Tell me about your pockets

I think that well equipped pockets are fundamentally badass. What do you always carry in your pockets? Do you designate pockets for certain items?

I don't care if you carry a purse. What goes in your pockets?



My pockets are always, always like this. It's almost like an OCD thing.

Right Front: Keys, Pens, Loose Change... essentially my junk pocket.
Right Front Change Pocket: Cellphone(I keep it separate so the touch screen doesn't get scratched)
Left Front: Zune
Right Back: Wallet
Left Back: Knife

The front pockets also have these sort of "caves" in them, they connect the pockets all the way up to the zipper, I slide shit like my pipe or weed in there.


Also this question stems from a conversation I had relating to this question.
Do you carry a knife?
When?
Why?

I LOVE POCKETS.

I refuse to wear pants with less than two pockets, I always need to be able to carry something.

I only ever use my back pockets for money, easier to pickpocket.
I carry my wallet in my front right pocket, if im not wearing my jacket, I put my MP3 player there as well.
My jacket has pockets as well, which are always nice. Sometimes a comb or glasses in my jacket, no real order for that.

Also, I never carry a knife, unless im camping, then its just incase i need to cut something.

Your pockets are nearly the same as mine.

Right Front: Keys, Change, Pens or any other trinkets. Also mostly "junk."
Right Front Change: Cellphone. Fits nice and snug
Left Front: Usually empty, sometimes houses my iPod. Pocket knife, watch occasionally. Usually has more valuable stuff.
Right Back: Wallet, Gum. Name tag for work makes its way in there to.
Left Back: Schedual for movie start times at work, or anything on paper mostly.

As for why I carry my knife, no real reason. I just like my knife. It's a useful tool.

Left front-ID, Right front-Keys.

No knife, but I do have mace. Honestly, I think I'd prefer a knife. :/

right front: pens and/or phone
left front: wallet, keys, and now i bring a paper clip and this other thing, so i can pick my lock on my house if i lock myself out (i do that a lot)
jacket outside right pocket: drink if i have one (not talking about alcohol by the way)
jacket inside pocket: notes, memos etc.

i dont carry a knife, reason is because if i get caught i get fined £5000.

Dice, torch, music.

POCKETS!! PANTS with lots of pockets!! Cute girlie SHIRTS with hoods and little pockets in the front!!!

Pockets. :smitten:

Wow, I hate full pockets.

Left: flat card-wallet with cards, IDs and bills
Right: 3 Keys

Ooh, a topic I can sink my teeth into. I too like equipped pockets. I usually wear BDU pants around home or in the woods. So most of the time. :D

Right Front: Pocketknife (Benchmade Vex), card wallet with ID, debit card, library card, etc. with Zebra telescoping pen clipped on, loose cash, loose change, 512mb flash drive.
Left Front: Nitecore D10 flashlight (130 lumens on one AA), Mini-Bic lighter. If I'm wearing jeans my SAK (Swiss Army Knife) goes in this pocket too.
Right Back: Usually nothing, sometimes my AG Russell Woodswalker (pocket fixed blade, tiny but it's like a scalpel) or Spyderco Native (another pocketknife :P).
Left Back: Nothing.
Right Cargo: Dog leash, several hanks of 550 paracord, various odds and ends depending on the day, ranging from a granola bar to another pocketknife (yes, I like knives).
Left Cargo: SAK, bandanna, lip balm.

You should see the contents of my jacket pockets...

I also usually have a fixed blade knife on my belt (lately a Frost's 740 Mora clipped to a carabiner on my belt) and my keys and Leatherman Micra on a carabiner clipped to a belt loop.

Edit: Yes, I carry a knife (knives, plural, almost always). I carry a knife because it is a valuable tool that no one should ever be without.

Myself and friends have been jumped/robbed/rolled on multiple occasions(especially when we were slinging dope).

