Eagle Creek Travel Gear Silk Undercover Money Belt

I used this money belt when I went to London and Paris. I was advised by the locals that there would be pickpockets. I managed to not become a victim and kept my passport credit cards and cash safe. I placed it right over my ribs and it is not visible under my clothing. The silk made me sweat a little but a wet wipe and it was dry the next morning. I kept over 600 Pounds and 400 Euro along with two credit cards my drivers license and my passport in it and took out just what I planned to use each morning to place in my purse. Pounds while in London and Euros for Paris.

i bought this for a trip to peru, and for 10 days wore it almost non-stop with my passport, credit cards, and cash. what a great little item- the silk is slim, lightweight, and somehow miraculously does not sweat- even hiking in the amazon jungle in 90+ degree weather, 100% humidity. i literally forgot it was there. i even slept in it one night, because the hotel i was in didn't have a safe...

one caveat; one of the back pockets tore literally the first time i reached into it for my passport. on further inspection, it seemed like it separated from the seam because it hadn't been sewn evenly. knowing that eagle creek products are generally high quality, i figured i just got a bad one- amazon took it back (in keeping with their always-stellar customer service) and even though my trip was over, i exchanged it for another one, because it's just a really cool thing to have. ended up wearing it to an amusement park to keep my keys and cash secure on the rollercoasters... great product.

I was looking for something that wasn't too bulky and that I could easily hide under my clothes. I didn't want something that went around my neck because I wanted to wear necklaces and I thought it would be harder to hide anyway. This belt was just perfect! It lays very flat and has 2 zippered pockets, more than enough room for your passport, credit cards, and Euros or what ever currency you will be using. It is adjustable so it will fit anyone. The only thing I will say is that the color is more of a beige than rose but it doesn't show anyway so it doesn't matter.

I used the belt underneath my turtleneck shirt and had to occasionally check to make sure it was there. It was so smooth and unnoticeable! Have put it away for the next trip for sure!!

Loved using this on 18 day trip to France. Very comfortable. I would spend the extra on silk vs kakhi, as I bought one of each and the silk just feels better under clothing.

Good size and easy to wear under cloths. I've bought two of these now. I think it is worth the extra cost for the silk.

while this money belt is comfortable and well crafted, beware that under a shirt it creates a "belly bulge" that shows in pictures (and I presume to an observant criminal) - while my wife and I kept our valuables under our shirts and away from prying fingers, the vacation pictures were affected - something to consider vs. other locations to stash your cash.

I have used my money belt on two trips to Europe. It has held up great. It is soft and easy to wear. It does not bother the skin at all. I often forget I have it on. I believe it has two zippered pockets. I keep my passport in one and my money and cards in the other. I washed it in the washing machine without issue. I highly recommend this product.

So you are traveling, you've watched Rick Steve's travel details and now you too want a money belt. My husband wore this easily concealable belt under his shorts during our recent European travel and it worked well for him. Highly recommended as this could prevent pick-pocketing all of your valuable items.

The undercover money belt is a critical piece of travel gear when visiting areas with many pickpockets. This travel belt is comfortable to wear and is large enough to hold essential IDs, credit cards & money.
