NTravel Money Belt Basics

There are two most popular types of travel money belts:

1. Fanny Pack-Type Money Belts

These money belts are somewhat similar to fanny packs but flatter and worn under the clothing. They won’t be seen to others unless you wear tight fitting clothes. Most of the popular travel money belts now have 2 zippered external compartments and open internal pockets for organization.

The majority of travel money belts are unisex and have adjustable elastic waistband so they can fit both men and women. However, some manufacturers offer money belts in different sizes – in regular size that fits most, also in XL and XS.

Most of the best money belts are made of durable rip-stop nylon and are lined with RFID blocking material. The latter will protect your personal data stored on microchips in your passport, ID cards and credit cards from unwanted scanning.

2. Travel Security Money Belts With Hidden Money Pocket

They look like regular belts. But actually they aren’t.

They have a long zippered hidden pocket on the inside which can hold folded bills and folded travel documents or copies of travel documents. Some of them have plastic buckles which will allow you to go through airport security without taking off the belt.

Some of the belts are for men only, but there are unisex money belts, too. Majority of the security travel money belts have a very simple design. But that’s the purpose of these belts – not to draw attention and keep your money safe.

Finding the Best Money Belt for Yourself

It’s not a hard task since they are very similar to each other. When buying or ordering one online check:

the dimensions and compartments of the money belt. If you are planning on carrying a large smartphone in the money belt find out if any of the compartments will accommodate a large smartphone. Majority of best travel money belts can hold an iPhone 8 Plus in one of the compartments.
if the money belt is available in several sizes. If not pay attention to the length of the waistband, if it’s not way too long or too short.
if it has moisture wicking lining at the back. Most of the best travel money belts have moisture wicking backing. It will draw moisture from your body and won’t feel too hot on your skin even if worn under clothing.
if it features RFID protection. This feature will protect from unwanted scanning of your passport, ID cards and credit cards.
if the material is water-resistant. If you are traveling to a place where is hot and humid you’ll still be sweaty no matter what – moisture wicking lining or no moisture wicking lining. Water-resistant material will protect your documents and money from moisture on your skin or light rain.

If you are looking for a simple solution that will help to keep your cash away from pickpockets, get yourself a travel security belt with hidden money pocket.

When buying such a belt check how long is it. And if it’s available in your size. Some of these belts have a plastic buckle. That means it will allow you to go through airport security without taking off the belt, which is very, very cool. Especially if you travel by plane a lot.
