Hi all.

So I'm going to India soon and need a new fleece/hoodie preferably with inside zip pockets.

I've found one or two on Amazon, specialist anti pick pocket clothing but they are way outta my budget: SCOTTeVEST hoodie £150

Has anyone got any recommendations? I don't need 21 concealed pockets (above example). Just something fairly light and with a couple of zip pockets inside for my wallets, mobile, keys etc.

Thank you!

Edit.
Damn!! Having said that, I really like the vests from SCOTTeVEST... being sleeveless would help with the heat.

Some kind of bag or pouch, on your front, while in places where it's likely to be a problem. And general tourist sense and not making yourself a target by flashing expensive stuff around.

Spent a day mooching about Chor Bazaar and managed to not lose anything, although the gangs of little rascal kids did try bless em, just kept hands in my short pockets and smiled a 'nice try but **** off' smile :)

PS you probably won't be wearing a fleece in most of India

No, I'd rather not :)
I decided to bite the bullet and get a ScotteVest vest. Overpriced at £120 but hopefully it'll last me ages.
Wish I knew about the zip pull being on the wrong side, wft is that about? There's a useful key holder with chain attached to one of the pockets, unfortunately it's the right pocket with no customisation.

All set now. Just need to choose my action camera, will go watch a few "2 weeks later and ten things they didn't tell you!!" You Tubes. :)

They do say pick pockets hang around by signs warning about pick pockets because people check where they've got their money after seeing the sign.
