Now ubiquitous in many venues in UK cities and beyond, the Chelsea Clip still appears to be among the only commercially available products designed to help protect bags that can be installed in bar and restaurant environments (ie as opposed to being a personal product). The only known competition is SecureKlip. They are promoted and endorsed by Police for lack of any alternative to specify. However, known problems include very low usage by customers in bars, linked to poor product semantics; being too far out of sight and hence out-of-mind and also that the objects sometimes break and can damage bags in use.
To be loaded in due course.
