LOCTOTE enables you to Live More and Worry Less
Our story is simple. My stuff got stolen while traveling, so I wanted a theft-proof travel bag. No good ones existed, so I invented one and launched it on Kickstarter. It went viral. I got cancer. We got a deal on ABC’s Shark Tank. I beat cancer. Our bags became the gold standard in anti-theft travel bags. Bad people knocked us off, cut corners, and produced inferior junk. They failed. We
grew because we never skimp on anything. Our bags may be overkill, but when you’re alone in the world, failure is not an option. LOCTOTE enables you to live more and worry less.
Don Halpern – Founder & CEO –
Loctote Industrial Bag Co - Locks Shut- prevents items from being stolen from the bag (solid brass lock
included)
- Locks to Any Fixed Object- prevents the bag from being stolen (steel-reinforced lock strap)
- Slash Resistant Fabric- prevents slash-and-grab theft (Along with Honeywell and Tuff-N-Lite, we developed a textile that is literally off the charts for every cut-resistance measure – exceeds ANSI
A9)
- Slash Resistant Ropes- prevents cut-and-run theft (ultra high molecular weight polyethylene core)
- Shields Against RFID Scanning- prevents unauthorized card scanning (certified RFID-blocking interior pocket lining)