My buddy PJ was stabbed in the ribs with two screwdrivers, one of which punctured his left lung. We called an ambulance but a half hour later it still wasn't there and we had to haul him to the nearest hospital.

Since then I've carried a knife with me everywhere I go. I've stopped selling, but I keep carrying it out of habit or something.

I've never had to use it, and hope I don't have to. But on more than one occasion I've flashed it and they bounced.

But yeah, it is useful as hell as a tool. I don't go a day without using it at least once.

front pockets: lighter, celly phone, bowl, medicine bottle for what ever drugs i might have [usually a select few pills or pot. tip* any container that lets your pot breathe keeps it fresher than a plastic baggie] assorted tobacco products excluding rolling tobacco.

right back pocket: wallet and tin foil for make shift bongs/pipes
left back pocket: rolling tobacco and papers

jacket pocket: coins and/or everything in my front pockets if i am wearing a jacket. easier access and i reach into my pockets for any number of things quite frequently.

Pockets are the shit. This what I have going on with my pants.

Front right pocket: Keys
Front right minipocket: Lighter, Zigzags, Visine, a sheet of paper for rolling on.
Hanging from the hoop just next to the opening of my front right pocket: A pen with a clip.
Front left pocket: A little address book, a notebook and occasionally a folded up large brown paper with some diagram I'm working on. (It's a paper bag which I can get from a cafeteria and open up when I want a bigger, easy to get medium.)
Back right pocket: Wallet, loose money, reciepts, other pieces of paper.
Back left pocket: I leave it open for when I may need an extra pocket. Regularly occupied by weed.

Front Right - Phone and money.
Front Left - Change.

Front right jeans pocket: Cell phone, maybe wallet, change.
Inside front left coat pocket: wallet
Right outside coat pocket: maybe wallet, maybe paperback book.
Left outside coat pocket: Maybe paperback book.
Right inside front pocket: silver crucifix, stakes, vial of holy water, torch, pitchfork, extra pitch for the torch, matches, portable windmill, portable spooky castle, a cubic foot of earth from Transylvania and the Vatican... Just kidding. Although I do have no idea how deep that pocket actually is, it may as well have all that stuff.

I never keep anything in my back pockets, and I never keep anything in my left front jean pocket.

I don't feel comfortable wearing trousers without pockets. Usually I keep one (usually the right) for spare change etc., and the left for less important things, or things I'm gonna use less. Most importantly I prefer deep or fastened pockets.

Deep pockets are a must. And the pants MUST be loose. I usually buy my pants a size bigger than I should. I hate having to force my hand in. It's what belts are for.

I buy all my clothes a size bigger anyways for comfort. If I can't do my stretches in the clothes without them feeling tight against me, I'm not interested.

Many pockets, but just one phone...where will it be. ._O

At most, usually a too heavy and too big wallet in one of the right pockets, and gum or mints, keys and phone spread amongst the left pockets.

The rest goes into my sexy side pack thingy-ma-bob.

Front left pocket: Wallet, work access badge, receipts
Front Right pocket: Cell phone, keys, change
Front right coat pocket: iPod

What a weird thread, but I feel compelled to reply :D

Left Front: iPhone
Right Front: Wallet and coins
Jacket Inside: Keys and headphones

That's all... I don't use any other pockets lol

Right: Nothing, and when somthing is in it it woud be my wallet or som useless shit.

Left: Nothing

Inside jacket pocket: Wallet

I tend to have lots of stuff in my pockets, and the content varies. I'll tell what's in them at the moment.

Upper left jacket pocket: some band-aids, card for public transport, other small things.
Upper right jacket pocket: two pens, lights for my bike, a swiss army knife, a lighter, and other things.
Lower left jacket pocket: my gloves, a lip balm, cell phone (if there are no pants in my trousers).
Lower right jacket pocket: Keys.
Inner jacket pocket: wallet.

