Flapping the pocket

[Matt Deckard]

Pocket flaps... I like them on a suit, but they do tend to add a bit of a bulk to a look. But if I tuck the flaps in, the open maw of the pocket tends to get caught on chairs too easily. And no I will not sew them shut... I like that prince Charles, hands in pockets with thumbs out look now and again.

But flaps out when traveling on a plane... too risky with that armrest!

Putting my hands in the pockets (with thumbs out), feels natural to me. I usually do it when standing in one place for a decent amount of time, but when I sit or walk I pull the flaps back out.
