Common concealment methods
This is the most basic method. Discreetly conceal the objects in your pockets. The bigger the pocket the better. Try not to do this with loose pockets because the items can slip away and reveal you on the spot.
Very similar to pocketing. Just push your targeted items down (or up) your sleeve. This can only be done with smaller items. Sleeving is a bit trickier than pocketing because you always have to concentrate on the items in your sleeves so you donāt turn them vertically and make them fall out. Especially be careful with glass/fragile goods!
Simply hold the object above your bag and drop it in when no one is watching. Youāll want to use a bag, a tote, or a purse beause backpacks generally cause more suspicion.
If you feel a bit nervous about just pocketing/dropping an item, put your phone in the place youāre about to conceal it in and switch them inside. Pretend you were looking at the time or texting someone.
These are a lĆfterās heaven. You can just rearrange/conceal your lifted goods here since you have absolute privacy (unless the fitting rooms are supervised or there are a lot of SAs near by which means you have to stay as quiet as possible). Sometimes the SAs will count the items you bring in (and out) but there are methods like floor concealment or double hanging to trick them. If youāre going to be removing tags do not leave them in the rooms or on the items you are going to return to the SAs! Dispose of them somewhere else in the store (preferably hide them on other items).
Take an empty soda cup (the kind you would get in a fast food restaurant), cut an x at the bottom of it and simply slide in smaller objects inside. You can also do this with a full cup if the drink wonāt damage the items. Just slip them from above and make sure you donāt cause any spillage or that you donāt drink too much (that can reveal the items).
Walking away isnāt really about concealmentā¦ quite the opposite I would say. This method advises you to simply walk out of the store with the items as if you already own them. If somebody apprehends you just say you forgot to pay or that you changed your mind and donāt want them after all (but forgot to return them). I donāt reccomend this method since it is highly unreliable and if somebody sees you walking away with an unpaĆd item once they will probably confront you the next time youāre around!
Wear stretchy or tight fitting clothes (things may get uncomfortable with these) and conceal the items between your waistband and your underwear (make sure you have a t-shirt or something else to cover them). You can also do this with fishnets or by wrapping some elastic tape around your waist, stomach, or any body part, really.
As a guy I donāt really know exactly how uncomfortable this is but my friends regularly hide stuff in their bras, even when not shĆ“plifting. Some place a whole pack of cigĆ¢rettes in there. Just be discreet while doing this inside a store.
Conceal the items inside a baby cart. People generally have more symapthy for customers with strollers or children around.
Conceal items in your long boots, long sneaker, long socks etc.
Remember to always be as non-suspicious as you can and to conceal on the move whenever possible (movement makes everything harder for the cameras)!