Left trouser pocket: Cell phone.
Right trouser pocket: Keys (when not wearing jacket)

I don't usually put a bunch of stuff in my pants pockets, but I usually have a jacket or coat, so I use those pockets most of the time. I've also had too many things to through the wash, so if I do, it's something that won't be ruined. I'll put change or a small set of keys in my jeans pockets sometimes (though I also have a clip for my keys if I'm feeling so inclined and have a belt loop).

Usually the keys go in the right pocket of my coat, but I've been known to switch pockets without warning and then spend a few minutes trying to figure out where I put them. Right now there's also some receipts and a piece of candy. It's less likely to melt in a coat pocket.

I do carry a purse, though. I hate the thought of being somewhere and needing/wanting something and not having it. So, I carry around (or transfer to my backpack if I have my laptop) keys, cell phone, chapstick, eye drops, pepto bismul, gum, two small notepads, fingernail clippers (a must if bowling), candy/snacks, cleaning cloth for glasses or cell phone, sunglasses, asprin, USB drive, kleenex, credit cards, ID, gift cards, appointment slips, and a pocket knife. A purse is just a giant pocket.

Right front, Keys
Left front, Cell phone
Right rear, Moneyclip

If I'm in a busy environment, I'll move the money to my front pocket. I'm paranoid of those pickpocketing gypsies.

I've recently converted from wallet to moneyclip. It makes me feel more like Burt Reynolds.

Front pocket: bass plectrum
Right pocket: Wallet, handkerchief
Left pocket: Keys

I'm surprised no one has mentioned "harmonica" yet.

Front Left: Cell phone
Front Right: Chapstick (I lick my lips too often), loose change

Back left: Wallet
Back right: Nothing

If I'm wearing a jacket I'll keep my check book on the inside pocket.

I never thought how segregated I kept it. But it has always been this way.


I have a switchblade I bought in Turkey. I bring it sometimes when it is necessary, never had to use it though.

oh my god, why the hell did britain have to make knives illegal. i would probably carry a swiss arrmy knife if it wasnt illegal. if i was getting mugged or something, i'd probably use it as a threat, i really dont want to hurt someone, but i know i change when i get angry, so i would probably end up killing them. i would actually probably carry my BB gun everywhere if it wasnt illegal aswell, i love that thing, and im not afraid to use it.

My woods jacket pockets (it's a BDU heavy jacket, I have three I change out):

Left breast: Spent cartridges, I don't like to leave them laying around after I'm done shooting. Plus you never know when a spent shell might come in handy as a makeshift whistle.
Right breast: Fresh rounds or magazine, small odds and ends I don't want to have to dig for in the bigger side pockets.
Left main: Knit cap (toboggan, we call it down here), harmonica (there you go, Robot), various things, and my hatchet sits in this pocket most of the time, as it has a bulky clip-on blade cover and I've not had a belt sheath made for it yet.
Right main: Everything else. Gloves, dog leash, extra paracord, box of cartridges if I've got my gun with me, another knife in its sheath, a whistle on a lanyard, a paint can key, a putty knife, maybe a screwdriver. Just depends on what I'm doing at the time, and what I left in there the last time I wore the coat.

My nice work/town jacket has a ton of pockets, most inside.

Inside upper left: Creative Zen 16gb MP3 player and earbuds.
Inside lower left: My cellphone when I still used it.
Outside right: Granola bar, camera lens cap when shooting.
Outside left: Bandanna or toboggan, my hand to keep it warm.

When I wear my hoody under my jacket, my MP3 player and earbuds goes in its front pocket.


@ Slash: I know what you mean about your BB gun, those things are fun to plink with. I need to get out my BB pistol and buy some CO2 cartridges, and go set up some cans. Heh, I'm not even sure where the thing is now. I've got a little Daisy Buck too, fun for goofing around with.


