What the label means in fittings: the main zip faces your back, and a flap covers it.

1 sets

The bag is 12.2 inches across, 12.6 tall and 5.3 deep: a handbag with two straps rather than a rucksack. The fitting behind the label is straightforward: the main zip is set on the panel that rests against your back when the bag is on, and a flap covers the opening, so the opening faces you and stays out of reach until the bag comes off.

That is a fitting and not a promise, and it is worth saying plainly. Pocket picking and purse snatching are counted as their own category in the national victimization survey, and no bag removes them; what a back zip does is make the bag slower to open than one with the zip facing outward. Everything else, where you stand on a train, what you leave in an outside pocket, is still yours to decide.

The $37.99 to $39.99 on this page and the prices across the Soperwillton range were updated together, so they compare fairly.

Questions

Questions about the Soperwillton anti-theft backpack

What keeps a Soperwillton backpack shut while you are in a crowd?

The main zip is on the panel against your back and a flap covers it, so the opening is not reachable while the bag is worn. Those are the fittings; the page does not claim more than that.

Can you still get into the bag quickly yourself?

Lift it off one shoulder and swing it round to the front. That is the trade: the same thing that slows a hand behind you slows yours.

Is there an outside pocket you can reach while wearing it?

There is, and it is the one to keep empty of anything you would mind losing. The protected space is behind the flap.
