Interesting. When I met with Tom Mahon, he suggested adding slanted pockets to add some interest to a solid gray suit. This was not what I had originally had in mind, but I had just seen "The Man With the Golden Gun" the night before, and I had notice some great suits Roger Moore had with slanted pockets in that movie. I also suppose the fact that I'm on the younger side of the spectrum had something to do with Tom's suggestion.Originally Posted by Master Shake
Well Mr. Mahon is authentically English. Slanted pockets are quite acceptable in England. Many may not wear them but they are positively received. Huntsman, Dege and the many hacking and military style tailoring firms have entrenched the slanted pocket in the English style. Now, ticket pockets are not well liked, that's more for the tourists.
