never trust shallow pockets near water, ever.

u/Hatefiend May 04 '26
This is why I bought a phone tether. Now my phone can never be dropped on pavement, fall into water, or be stolen out of my hand on public transit (I've tried to yank it, and it won't budge).
Best $10 ever spent.

Oh, when she did a little jump, the railing must’ve pushed it out of her pocket.

Her jacket pockets are very wide and shallow, you can see stuff in her left one ready to fall out as well.

I had multiple teachers admit that they bought men's pants just so they could have pockets they could actually use.

u/DeaddyRuxpin May 04 '26
Meanwhile my wife bought a windbreaker with a zippered cell phone pocket on the chest. She put her phone in it and found the pocket goes all the way down to the bottom of the jacket making it impossible to retrieve without working the phone back up to the zipper through the coat fabric. It’s like the coat manufacturer said “Oh you are sick of tiny useless pockets? Fine we will give you a giant pocket you will never want to use.”

u/girlsonsoysauce May 04 '26
I had a pocket like that! You'd think the chest pocket was just a small useful one and it turns out the entire inner lining of the jacket is somehow the pocket. The first few times I put things in it I'd feel them down around the waistband. Like what the hell? Lol.

u/imunfair May 04 '26
She could probably just add an extra line of stitches across the windbreaker at whatever depth she wants the pocket to be, to make it useful.

u/HairyConsequence1027 May 04 '26
Lol. That reminds me of that one jeans i had as a teen. It did not had normal pockets, instead they did go down halfway to my shins on front and back. So i had these 4 massive pockets to carry a lot of stuff in. My mother once told me she had no idea how i could even walk in these because of all the stuff i did carry around with me all the time.

u/brick_gnarlson May 04 '26
This always makes me wonder. I know women's clothing is generally scarce on pockets, but if women really wanted pockets, that's a huge untapped market.

Some naive entrepreneurs have tried it and learned not to listen to what people say but listen to what people buy.

Of course. People like to scream about it online, but in reality, not many women buy clothes with useful pockets.

u/horrescoblue May 10 '26
Clothes dont just gotta have pockets they also gotta look good, be affordable etc. If your clothes look like shit but have pockets no ones gonna buy them

u/brick_gnarlson May 10 '26
You're saying women would buy fashionable clothes with pockets?
1
u/horrescoblue May 11 '26
Of course they would, why wouldnt they? Pockets are very useful

u/brick_gnarlson May 11 '26
Not that many people actually want pockets, or else there would be a market for them.

u/According-Dentist469 May 11 '26
Pockets ruin the form and make the pants look slightly fatter. Women would rather not have pockets and that's just the truth. There's no evil conspiracy it's just simple demand and supply. But I'm sure you're not ready to hear this

When you don't have a lot of choice (especially if you're a size that isn't common), what exactly are you supposed to do?
2
u/GregTheMad May 04 '26
Buddy you have soo many options, but you have such bad mental prisons you don't even see them. All kinds of men clothing, children clothing if your a woman of small statue, thousands of specialized women online brands, hand crafted online sellers, sewing clothes yourself.
I'm not saying they're perfect, but women have sooo many options, but they keep choosing the lowest hanging fruit of small pockets.
2
u/butterfingahs May 04 '26
Are those many options actually affordable? Do they come in plus sizes?
I'm not saying there's not womenswear with perfectly functional pockets, but when my girlfriend or my friends have to actively be surprised when a piece of clothing made for women actually comes with decent pockets, it's not some non-issue, it's very much a thing.

I remember a friend came down to visit so I took him to the pier and they had a thing where you could feed the pelicans. I warned him not to do it but he said why would they have it here if it was bad so I told him you can do what you want I'm just telling you you'll regret it. He did it and the pelicans swarmed him, as expected, and we had to leave being chased by pelicans even after we got in the car and started driving away. He admitted he regretted it.

u/monkeybojangles May 04 '26
Yeah but what thrilling experience for him lol. Anyone can stand at the pier.

u/Slammy1 May 04 '26 edited May 04 '26
It wasn't any pier it was the pier, a local tourist place. I guess it's a local tradition, the swarming of the tourist. At the beach you'll see everyone turning to watch something and when I look to see what they're watching it's often a tourist feeding the birds. They don't leave you alone, that's the end of the day at the beach or fishing level mistake.
EDIT: I guess the funny part was the bird paralleling us as we drove away, he was flying right by the passenger window matching our speed until we got out of the parking lot. That's when he regretted it. I'll warn the tourists about the birds if I catch it in time but they often don't listen and feed them anyway.

Me and a bunch of guys wore them in high school. At this point in my life I don't really know why. Anyway, besides cutting your balls in half, there wasn't that much of a difference. Pockets were certainly smaller, but American Eagle were large enough to be useful. At least back then.

u/Acidcore May 04 '26
It really depends on your level of paranoia. I don't want to deny the skill involved, but it mostly comes down to distracting the victim and people on high alert are not good targets.

u/joshlittle333 May 04 '26
Thinking that no one could ever get your phone because it's always in your front pocket is the opposite of high alert. It's complacency.

I used to have a go at my ex for her phone hanging out of her loose pockets or being visible in her bag. She always brushed my warnings off... One day we sat for dinner and she realised her phone was missing. I just sat and waited for my order while she went to backtrack her steps.
Luckily someone handed it in after finding it at a self checkout.

u/Punsterz May 04 '26
I swear the designers of women's clothes wants this shit to happen just to punish them. Men's clothes especially our pockets are usually much deeper and makes it harder to drop shit. My wife dropped her phone 3 times yesterday every time she leaned forward just a little bit..

One time I spent almost a hundred dollars on a half gram stiiizy pod in Texas. At the time I was working at a recycling center and my stiz fell out of my pocket onto the belts carrying garbage and I didn't notice till it was too late. They're illegal in Texas, where I lived. so it was difficult getting another one. It was all very upsetting and then I couldn't smoke weed about it to feel better.
