Seriously, why are they so small? It’s like they’re inviting my cellphone to fall out.

    This is why more and more people I know are moving to mens working pants. I can fit my cellphone, sunglasses, earphones, wallet, keys, water bottle, a notepad, pen, pencil, sharpie and meal replacement shake in my pockets (I dont like carrying anything in my hand when walking to work)

      My favorite hoodie has a bunch of features like this. Zipper is a bottle opener, it has various specialized pockets hidden throughout, the front chest pocket is designed to be a coozie/can holder, pretty sure you can run headphones through it somehow, it folds into a pillow, it’s lined with reflective material in the seams, etc. It is/was amazing, but it ripped in a way I haven’t been able to keep repaired after years of wear. :(

      I pretty much exclusively wear work pants and they’re alright when you’re standing up but the second you sit down your phone jabs straight into you, sure I could put it in the thigh pocket but then the weight feels weird around my knee

        yeah, when i’m working I end up leaving everything but my watch in my lunch pail. Half because it can be uncomfortable squatting with it and half I dont want them broken/flung or what not out.

        I lept my wallet once while working…never agian. A Kid kept tapping my wallet in my pocket, repeating “Whats in your pants teacher” over and over. I was busy with other children and so had to live with that for like 30 srconds.

      So I recently bought a couple pairs of pants from Duluth trading company, and I’ve gotta say, I’m loving the enormous array of pockets they have. Yesterday I discovered that the pants have an inside pocket with a zipper. I literally hadn’t noticed that before.

      I mean, I’m not really sure how I’d use that inside pocket. I’d have to literally unzip the fly to access it… But it’s there.
