I do baby the backpack though since it was a $100+ investment. I don't use that one much when I'm hiking, I'll take the security insert out and use it with another bag when I'm hiking/swimming, but I keep the original backpack for airports and day travel around a city when I'm less apt to ruin it in the woods.

I purchased one a few months ago (in 2008) and raved about how great it was to friends and fellow travellers -until BOTH outside zips on the bag started splitting open by themselves - less than 6 months after purchasing the bag. This suggests cheap zips and somewhat undermines the security value of the bag - particularly when you are walking in a dodgy area and the zips split open behind you without you knowing. I´ve owned other bags for years and never had this problem. Replacing zips is expensive and annoying. I wish Pacsafe would use better quality zips then they would have a good product. Unfortunately I can´t recommend this product. The PacSafe Day Safe 100 is a great concept.

Just bought one for a day bag to go on a world trip with. It is fantastic and very secure. I will usually leave the safe tote bag inside the main backpack to stop theives slashing your bag while you are walking about and stealing whatever falls out. However, it is also handy if you need to leave some stuff in your hotel room while you go out to eat and don't want to carry the bag around with you. Will deter hotel staff and other theives looking for a quick score. I will ALWAYS use a concealed money belt though. I will not let my money or passport any further away from me than resting against my skin! It is also just a great backpack. Most comfortable bag I have ever worn. Just buy one! Highly recommended.
