Ok, why the fuck are pockets sewn shut at all??? I’m a guy and I see clothes like this too. It pisses me off so much, it was so close to being useful, most of a pocket is already there, why would they just give up?

I think the real reason is so that the pockets dont get snagged or deformed while a product is being transported / stored / displayed prior to being sold.

fake pockets look nice. If you need functional ones, just pop the stitching. Usually, the stitching keeping the pocket closed is very weak compared to normal seams.

+1 for the life hack and restoring some faith in humanity.

This isn’t a life hack. Pockets are intentionally sewn shut for the manufacturing and shipping process. You are supposed to open them when you buy them.

Except they’re not fake. My girlfriend has several pairs of work pants with actual real pockets that have just the opening sewn shut so you can’t use them. Why, just why?
