I hate this pocket. My phone keeps getting caught on it when putting it in my normal pocket.

even if it is, maybe it's time to get a new pair of pants
Apparently, the little pocket is a design feature to stop jeans from falling apart, reinforced the hip area.
This is what they want you to believe.

I said it twice, accidentally
Wouldn't reinforcing one side put increased stress on the other side?

find them useful for holding my ring/wedding band, which would fall out of a larger pocket. surprised this hasn't been mentioned before.

Good point. Perhaps, reinforcing one side is built in obsolescence?

eheh great thread. I don't think it would be comfortable to carry several coins in that pocket (and coins are a thing of the past anyway, especially in a post covid era).Same for a watch (and many people don't use wristwatches anymore, let alone old watches).I say it's a mistake of evolution. like the appendix.

The small riveted watch pocket was first added by Levi Strauss to their jeans in the late 1870s.[19]

"The watch pocket was an original element of our blue jeans, like the rivets on our pockets, button fly, arched back pocket stitching and leather patch," Panek said. "To preserve the integrity of the early design, Levi Strauss & Co. maintains the watch pocket."
