Abstract

A garment that is configured to protect against theft or otherwise unauthorized access of pocket items. The garment contains a pocket zipper connecting assembly system that is accessible from one or more garment surfaces, having pockets that feature zippers, each with an engagement device. The engagement device connects the zipper to another aspect of the garment, including a securing structure, or to the engagement device on another zipper. The latter case may comprise two pockets featuring zipper closures with the zippers in closed position when zipped towards each other, and each zipper engagement device featuring a complementing interface that connects the zippers together. The mutually conjoined zippers are secure against unintended opening.
