HoboTraveler.com 10 Large Secret Pockets Velcro For Money, Alternative To Money Belts, Ready To Sew In Pants

I used these while traveling to Paris last week and felt confident that no pickpocket was going to get anything from my secret pocket. I kept a small envelope with cash, my passport, and a small inexpensive slim card case with my license, medical cards, and three credit/debit cards in it. Once I put the stuff in it could not be seen, and it is so comfortable that I forget it is there. I also carried a cheap day wallet in my regular pants pocket with about €50 so I had access to enough money for the day without worrying about being wiped out if someone stole it. I found and ordered these here three days before leaving on my trip, and they arrived the day before my trip. There were 11 secret pockets in the pack. They are excellent quality, and easy to sew in with a sewing machine. I highly recommend them!

Great quality and good idea. I like them and will appreciate having them on an upcoming trip.I would like to suggest another option be available.... I chose the velcro pockets over the zipper option as I figured the zipper pull might be bothersome inside my waistband. I found though that the velcro makes a bit of noise when you move around and where the velcro closure is things are a bit thick there. I would like to see an option available with NO closure. These are inside the waistband of your pants, things aren't really going to fall out of these pockets. I think they would be more comfortable, quieter, and easier to get things out when you want them. They would also be a bit cheaper to make that way.

Too big. Wish there was a variety of sizes.

Very large so will fit large square items or medium rectangular items, but material is a bit stiff. Would be nice with a bit of a material upgrade so that it works under softer fabric items upon installing.

I was surprised to receive my secret pockets because I place my order 2 days ago so im very pleased with the fast delivery! having seen the pockets they are in good condition and seem to be made very well, so to me the quality looks well done! I believe these secret pockets will do what needs to be do, keep my valuable's safe and out of site!

What an amazing idea! I used the YouTube clip and fitted them, they work brilliantly. We carry just the money for the day in a purse/wallet and if that gets pinched not the end of the world as the rest of the money and passports are safely snuggled into the trousers. Adjust them and they are comfortable. Ten out of ten.

The Velcro is very strong! The width is great. However, I think a superior design for use in blue jeans where you are *concealing a passport* would be one where the top material is longer by about 3 inches. When I put my passport in it and sat down, the passport would bend and get distorted. ** Other than that, these pockets are super.** When sewing these into my jeans, I used an extra big stitch and sewed it four times, each (thread) line offset from the next. This made removal with a razor after the trip easy. I did make the error of double sewing the end points of the each line - which made **starting** the stitch removal difficult. Oh, I also purchased the ones with the zippers. Those were more comfortable since the zipper is much more flexible than the Velcro. Consider getting the zipper kind too and sew in each and see if there is a comfort difference. One nice thing about the Velcro is that you can force your hand in to the pocket without having to find the zipper latch. (Ha! Just thinkin'. . . . Everyone in our party had these sewn into their pants and when we went to the foreign bank to exchange money. . . (chuckle). . . we turned toward the wall and put our hands down the front of our pants!Would have looked like some weirdos to someone who didn't know what we were probably up to!Consider moving your money to your pocket before you get to the bank.)

I sewed these into our pants prior to a trip to Europe, and they did come in handy for longer-term storage of passports, extra cash, etc. while we were out and about. Although they are large, you don't notice them and they don't make your pants look bulky even when carrying things.The Velcro on these is insanely grippy and difficult to open. While that can be a good thing, pickpocket-wise, it was almost impossible to retrieve anything (who knew my passport cover would set off a metal detector at the Louvre?). I plan to remove the Velcro strips and replace them with snaps -- if I had it to do over, I'd order the ones with zippers. That said, these are a great idea and I'm glad we have them.
