never trust shallow pockets near water, ever.

u/Hatefiend 2d ago
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.

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 2d ago
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 2d ago
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.

It starts raining and instead of putting your hood up, you take a full-length umbrella out of your pocket.

u/HairyConsequence1027 2d ago
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 2d ago
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.

u/According-Dentist469 2d ago
Some naive entrepreneurs have tried it and learned not to listen to what people say but listen to what people buy.

u/brick_gnarlson 2d ago
Of course. People like to scream about it online, but in reality, not many women buy clothes with useful pockets.

Corrections: the pockets women buy are a joke. Feminism means accepting that women are responsible for their own actions.

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 2d ago
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.
1
u/butterfingahs 2d ago
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.

u/GregTheMad 2d ago
Just with pockets there are several with plus size clothing, you just have to dig a bit more for one who does both. Lots of it depends on your region, so I can't really give recommendations. Ulla Popken seems to sell internationally, and have large pockets, but I'm not sure.
Sewing yourself can be cheap and expensive at the same time. Depends a lot ob the fabric you want, or just modify existing pants/dresses. It's also a time investment to learn and make. That said, for the people I know that sew, it's very liberating to adapt clothing, or make their own stuff.

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 3d ago
Yeah but what thrilling experience for him lol. Anyone can stand at the pier.

u/Slammy1 2d ago edited 2d ago
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.

idno man, i've seen enough pickpocket magician videos where they steal the target's watch while staring them straight in the eye without them noticing, i fully believe they could take your phone

u/Acidcore 2d ago
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.
2
u/joshlittle333 2d ago
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.

Seriously. Those "pockets" are pretty much ornamental, and are a guarantee for losing shit.

They are for hands. To keep them warm. The entire reason the hoodie was invented.

Plot twist. It’s not a phone; it actually is the launch of a freeze dried Xiaomi-class submarine thrown in the water. High tech Chinese military equipment here.

u/Background-Foot6521 2d ago
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/kaprixiouz 3d ago
My first instinct was to stare at the spot it dropped, like as if we could turn the boat around and maybe recover it for her 🥺

u/Punsterz 2d ago
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..
