277 Stopped Pick-Pocket: Suddenly Surrounded On The Metro In Rome!

Editor's Note: This is your 41st stop in Rome. Bill first upgraded to our Adventure Traveler Pants & Shorts in January of 2024. By June his pants had already been tested by a team of pick-pockets in Rome!

Dear Clothing Arts,

I just ordered two items, PPP travel pants and PP​P travel shorts.

We survived a pic​k-pocket attempt on the subway in Rome, Italy, while wearing the PPP Pants I purchased last January. I was so impressed that I immediately ordered another set in a different color!!

Thank you so much!!

--- We Followed Up With William To Learn More About His Experience ---

My wife and I had spent the day touring the Vatican museum. We entered the Ottaviano subway station to return to our hotel and proceeded to the correct train. As I headed towards the open subway car door, I was suddenly surrounded by four very young girls, maybe 15 or 16 years old. Two blocked my entrance to the train, and two pushed up against me from behind. It happened so fast that I didn’t really comprehend what was happening.

The train occupants started yelling, “Pick​-Pocket." My wife, who was behind me and witnessed the entire event, pushed one of the girls aside, and all four rushed away from the door before it closed. Realizing what had happened, I began checking all of my pockets. Every single one had kept the thieves' hands out.

Absolutely nothing, front or back, was touched. They didn’t even get the comb out of my back pocket. These pick Pocket Proof Pants absolutely did the job!! I immediately ordered a second pair of both the pants and shorts.

Thank you, Clothing Arts, for preventing my trip from being negatively affected!!