I'd not advise using a knife for self-defense unless you really know what you're doing with it. My grandfather used to say, "Don't pull anything on a man you wouldn't want shoved up your ass." Basically meaning that if you don't know what you're doing, it's pretty easy to be disarmed and have your own weapon turned against you. I'd just carry a stout walking stick if you're worried about defending yourself. You can do a hell of a lot of damage with it, it has far better reach, and there's less blood. It looks a lot better to law enforcement, too, if you hurt somebody that attacked you with a walking stick instead of a knife. A walking stick is also a lot more effective again animals.

Sure, it's not as 'cool' as carrying a knife, but then that all depends on how you carry it. :wink:

One thing I've learned from living with my professional-martial-artist-girlfriend is to never carry a weapon. She and her friends just train all day on how to take peoples weapons right out of their hands and kill them with them. I don't carry a knife because I don't want to get stabbed. I don't carry a gun because I don't want to get shot. The only weapon I would ever carry would be a well trained German Shepherd.

thats a very good point, but i still like to have my bb gun in my room, ive thought out loads of situations on how to use it if someone robbed us, where to shoot the guy, when to shoot etc. (i know, im sad, i dont know why i do it, but it makes me feel safer and more prepared)

and to be honest, i probably wouldnt actually carry a knife

Ray, you rock.

Also, you reminded me, I always have Zen dog treats in my coat pocket as well. :mrgreen:

Can we amend this thread for the chicks? We keep minimal amounts of things in our pockets. But our purses could compare to the crap you keep in your pockets. It would make this thread more interesting.

Just throwin' that out there.

But it would have to be limited to like, handbags, not your huge school bag or backpack or anything. Cause that would skew things. But the contents of a womans average sized handbag are comparable to the contents of a mans millions of pockets.

Okay, purses.

- Larger amounts of monies.
- Keys.
- Pens, sticky notes.
- Camera, batteries.
- Ipod touch, headphones.
- Small bottle of lotion.
- Small spray bottle.
- Id, library card, metro card.
- Hair bands, clips, pins.
- Gum & mints.
- Floss.
- Lip balm, maybe makeup depending on where I'm going.
- A mass of receipts.
- Band aids.
- Some book. [if the purse is big enough]
- Emergency tampons.

:D

:eek: wow

I'm waiting until Elis approves. It's his thread.

That's fine.

But only if you accept that purses are cheating and that pockets are far more badass than purses.

If you can't make do with what you can fit in your clothes, you have too much crap.

Not true! The majority of girls just don't use pockets the way guys do. Generally, you guys wear way baggier stuff.

I'm posting my purse contents in a sec.

YOU'RE cheating!

Somehow.

And you love me for it :P

Unless you're Indiana Jones, and have a fuggin' cool WWII gas mask bag for a satchel. That's badass enough to compete with pockets, so long as it's only used to carry ancient artifacts, a diary kept by your badass archaeologist father leading the way to the Fountain of Youth, and spare ammo for your Webley.

On my pants:

Right pocket: Phone, pencil (on school days), gum
Left pocket: Toothpick (I have braces), knife (if I go on a walk in the dark)

Yea, kind of weird.

True.

Front pouch:
- travel size dental pick/pic (?), 2 lighters, an empty vitamin case, 2 packs of gum, chequebook, cell, a fork, hand cream, 3 band-aids, pamphlets for red cross and "save Darfur" stuff, to do list

Main pouch:
- small container with yam fries, broccoli and meatless nuggets, travel coffee mug, umbrella, hand lotion, tylenol, dedorant, work swipey, wallet, sunglasses, new camera manual, hand sanitizer, comb, pencil, loose change


Back pouch:
- Vancouver vegetarian restaurant directory, tampons, acid reflux pills, ENO, gas pills, pms relief pills

I've never been a pocket person, per se. My pants are either too tight to put things in, or they're so loose that the pocketed items inertia keeps it moving forward once my corresponding leg is moving backward. It's really an utterly unpleasant experience. If need be I'll usually only have my wallet in one of my front pockets, just to hold money and other various card sized items.

