I used this belt for my 2 month long journey through India.  I kept a few $100 bills and a homemade scanned and printed color copy of my passport ID page in the zippered area.  I was able to easily put 9 bills folded in thirds and my printed passport copy in the pocket... which is about 1/4-1/3 the length of the belt.

Of all the security belts that I researched, this belt was by far the best choice for my needs.  It looks like a regular belt (unlike the waist packs / wallets) and was very, very well made.  I found it not at all uncomfortable to wear daily.

I also kept my primary stack of money, ID, credit cards and passport in my&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Eagle-Creek-Travel-Gear-Undercover-Hidden-Pocket/dp/B0054IHA4C/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Eagle Creek Travel Gear Undercover Hidden Pocket</a>&nbsp;that was looped around this belt and hanging inside my pants.  I would only access this wallet when in private.  Then in my pants pocket I would keep the money that I was planning on spending during the day.  I would not use a wallet in my pants pocket to avoid the bulge that attracts thieves.

My set up worked great for me.  My possessions felt secure the whole trip which gave me great peace of mind and allowed me to enjoy my vacation more fully.  I learned from my earlier experience in Costa Rica to never leave anything valuable in the room.  I was robbed by the hotel staff the first time I stepped out of my room to enjoy beach.  Luckily it wasn't much, but I did learn a valuable lesson when traveling abroad.  Keep what is most important always on your person.

For all future travels abroad, I'll use this same money belt and hidden pocket combination.  I also recommend all of Eagle Creek's products.  They are great quality and will last for many trips.
