Baladeo Travel Money Belt

Bought for a 4 week trip to Central America. It took a beating, good chance I'll need to replace it before my next trip.

We bought two of these. One for myself and one for my husband to wear. We have enjoyed them so far. You hardly know they are on. And they don't pull on your back or make you look like you gained weight while on the trip. Would recommend them to any traveler.

good buy; excellent construction & utility

This is an excellent product. Be sure to measure your waist before buying as it is not for the heavy-set.

Good for securing valuables.

it feels very warm and bulky wearing it on your hips and i only tried an empty one.

This model has the anchor points for the belt piece in the middle of the pouch. As a result, the top portion folds down annoyingly, and the pouch doesn't sit very well on the waist. It also lacks a pocked designed for a passport, which seems a major oversight for something like this. That said, it has plenty of slots for credit cards, and an easily accessed outer zip pocket for cash that you might need on short notice. The design, except for the belt attachments, is acceptable, but there are better pouches than this for comparable prices. This isn't really a travel item you want to skimp on. I will be replacing this.

I was skeptical about wearing something under my clothing, but didn't want to have to worry about pick pockets. This is much more comfortable than I anticipated. The band is elastic and it is backed with a soft brushed fabric that is non chaffing. There are more pockets than I will use, some closing and some "slots" like for credit cards. This would be useful if you wanted to keep a lot of things separate, but could get bulky if they were all stuffed full. Well worth the investment to feel secure while traveling.

I love the material, light and handy.
