Something I have noticed on my journey, When I first started to loose weight I thought everyone’s front pants pockets were on the side. Then I got down to a size 36 and I realized why they called them "Front" pants pockets and not side. For Skinny people the pockets are on the front. I really did not realize this until size 36 pants. So hears to front pants pockets for everyone. I’m back to a size 36 once more so front pants pockets welcome home to stay.
I've always viewed the front pockets as the most useful. They are the deepest and the best place to put combs or keys. And I've always carried my wallet in my front pocket. I never liked the sensation of sitting on it, (and I tend to slouch when I sit anyway which would squeeze it out from the back.)
