Man, our ancestors were really onto something, belt pouches fucking rock
Aren't pockets just sewn in belt pouches?
I'll take a pic of a traditional New Guinean belt pouch I have ( I collect all types of Oceania stuff ) . Guys would attach these to their belts and the belts were pretty much just strings to attach useful objects to.
The modern equivalent are cargo pants where tissues can hide in the gillion and one pockets. Loved by tradies. Hated by housewives.
Easy fix there. I empty pockets before loading the machine, and everything i find in them i piff at His Lordship's head
Things fall out of pockets. Things get caught in pockets. A good pouch has not these problems
