I did some recycling today, tried on some jeans while at the shoppe. I didn't realize that pockets over 2-3 inches deep were an option. I love deep pockets and when I purchase jeans, hate to have to sew in new pockets. Has any one else noticed this or is it just my pet peeve?

I too hate them and don't like to put keys, etc in the back pockets when out in a crowd.

Thanks for responding, I'm with you on anything in the pockets. if you sit down you run the risk of it all falling out.

I guess I am lucky. Haven't needed new jeans for a while. I can still put my cell phone in the back pockets.

Yes you are. I'll be adding some deeper pockets in the next little while.

Yes, I have newer ones with really short pockets. I have a skirt that has fake pockets, that's even more frustrating cuz I need those pockets!

I guess it costs more to make a normal pocket. I'm with you gotta have a pocket.

oh yes fake pockets look nice but are so frustrating and irritating when you do need a pocket...

If only the manufacturers would realize real women like pockets. I envy the men and their clothing options in some respects. We genuine ladies need pockets. How about cargo-Pocketed jeans, pants, and sweats!!??

you are so right. it looks like new jeans have less deep pockets, and we do need the deep ones don't we !!

I have noticed this trend towards shallower pockets and detest the style. They are totally impractical for keeping anything safe and I simply refuse to buy this trendy stuff. That said, it doesn't appear to matter how deep my pockets are, my wife still manages to steal all my loose change (cash) on those rare occasions that I have any money to myself!!!
