It’s situation/jacket specific for me.
Sportcoats- always prefer patch pockets, since it makes the jacket a little more casual
Casual suits (linen, cotton, etc)- prefer patch for same reason as above
Work suits (solid)- prefer flap pockets
Work suits (patterned)- don't really care either way. Currently the only patterned work suit I have (PoW check) has patch.
Black tie- always jetted or none. Always.
My preference for those details on the gray flannel is because that’s kind of the “trad/ivy ideal”- a 3/2 gray flannel suit with patch pockets. The side adjusters is just personal preference (I’ve grown to love them), as is the fabric being from VBC (Fox would’ve been nice, but VBC is a better value for me)
Pretty sure I've seen you say you work a retail job and drive a Hyundai. Just wondering, why do you have a need for "work suits"?
