I took notice of two persons, females, one tightly clutched her oversized purse and the other with a cape draped over her shoulder hands, arms nearly concealed., then I spotted a hand, fingers quietly carefully without any motion retrieving a cell phone from the back pocket of an unaware passenger standing to my left, whose both arms were affectionately draped around the neck of the petite pretty woman tightly clutching the oversized expensive purse. I have no doubt they scouted all accessible pockets for treasure, decided that buttons and zippers offered no preview nor easy access to the contents of my pockets.Īt the Effiel Tower ground floor elevator entrance there is a sign that says " beware of pick pockets, they ride this elevator also". Spotting & Stopping Pick-Pockets in Paris I want to thank Jennifer M on their Customer Service team for her help. Ordering online is normally taking a big chance I but felt like I was dealing with a neighborhood shop I had used for years. I work for a company known world wide for great guest service but what I got from Travel Arts was over the top good. Today I received notification that the Navy pair had shipped. I received several emails confirming my travel times. Navy if they arrived, grey if the time of my travels got close. They promised that they would get me a pair by my travel date. I let Travel Arts know about my upcoming European trip and that I would be fine with Grey which they currently had in my size. I ordered a navy pair and they were delayed in shipping to the US. Ordered a new pair in February and the great customer service kicked in. Great on multiple trips to France, Italy, China and Germany but also for regular wear around home and work. If you’re looking for more tips on pickpocketing and travel safety, I compiled my best tips here.I’ve owned a pair for 7 years.
What other products do you use to keep your valuables safe? We’d love to hear! Most thieves aren’t going to grab this out of your bag or pocket, so it’s a great place to hide your ‘just in case’ money. ChapstickĪlthough not clothing, storing extra money in an empty Chapstick container can be a lifesaver if your purse or wallet is stolen. You can find both a black and brown version here. BeltĪ classic belt with a hidden zipper is a great alternative to an uncomfortable money belt or bum bag for our male travelers. A bra is one of safest places for women to store their valuables and since they take up very little room they are an excellent travel safety product to pack in your luggage. These Braza bra stashers are more feminine than the normal beige and grey versions on the market. So if you asked me, a stylish scarf that also protects your valuables is the perfect travel accessory. I came across these scarves and couldn’t help but think, why didn’t I think of that?! Scarves are one of the best packing hacks because they are lightweight and create the illusion of different outfits. He felt these products would be great to store your money and passport in if you’re sleeping in a hostel or on a train. I had my husband, Mike, try the boxer briefs and he felt the same way about the quality. You can see the zippers of the hidden pockets if you’re up close, but they aren’t overly noticeable. I tried the black tank top and was really, really impressed! The material is fantastic, the fit was great, and overall it’s probably one of the best quality tank tops I’ve ever tried on. I recently learned about this company and from the outstanding reviews online I was excited to try them out.Īnd let me tell you, the reviews weren’t lying.
Enter The Clever Travel Companion, a clothing line with hidden pockets. They tend to be unflattering, boring, and definitely not stylish. I usually find clothes designed for travel safety very disappointing. Since the Travel Hack is a blog about stylish adventure travel, we made it our mission to search for travel security products that not only protect your valuables, but are also stylish. While there are plenty of pickpocket products available on the market, they all seem to lack one thing: style. Pick pocketing is one of the oldest crimes there is and since it’s probably not going out of business any time soon, the best thing you can do is pickpocket proof yourself so you’re not an easy target. I’ve heard countless stories of stolen purses and wallets over the years and in most cases the thief was long gone by the time they realized their stuff was gone. If there is one thing that a pickpocket loves it’s tourists! When you’re unfamiliar with a place or distracted by sightseeing it’s easy to become vulnerable.
