261 Stopped Pick-Pocket: Less Than 3 Minutes On The Paris Metro!

Editor's Note: ​This is your 55th known stop in Paris! Paul was wearing a pair of our flagship Adventure Traveler Pants. This is your third stopped pick-pocket occuring in the lead up to the Paris Olympic games!

​Dear Clothing Arts,

I was in Paris from July 7 to 11 and had both my dress pants and cargo pants with me. I felt very secure using them, and they actually saved me from a pickpocket. I am obsessive about making sure everything is zippered and buttoned.

I was on the metro for just two stops. Two girls boarded the train, and one sat next to me. Their total time together was less than 3 minutes, but during that time, she managed to open the zipper. Thanks to the design of the cargo pants, the button strap prevented her from opening the zipper anymore.

I didn’t even notice until I got off the train and checked my pockets I found that it was partially unzipped.

Well worth the cost. Also, the dress pants, very very comfortable. My new go-to plane pants even for long haul.
