If you were traveling the world, bringing your mobile office with you, computers and other tools you use to earn a living, would you feel safe leaving them in a hotel room? What if the hotel room was in a poor country known for theft? We think this is a major security issue! So after some research, we decided to bring a portable safe with us!

Our Portable Safe

Now I know most of you are thinking that this looks very little like a safe, in fact it looks just like an ordinary backpack. But under the layer of weather-protective cloth lies a mesh of stainless steel cable that protects the contents from all but the most determined of thieves.

As we jostle among crowds on busy streets it helps protect against slash and grab theft. Even the straps have steel cables to protect them from being cut out from under you.

When we’re trying out some food at a local restaurant, we can latch the strap to the table to prevent it from being snatched! And when we need to leave our belongings in a hotel room where staff may earn less in a month than what many people make a day, we can use the integrated steel cable and lock to loop around some non-removable object and prevent a thief from snatching the whole pack.

How the mesh looks under the cloth. The cable coming out is what is used to secure it to a fixed object.

Did we test it out? No, we didn’t want to cut up our new backpack only to discover that the steel cables took a lot of work to break But if we’re unlucky enough to have someone try to slash it somewhere in the world, we hope that at least our belongings will be safe
