Invaluable for travel
I bought this item specifically for a trip I just completed around the globe. I spent most of my time in Asia traveling and walking in multiple situations including aircraft, buses, taxis, chartered vehicles, trikes, jeepneys, and ferries. I went to crowded places like huge malls and supermarkets, outdoor night markets, nightclubs, restaurants and very isolated places like old churches and off the beaten path beaches. In every situation I had this item with me around my neck and it worked beautifully in every situation. My passport, travel documents, credit cards, key cards, cell phone, and cash all fit easily and securely in the multiple pockets. There is a zippered pouch at the top for important items like keys or credit cards you will need for that day. Everything fits securely and is readily available, easily concealed and secured underneath your clothing. The neck straps are not visible from the rear making it very difficult to be cut without your knowledge. My suggestions for improvement are three: make it in different colors to blend with clothing making the neck straps less visible; add a stop to the side zipper as it is possible this could slide risking the loss of some items; eliminate the small mesh pocket and simply add another deep pocket. That pocket is simply too shallow to realistically use in a travel setting. Overall, though, this product was invaluable to me day after day no matter where I was or watt I was doing.

Love at first use
Love at first use! The large compartment fits my 6s plus and boarding passes perfectly. I used the front compartment for my secrid leather card case and the side section for cash and passport. I appreciate the shiny ripstop material used on this product because of its natural resistance to fading and ability to wick off moisture. A former fan of the Victorinox pouches for durability, I found myself purchasing these every three months because that's how long it would take before the material began to fade. So why only 3 stars? The side zipper no longer stays zipped so so I can't confidently secure my passport or cash in this compartment. Additionally, the neck strap is made of a shoelace type material that has proven to be a lint magnet and the plastic part used for adjusting the length is too loose, requiring constant readjustment. I would definitely purchase this item again once the manufacturer improves the neck strap and zipper closures and includes RFID technology. Another suggestion would be to add an open pocket in the back where I can silently slip my phone in and out during meetings. Velcro is so loud.

A Picky Reviewer Would Redesign It to Meet Her Personal Whims...
The passport holder was sturdy and matches the description - however it didn't meet my personal picky requirements. If I were to re-design this item, I would have made it about an inch longer. My boarding passes were too tall to fit into the tallest pocket so I wasn't able to 'close' it without bending them. Also, I wouldn't keep money in the side zipper section because the zipper tended to go down on it's own a little too much for my comfort, especially when travelling in certain cities. Also - my biggest complaint was that the strap was about a foot too short. I guess if I were too just hang it around my neck and have it rest on my chest I would be fine with the length, but I prefer to carry these items like a messenger bag - with the strap over my neck, across my back/chest with the bag resting on the opposite side. The strap - even fully extended - was too short for this. I am very picky about these types of items - so you may want to disregard my review. But I personally would not purchase it again.

Absolutely perfect for my travel needs
Quality is excellent, including extra stitching where strap attaches to the neck stash. The main reason I bought this product was to carry two items while I was in the airport: Passport and boarding pass. The back two pockets are perfect size for this (each slides out easily). Velcro makes it so easy at security and gate to get boarding pass and passport out. Then once in plane I take it off my neck and into my sling bag. So with only 2 flips of the velcro, I'm on the plane. I hated it before trying to fight zippers to get to these items. I also carry my galaxy s-5 phone, any other boarding passes (the one with luggage claim tag), copy of my original ticket purchase, a few dollars, and there is still extra room for luggage lock keys, etc. And it's RFID blocking on each and every pocket. The people who designed and built this neck stash really knew what they were doing. Hope they one day make a sling bag also.

Pouch too long, shows beneath shirt
I purchased this for an extended trip to Europe and the Middle East, particularly as I was going to be shifting between three or four currencies. I liked its weight, and it appeared durable. I bought it partly for its RFID blocking capabilities, too. [As to that, I have no idea if it worked or not— so far as I know my data was never hijacked, but that could be because the bad guys were blocked, or equally because there were no bad guys.]I had one real problem with this pouch. Because of its length, it showed.I am no longer stick-thin, as I when I was in my 20s and 30s. I had the neck strap just long enough that the pouch wouldn’t show at my throat when I wore an open-collared shirt, and the bottom of the pouch was against the top of my abdomen. That was enough to have the outline of the pouch clearly and obviously visible. Part of the whole reason for purchasing the pouch was to hide where my cash and passport was carried— instead, it advertised it.A shorter pouch, just the length of the passport or so, would have been much better. As it stands, I can only recommend this product to thin people. Alas, that excludes me.

Great for my Trip
Great for my trip! I recently traveled to England and Ireland and usually when I was out and about I wore this (over my clothes) with my passport, credit cards, and cash in it. It was very handy, and felt that my items were secure. If I travel again, especially internationally, I will use this again!
