Dear Clothing Arts,

Your pants do stop theft. They stopped robbers from accessing my wallet in the Paris subway.

My incident occurred just as I got on the subway train. I was overwhelmed by a group of young pick-pockets all female. They had their hands all over me but could not unzip my pockets. There were about 5 of them.

They got off at the next station and there was a woman next to me who had her money stolen from her money belt. So the pants are really excellent in stopping pick-pockets.

Editor's Note: This is your 33rd stopped pick-pocket in Paris!

Dear Clothing Arts,

While touring Paris a few years ago, we went to visit a famous market in the south of the city, Marché aux Puces de Vanves.

As we were walking through, there was a very tight, crowded area, and shortly thereafter I noticed that my back button was undone. Of course, they didn't get past the other button, zipper, or any further than that.

Now I'm back getting some new pants as they have "unfortunately" shrunk in the closet over the last years ago!

Dear Clothing Arts,

My husband and I had just boarded the RER at Gare du Nord in Paris, returning from a week in Lille. The train was crowded and as we boarded, a man reached to help my husband with his suitcase. Husband shook his head “no”, and at the same time felt a hand on his back pocket. Classic distraction pick.

Both men jumped off just as the doors closed and went in search of an easier victim.

My husband always thinks he is too aware to be caught by a pickpocket, and wears these pants to spare himself my nagging (he carries most of our cash). I think this made him a believer.

Dear Clothing Arts,

I just got to Paris coming from Colmar via Gare de L’Est. I transferred from the TGV to the Metro line 4 to head to St. Germaine. As I got into the metro car a large guy in front of me kept blocking me as I tried to head for a wall or other safe space with my roll-aboard suitcase. He was grabbing at my right front pocket but didn’t get anything as it was zipped closed. It was sufficiently obvious at that point what he was doing that people in the vicinity started to comment and he got off the train before the doors closed.

The pants just paid for themselves, because even though I have backups of everything, it would have caused a huge hassle to file police reports and cancel cards.  

Thanks Clothing Arts.

Editor's Note: This is your 30th known stopped pick-pocket in Paris!!!

Dear Clothing Arts,

Before my first vacation to Europe I purchased the pick proof adventure pants, my wife thought I was nuts for doing that. That was until the night of Aug 25th, 2019 around 11 pm, my wife and I got on a crowded bus in Paris from the Eiffel Tower.

A group of people got between my wife and I and I was sandwiched between a couple of guys. An attempt was made to get onto my back pocket of my pick proof adventure pants. I felt the person try to get the button undone of my back pocket, where I was keeping a wallet with nothing in it but receipts of souvenirs and food purchases the real wallet was in my front pocket behind the 3 layer protection.

When I reached back and touched the hand I asked, "WHAT ARE YOU DOING???" The lady that was trying to open the button quickly moved away with the help of her friends, and at the next stop got off. My wife was a skeptic about the pants until that happened, now she is suggesting I purchase some more.

Thanks!! These pants saved our vacation.

Dear Clothing Arts,

Received my pants (dress pants) just before my trip - Prague, no one tried to pickpocket me, Krakow, no one, Vienna, no one even tried —- 4th day in Paris I am riding the subway, one hand on a handrail, one on my wife’s hand - I feel just the slightest “tickle” and reach down and asked the 16-year-old girl next to me if she is trying to pickpocket me. Seems she was reaching through her bag and had gotten the front pocket zipper up about 1/3rd of the way - but couldn’t get anymore. She was “fighting” it when I felt her - she ran like hell when the door opened.

She wouldn’t have gotten anything anyway (cash and credit card were behind the Velcro section).

So your Pickpocket Proof Pants saved 1-Visa Card, 1-Amex Card, and 100€ (I spread cards and cash between multiple pockets just in case)

Thanks for a great product.

PS - Your pants also saved me in an unforeseen way, they are super light and comfortable even in Paris’ record-breaking heat.

Editor's Note: This is the first known stop in London and the 28th in Paris! The city of lights extends its lead over Rome to two​ ​stop​s​ as the "Unofficial" Pick-Pocket Capital of the World.

Dear Clothing Arts,

I just finished a two week trip to Madrid, Paris, and London and am thankful for the protection your clothes offer. I had an attempt in Paris and London but carry nothing in my back pockets in crowded areas.

Kept front pockets of pants and shirt zipped tight and no regrets. If I ever need to add to my travel clothing, I'll look to you first.

Thanks for the security, peace of mind, and comfortable fit.

Editors Note: This is your 27th know stopped pick-pocket in Paris!

Dear Clothing Arts,

On May 31, 2019, my Clothing Arts Pick-Pocket Proof Pants foiled an attempted pickpocket in Paris. I had just boarded the subway on my way to the Louvre Museum and standing by the door waiting for the door to close when suddenly someone next to me dropped keys and dropped to his hands and knees on the floor of the train. He started to rub my left ankle and was telling me that I dropped keys. I knew the keys were not mine as I did not have any keys on me at that time. I got a bit irritated so I hit his hands away from my ankle. At which time he and the person behind me ran off the train just before the doors closed.

I then checked my pockets and found that the button on my right pants pocket had been undone and the zipper was unzipped 1/2 way. Apparently, while I was distracted, his accomplice tried to reach into my right pants pocket to grab my cell phone. I had my cell phone in the Velcroed part of the pocket so I had one more layer of defense which he did not breach. Luckily my Pick-Pocket Proof Pants came to my defense and my cell phone was safe.

Thanks for making a great product. I will never again travel without them.
