112th Stopped Pick-Pocket: Nothing happened in India, Anniversary in Lisbon However...
Editor's Note: This review came to us via a review for the Adventure Traveler Pants.
Title: Lisbon Portugal Save 3.6.19
Rating: ****
Author: Brian S. from South Carolina, USA
I bought my pants for India in January. Nothing happened. My wife and I came to Portugal for our anniversary. On the second night I felt a pull on the right cargo pocket while waiting to cross the street. I immediately swept my hand back and found that the rear button was undone. So was the front, but the center snap was still in place. The only thing in that pocket was my camera, which was still there. 20 seconds later, I was approached by an undercover police officer who was following three pickpockets. He asked me if I still had all my property, and I replied, "Yes, Sir, I'm wearing Pickpocket Proof Pants." Not happy that the try was made, but love the Lisbon Police and the PPPP.

68th Stopped Pick-Pocket: Map Wielding Bandit Blocked in Lisbon!
Walking up to The Santa Justa Lift in Lisbon, Portugal
Editor's Note: This is our second stop in Lisbon! Check out the first one (stop #62) here!
Dear Clothing Arts,
Four couples were in Lisbon, Portugal in October of this year. We were walking through the streets just past the city elevator, the Santa Justa Lift, when I noticed someone touching the back of my pants. I quickly turned to find a young man with a city map in his left hand opened to hide his right hand. He had tried to open my left rear pocket and steal my passport with his right hand. I smiled and moved away from him. He stopped, looked frustrated and turned 180 degrees and walked away without looking at his map.
I can understand his frustration – I find it difficult to securely zip and button my rear pocket. And that’s a good thing! When I travel I always wear Clothing Arts pick picket proof pants. Always!

62nd Stopped Pick-Pocket: Portuguese Pick-Pocket Prevented in Lisbon!
Dear Clothing Arts,
My wife and I were in the train station in Lisbon. As I rode up the escalator to the platform, I felt something brush against my leg. I immediately turned and a man was passing me on the escalator. He offered an apology and blamed his red bag for brushing up against me. I thought no more of it. A while later, we were again going up the escalator and I felt a tug on my pants leg. I turned and the same man was passing me. I told my wife loudly that he had just tried to pick my pocket. He ran away. I notice that my right cargo pocket was unbuttoned, but my passport and wallet were still zipped inside thanks to my pickpocket proof pants!