Hrm...

Wallet in left pocket..
Left back pocket holds extra change.
Back right pocket holds keys, sometimes a flashlight.
Right pocket carries CRKT combination edge knife.
left pocket has another fully serrated knife clipped on.

The knives are not for fighting, by the way, I use them to cut things open..... But in the rare event that I ever do get attacked, I'm sure it would come in handy to pull out in close quarters. The extra knife is for a friend, if they forgot theirs, hahaha. Never hurts to be prepared.

My pockets are fucking legendary. Lol. I can't tell you how often people have told me "Man, you always have the most random shit in your pockets."

Kinda boring right now, though:

Left Front: Cellphone; mp3 player and USB cable; daily pack of multivitamins; multi-purpose tool/allen-wrench

Right Front: Keys; utility knife; UFC lighter

Right Back: Wallet

Left Back: Nothing (this pocket actually never gets that much attention)

I'm not wearing cargos right now, but I love them. Mine are always filled with all kinds of shit. I'm the kind of guy where somewhere can that they need two AA batteries, and I'll just pull them out of my pocket. Heh.

But, to answer the other question, I carry I knife because: A) I love knives; B) protection; C) I doubt I'm the only person that finds himself having to cut random things all the time.

my purse:

- hairbrush
- ipod
- cellular calling device
- loads of food
- gum
- mints
- wallet
- keys
- hair ties
- some make up
- tamps
- earphones
- pen?
- sometimes a drink
- lighter
- chapstick
i dunno what elsee.

sometimes i just stuff most of that into my jacket pockets depending on where im going. that is also my backpack to i guess.

I've become convinced, over the years, that there are some girls whose purses are actually gateways to other dimensions, where they can hold pretty much anything they want, no matter how big or how plenty. :chuckle:`

Or, they use the same magic as those tents in Harry Potter: The Goblet of Fire.

why do girls carry so much unneccesary crap, although rasta isnt quite as bad.

Mine and xo's weren't that bad either. :?

xox's was kind of, but yours were probably the worst.

What? It's not THAT bad.

We had necessary stuff. Always of use. :P

Yeah.

what i dont understand is how girls need all that stuff, since you say you actually use the stuff. guys are fine with a wallet and keys, and usually a phone aswell, thats all we actually need.

you just gotta have it! one time i had 2 quesadillas in there and like 3 bottles of drinks too. ahah. remember. this is also my backpack to...so i need like a calculator sometimes and sometimes an english book.

I have been looking for the perfect purse for so long!!! It drives me absolutely batshit to have to keep stuff in my pockets. It's a matter of aesthetics. Girls do not look good with bulging pockets.

Straight girls keep lots of shit in their purses because guys don't have purses. Someone in the relationship has to be organized. That and they have to reapply makeup at various points throughout the day. Well, if they want to look good, anyway.

So what's in my pockets?

Front right: Burt's Bees. Change.
Back right: student id. reciepts.
Back left: usually empty.
Front left: cell phone.

Right coat pocket: wallet.
Left coat pocket: keys. gloves.

I'll need a purse when summer rolls around because I won't have a coat for my wallet and keys. Or I could just use the girlfriend's. ;)

Sure, not all the stuff in my purse is necessary, but I like having it nonetheless. The biggest thing in mine (usually) is my notebook. I know I'm not going to remember certain things so I write them down. I do a fair amount of driving around, so I do like to have certain things just in case. It's a matter of convenience.

Oh, and purses are useful for sneaking food/drinks into a theater. Most places won't let you take stuff in, but they never really check your bags. :) You can usually get more in a purse than in pockets... usually.

hahaahaha yeah. i sneak mad food wherever i am. ive snuck 2 large pizzas in before its not that difficult.
i also like purses/bags because of the different styles. s ome are bigger and some smaller. they also vary in colors, which is nice.

I snuck a two liter bottle of Sierra Mist into the theater in my jeans pocket once.

