Bibb overalls.... Plenty of room for your iPhone and your G19.

Lots of pants have deep pockets. Just not the tight jeans hipsters like to wear.

How pants pockets - period!

Women's pants today (except jeans) don't include pockets, unless you're thinking of those stupid painter's pants with pockets below the knees!

I keep my clothes for a long time. I have some still serviceable trousers that are 15 years old, and an odd thing is happening.
The front pockets have slowly shrunk to about 3/4 size.

The snarky claim is that cargo pants are popular only with out of date old codgers.
Perhaps that's true, but those are the only trousers now available with decent pockets!

So this is a trendy news item?
The idiocracy most certainly is here.

My experience has been that the size of ones phone is inversely proportional to ones IQ.

The Idiocracy is here.

She said....”Are you happy to see me or is that just your phone in your pocket?”

Good, those pockets make for great places to put extra mags and pocket pistols in.

Exactly. Will be able to go from a snubbie to a 3-4” barrel.

Thumbs up to overalls. Been an almost daily part of my wardrobe for, oh, 40 years or so. Separate from the endorsement of overalls as highly utilitarian garb, Carhartt jeans have deep front pockets.

Well don’t plan on asking a woman to carry your phone in her pocket for you!

Agreed. Deeper pockets for larger hand guns like GLOCK 19 or 26.

I have no cellphone, have no urge to ever have one, but pockets cannot be too big or too numerous.

My suggestion would be a double pocket, one with
an interior pocket just for the phone. I end up carrying
lots of stuff, keys, etc and the screen does get
scratches also lint and dirt in the ports.
I always carry mine with the screen against my leg
but sometimes stuff gets against the face anyway.

That’s why cargo pants and cargo shorts are going to stick around long after their sell-by date. Plenty of room for the growing amount of stuff guys haul around and we wouldn’t be caught dead carrying a “man-purse.”

As for the so-called “skinny jeans,” while I’m glad to see something other than sagging oversized jeans being worn, men wearing “skinny jeans” won’t have a problem carrying a “man-purse” from what I’ve seen.
