I have an international trip coming up to Italy, and am looking for something to use for carrying my cameras and whatnot while walking the streets sightseeing. My main concern is snatch and runs though, and I'll have a few thousand worth of cameras and whatnot with me. I want to be a tourist without really looking like a dumbass tourist who can be victimized by the Gypsies. So my thought is one of the shoulder type sling bags that are designed to be slung cross body, but I'm coming up short with finding a good one. I'd go with a regular backpack, but I want to be able to bring it around front to access it.
Most of what I'm finding is either "tacti-tard" or flimsy. I don't want plastic connector clips, those would snap right off if snatched, so direct sewn with an adjustment buckle is a must. I don't want anything Molle looped up, multicam, etc. either. Needs to fit a DSLR type camera (Sony RX10) and a point and shoot, couple bottles of water, probably a couple items of my girlfriend's so she doesn't have to have a purse. I'm not carrying a tripod or anything crazy large, just more than I want slung around my neck and in pockets. Otherwise, I'm driving everywhere and only need an afternoon's worth of essentials while walking the streets and visiting museums.
Not looking to spend a lot on this, definitely under $100 if possible. Anything water resistant, civilian type colors, and compartmentalized inside would be a plus, but I'll sacrifice as necessary.
Any recommendations are appreciated, discounted recommendations even better.
