Rick Steves silk neck wallet

Has anyone used one of these? If so, did you like it? Thanks!

My preference apart from the moneybelt is the RS hidden pocket, except rather than thread the loops over a belt I safety-pin the loops to the bottom inside of a front trouser pocket. Rather more comfortable (and less of a spectacle to access) than a money belt.

I have a silk neck wallet from another vendor, and love it. Make sure the adjustment rings are small, so they won't dig into your skin.

My issue with the waist band moneybelt is that mine only has one zipper pocket. I don't trust the pockets without a fastener.

Good luck!

That's what I use whenever we travel. It works better for me than the ones that involve a belt or your waistband. Easy for me to fish it out if needed by pulling the strap up through my neckline. I put it on before leaving the plane, because airports can be chaotic. (Just remember to take it off before you go through security if you have a connecting flight.)

DH has used the RS neck wallet for years. My neck wallet is by a different manufacturer, made of lingerie fabric, and with a length adjuster on the strap that is the same as those on bra straps. I find it easier to access than a money belt. Most especially if I'm wearing a dress!

It's the only thing my husband and I use. I love it and we both wear it to the inside of our shirt.
