Dear Clothing Arts,
Purchased two pair of your pants for a trip across Western Europe. I Got bumped in Paris, Biarritz, and Barcelona but never lost a thing!
The bumps were mostly from young children who were around 12 years old. The best thing was that they quickly backed off when they realized it wasn’t an easy hit.
I'm going to Iceland, Norway, Israel, Egypt, and Jordan this year. Guess what pants I will be wearing!

Dear Clothing Arts,
I just returned from Barcelona and Lisbon and wore my CA Travel pants while not in my room. Someone unsuccessfully tried to pickpocket me on the escalator at the Collblanc Metro Station in Barcelona. He was pretty good and got my rear buttons undone and partially opened the next zipper. I didn't realize it until I sat on the Metro platform a few minutes later. He didn't get my wallet!
However, on the escalator, I did feel a light "tickling" on the back of my pants, but each time I turned around, there was nobody immediately next to me. On the next day, on the same escalator, I realized that standing two steps behind someone on an escalator provided near-perfect access to the pants pocket of the person in front of you.
I have lost nearly 60 lbs recently, but I am glad to have decided to wear my loose CA travel pants with a snug belt for my trip to Europe!
I am thinking about ordering a better-fitting pair before my next trip!

Editor's Note: This is your 22nd known stopped pick-pocket in Barcelona!
Dear Clothing Arts,
Here is my true story!
I was in Barcelona Spain with my wife, daughter, son-in-law, and two granddaughters. We were boarding a subway, and there wasn't much time to get all 8 of us up the steps. This old guy was coming out with two younger fellows next to him making it difficult for us to get past. I pushed my way in, and the old man (I was in my 70s myself) pushed me back! Not my temperament to let that happen, so I was pushing past him up the steps. We all got in.
When we were in the subway and moving my son-in-law asked, “Didn’t you feel the younger fellow’s hand in your pocket?" Well with the excitement and getting pushed I didn’t feel a thing! But my wallet was inside the zippered secret pocket inside the Clothing Arts pants side pocket opening.
Nothing was lost! Buying more for a trip to Europe!

Editor's Note: This is your 5th known stopped pick-pocket in Madrid. Dave's testimonial came from a follow-up on his ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Review of the Business Travel Shirts.
Dear Clothing Arts,
I didn't mention it, but I was wearing one of your shirts in Madrid, when was pickpocketed. All they got was an envelope of sales receipts from my pants pocket- my wallet with cash and credit card and passport safely in my shirt.
Thought you might add this to your "saves" tally.
Thanks,
Dave K from San Luis Obispo, California

Editor's Note: This stopped pick-pocket testimonial came from a recent Facebook comment. Wes was wearing a pair of our Business Traveler Pants at the time he encountered the team of pick-pockets.
Editor's Note: This is your 17th known stopped pick-pocket in Barcelona. Since only one was confirmed, we will count the following testimonial as a single stop.
Dear Clothing Arts,
My husband Ivan stopped one known pick-pocket while walking in Barcelona. He had his valuables in the cell phone pocket and the thief only got through the flap and zip.
Possibly another pick-pocket was stopped on the Metro.
