The top performers made it onto our list. Then we did everything possible to break into them, including some slash tests. First, we packed them full of the kind of essential belongings for which one might use an anti-theft backpack. We researched some of the best options on the market, then took them into our New York testing lab. And aesthetically, we’re happy to announce that these backpacks have graduated beyond basic black and gray to become increasingly stylish. Luckily, brilliant designers have you covered: Anti-theft backpacks are more secure than ever with features like locking zippers, RFID-blocking technology, and even slash-proof material. If you’re toting your tech around where pickpockets are prevalent, you’ll want to keep things secure so you don’t have to deal with an unpleasant theft that interrupts your vacation. The contents we pack into them are becoming increasingly expensive, though: Our smartphones are worth several hundred dollars, and our tablets and laptops are worth far more.
Backpacks are super-handy for carrying everything you need while traveling.
