Why do you wear jeans? Nothing fits in their pockets!

Interface · Jul 13, 2009

Okay here is the thing. I'm a bit interested in wearing jeans because they look okay to me. However there's one problem. Their pockets are too tight and inaccessible!

Any advice for a man who carries a wallet, phone, handkerchief and a keychain with him? Khakis have worked fine because their side pockets tend to be a bit bigger and are more accessible being on the side (not top like on jeans).

My question therefore is: What is your view of jeans and their pockets? Can you fit what you want in them? Or do you maybe just never put anything in their pockets at all?

Perhaps the jeans don't hang on you well and are pulling in the wrong places? I carry a cell phone front left, keys front right, wallet back right and money clip back left. Nothing is difficult to access except the front pockets sitting down. I much prefer the pockets of jeans, as my phone often falls out of the pockets typically found on other trousers.

Stop wearing women's jeans.

I manage to fit my phone, ipod and headphones in my left pocket. keys, lose change in right pocket and wallet in back right. My pockets dont bulge out, but it can be quite tricky when sitting down to get stuff out of pockets however its not impossible.

All i can say is your jeans must be TIGHT...i wear regular/boot cut and have no problems at all with pockets plenty of room for all my bits and bobs!

Personally I have no problem to fit things in my pockets, but I do not like the look of it so I keep my accessories in my jacket or in my bag.

Boot cut is for women. Just thought I'd let you know.

I put my mp3 player and wallet in my left pocket, and my cell phone and keys in my right. Do you have some massive thunder thighs or something? Go for a straight leg and not skinny jeans then.

Maybe in Seoul but here in the UK common styles for jeans for men (well where i shop anyways) is skinny, standard and boot cut!

bootcut for men is gross
i put everything in my back pockets no problem... front pockets - i'd rather not, as it throws off your clean sillouhette as well

either wear those "tagger" JNCO's or get a man purse for your shiet :: as for bootcuts, by the time they start cycling back in style, my sd-105's would be close to grail.

Woah. Sound like big pockets to me. And they still don't bulge out? What jeans on earth are you wearing?
