags -any recommendations. I’ve been looking at the Wander+, so would love to hear any feedback on this, or any other suggestions please. Thanks all xx

I don’t really understand the ‘anti theft’ aspect because I travel a lot and just think cross bodies of various sizes and shapes are nice. This strays into ‘looks like a paranoid tourist’ land.

I have had a small lululelon crossbody I got in Canada for ages. Just phone, fan, cards sized. And a Carhart which is a little bigger and can fit a bit more. Both rectangular and smaller than the Wander.

Is it for home or abroad?

Tbh I’d never heard of them before either but I was looking for a small bag for trips and saw the Wander and it sounded good. My current cross body is hip positioned so not perfect in a crowd, this one is chest positioned. Just wondered if any good or the usual ‘looks fab online and terrible irl’!

I've got a Foldie for travel. You could have it across your chest, or a bit lower. I wore mine like a regular cross body bag but slight in front iyswim. It's good - reasonable size, secure back pocket & you can clip the front pocket zip to stop it from being opened too easily.

OP - did you get the Wander + in the end? Be interested in a real review of it from you

No I didn’t, not got anything yet. Still debating. You fancy going first??? Xx
