Which PacSafe model do I need?

To calculate the volume of the item to be secured, please multiply the length, by the height by the width.PacSafe anti-theft backpack & bag protectors are designed to fit almost every type of backpack, soft-sided wheeled luggage, and duffel bags.

For maximum security, calculate the volume of the item to be secured and choose the correct PacSafe according to the following guidelines:

NOTE 1: The PacSafe model name is based on the maximum number of litres the model will fit to make it easier to remember volume and sizing.

NOTE 2: If you intend to attach gear to the outside of a pack (e.g. sleeping bag, sleeping mat, tent, etc.), then add approximately 1000 cubic inches / 16 Litres per item to the total bag / pack volume.

How do you fit the PacSafe to a backpack so that you can still wear the backpack?

The PacSafe secure backpack and bag protector is designed so that a Backpack can still be worn with the PacSafe secured. When the PacSafe is attached, you will notice a piece of small plastic tubing located on the PacSafe mesh near the location of the waist harness on either side. The waist harness simply passes between the mesh where the tubing is located and the thicker draw wire before it is cinched tight.

If you want the PacSafe mesh to remain tight, it may be necessary to undo the webbing attaching the shoulder straps and feed it through the PacSafe netting. Alternatively, you can simply loosen the PacSafe net (by going down a few beads on the draw wire) until the pack sits comfortably on your back.

What do the airlines think?

In most countries, it is perfectly acceptable to lock you gear up with your Pacsafe before checking in. If in doubt, ask the staff at the check-in counter. If travelling to/from/within the United States & UK, we recommend that you leave the PacSafe off your luggage during air transit (or at least wait until it has been inspected and permission has been given to lock your luggage).

It should be noted that the PacSafe was originally designed as a destination product for use in accommodation, public transport, left luggage areas, trailheads, etc.
