What can you wear in the pockets of your custom jeans?
|
The general rule for men says – never wear excessive things in
your jeans pockets. Be careful not to protrude the pocket of your
custom jeans. You can put a handkerchief in to them, or your keys,
a lighter and some small sum of money. But jeans pockets are surely not
meant for pens, sunglasses and other fragile and smudging items. A wallet
which sticks out of the back pocket of jeans indicates carelessness of its
owner and is besides a temptation for thieves.

If you happen to own pocket watch, its place is in special jeans pocket. If you don’t
have such, you can put your watch into the right pocket of your custom-tailored jeans.
As a matter of fact, the breast pocket of your shirt should generally be empty. As a
last resort, you can put a ironed and folded handkerchief in it, but nothing more!
Your private papers and documents, a wallet, glasses, a pen, a notebook, a comb, a box
for visiting cards or credit cards as well as cigarette boxes have nothing to do with jeans
pockets! You’d better put them into the pockets of your coat and jacket. Upon that, pens and
glasses can’t be put into the front breast pocket of the jacket, it is a place for e handkerchief
or some private document of your’s – an authorization document, an ID card, etc.

All other items should be placed into your purse, porte-monnaie or a brief case. Some customized
jeans models have a special pocket for a clasp-knife. This fact is explained by the past of jeans
as uniform and workers’ clothes. Today such pocket serves rather as a decorative detail, and a
clasp-knife should be better stored in a purse or a brief case.

The outer pockets of overclothes – a great-coat, a raincoat, a camisole can be used for the storage
of gloves, handkerchiefs. If necessary, you can also put there your keys, a lighter and a box of
cigarettes.
By the way, rivets on the pockets of made to measure jeans were invented by Jacob Davis in 1870. The
original idea to fix the pockets of jeans with horse harness rivets belongs to this tailor from Nevada.
It was so popular back then that all models of Levi Strauss jeans since 1873 were manufactured with
rivets on the pockets.
Did you now that back pockets of the perfect jeans should be large and cover most of the buttocks?
Because if the pockets turn out to be too small or too wide spread they will visually make your thighs
look wider. If the back pockets of jeans are placed a bit lower then usually, they visually “debulk”
your thighs. And if the length of jeans back pockets is coming down to the knee zone the proportions of
your figure would probably be destroyed. As a result your legs will visually look shorter as they really
are and your buttocks will look too low.