2 litres!!! wow, in your jeans pocket!!!!

i sneek in 1 litre bottles of stuff, and some sweets in my pocket.

seriously a two litre? your jeans are way too big, Elis.

Small of your back is a great place to hide a two liter bottle. Especially if you're wearing a jacket. I've snuck a lot of stuff into theaters, from huge bags of Twizzlers to several cans of Coke, they never check anything. For all that they supposedly don't allow cameras or camcorders inside, I've walked right in with my camera bag before and nobody said a word. It's a DSLR, not a camcorder, but still...

But two large pizzas, Rasta? Not just one, but TWO?! O_o

I don't like to sneak food places. If it's theatre policy, I like to abide by it, same as I would expect of anyone else enjoying the services they provide.

Pockets are for faggots.

Get a man-bag.

The price I am paying for the film justifies the lack of purchasing refreshments. $3.50 for a small popcorn? That's half of another matinee.

I hardly ever remember to pick up snacks ahead of time, though, so it doesn't make much of a difference.

I have an apple in my purse today as well. It would weigh down the coat too much to have it in there.

I happen to like watching a film when I go to the cinema.

Not listening to an American guzzle his popcorn and dribble Coke down his front like a fucking animal grazing at the water-hole.

I always put my cell in my left pocket. i put a little money and change and chapstick in my right.i don't use my back pockets.

lol i've noticed peoples back left pockets don't get much use.

This is generally how it is...

Jacket

Left pocket: Heavy Duty “Flesh melting” defense spray. Chap stick.

Right pocket: Money, in change and any recent receipts.


Jeans

Front left: Music device, if I have one, any paper I’ve written on. Anything extra and soft here.

Front right: Money, in dollars or counted amount, plus written on paper. Anything random here.

Back left: Nothing.

Back right: Nothing.

Purse (I don't carry it all that often unless I know I'm going to be out for awhile.)

Change I’ve forgotten about or money that’s not in the right currency.

Tissues, sanitary napkins or toilet paper

Emergency tampons

Pens and pencils

Sticky Notes or any lists

Phone numbers

Cough drops

Small mirror

Library card

Book (if it fits)

Anything I think somebody might want later if on a long trip, like granola bars and water bottles that I can stuff/lay on top of it. I'll carry my entertainment if there's not enough room (sketch book, notebook, books, extra paper, game books, extra drawing utensils).

Right Front: iPod
Left Front: Change and Knife
Right Back: Wallet
Left Back: Pack of gum

Do you carry a knife? Yes
When? Only after dark and out
Why? Not exactly living in the nicest neighborhood

Well...since I'm usually at school...I have my:

Flashdrive, MP3 player, and sometimes money in my front right pocket
pencils in my front left pocket
and my wallet in my back right pocket.

Right Front: Keys
Left Front: misc. + cell
I have also lot of stuff in my jacket's pockets.Playing cards, extra shoe laces ,pens, paper, condom etc.

No.

Quote:

When?

Never unless I wanted to kill a man. Since we cannot even carry knifes anymore as tools here :/ still some decades pasts many males at least had a knife as tool back here.

Quote:

---

Why?

---

Because knife isn't self-defence weapon. It is an aggressive weapon that is made purely to kill people.

It's always the same.

Front Left: Cigarettes, Lighter, Cell Phone, Spare Change.
Front Right: Wallet, Gum.

Escalating violence.

Carry a gun. They'll be expecting a knife.

My suit jacket pockets (suit for sixth form college, because awesome) have a wallet/bus pass/back-up-wallet in the left-hand inner breast pocket and a ball-point pen in the right-hand inner breast pocket. The pen is black at present. Some weeks it is blue.

When I bother taking it I put my Zen in with the pen. Sometimes this alternates with a phone (usually in bag).

Trouser pockets empty, save for a neatly folded hankerchief to the left (not the back pocket).

Used to carry a Bible around in my pocket. Ya.
