Dear Clothing Arts,

We've had these trousers before and they're absolutely brilliant. Definitely stopped a pick-pocket attempt in Buenos Aires a couple of years ago, too.

We were at the San Telmo markets in Buenos Aires when my partner spotted a wallet on the ground and tried to find the owner. Someone did claim it, and she did feel something tug on her pocket, but obviously, they couldn't get the zip past the extra buttoned strap. In hindsight, perhaps the wallet was placed there to distract someone, perhaps not, but whilst she WAS distracted, she's quite sure someone tried to get into her pocket and failed as the zip was open to the strap.

Thanks again,

Dear Clothing Arts,

3 times people tried to pickpocket me at the above concert on Nov. 11.

The rear button in this photo was torn off. See photos.

Nothing was stolen.

Thank you.

We Followed Up To Learn More About How It Happened:

Dear Clothing Arts,

Once, a boy on my left tried to go into the front left triple lock pocket and failed.

This is a floor seat without US lawyers, so you are touching skin on all 4 sides of you in Buenos Aires.

After 2 girl attempts from behind where nothing was in the pocket, I pretended to be hot and fainting as many people were (but I am 6 foot 3, shorter people had no air to breathe) and intentionally got myself pulled out of the concert floor area by concert security.

Only today did I notice that this pocket I rarely use as it is a rear pocket had the button missing.

So yes, I was aware of all 3 attempts as they occurred, and after 3 failed attempts, I left that very crowded area, only 5 people deep from the dead zone front barrier with security, after which just 8 feet away was Taylor Swift.

Enjoy the story.
