Product Review of P^cubed Pick-Pocket Proof Pants (say that 10 times fast!)
A few weeks ago, after writing about the time we nearly got pick-pocketed in Egypt, we were contacted by the people at Clothing Arts with a request to test out its Pick-Pocket Proof Pants.
Pick-pocket proof pants? We were intrigued.
When traveling in a foreign country, there is nothing more frustrating than getting pick-pocketed and loosing valuable items like your visa card, bank card or passport.
After getting robbed by a prostitute in Bangkok, we know firsthand how annoying it can be to notify your banks that your cards have been compromised. It’s not a fun experience.
We tested out the Adventure Traveler Pants during our recent trip to Whistler for the Christmas holidays.
At first, I was unsure about whether or not I would actually wear the pants in normal situations. If the pants aren’t comfortable and stylish then it’s unlikely that I’ll wear them again, regardless of how protective they are from pick pockets.
I was pleasantly surprised. The pants are not only comfortable, I like the look of them and will definitely wear them on our next trip overseas or when go hiking and camping in British Columbia next summer.
Here are some of the pant’s features:
- All zippers are covered with button flaps, making it virtually impossible for curious hands to get inside
- Pockets are cut resistant with double thick fabric and tight thread (also great for hiking and camping when walking past sharp tree branches or thorny bushes)
- Expandable cargo pockets, ideal for fitting small guidebooks and maps
- Triple secured hidden passport/money pocket
- Dual front smartphone pockets that is designed for both lefties and righties
- Wrinkle, rain and stain resistant fabric, so important when traveling because you don’t want to carry too many pants in your backpack

Yeah they don’t look too bad, and for me that’s really saying something. I wouldn’t normally even comment on clothing. You should try take your wallet out of your pocket and then replace it again while you say “Product Review of P^cubed Pick-Pocket Proof Pants” – and if you manage 10x in a row, fast, then they must be a winner.
Awesome review and they really are some good looking pants! Think I may have to pick up a pair in the not too distant future.
I like the fact that there’s a protected pocket specifically for a smartphone. Usually there’s not really a safe or practical place to carry one in most pants. Do they have women’s styles as well?
Nice! These pants look sharp and they sound like they’d actually deter pick pockets. Good find!
Nice pants! With that, we be able to avoid pick pockets as the pants look is very secured. I don’t want to encounter that.
wow good looking guy with many pockets 😀 just don’t forget where you put your money 😀
nice photos 😀
I notice that too Moe! Lol! Perhaps he has many secrets pockets with money in it.
These pickpocket proof pants are a great idea. Just be aware that you should still have a travel insurance policy and minimize your valuable items when you travel.
Can I buy these in a store or do I have to order them online?
I would love to get the pick pocket proof travel pants without the cargo pockets.
