Let me help you younguns. Its a watch pocket. Back in the day when jeans were invented men had pocket watches,
You can’t possibly be old enough to remember that
No, but I’m old enough to remember my granddad called it and have the railroad watch he used to carry there. He was an engineer and the trains ran on time. Interesting how long the design lasted.
I read somewhere that Trains was the reason time ran on time.
As in, before trains “Mid-day” was a different time wherever you went, it was just the time that the church rang the bell. Sure it was around midday because the sun was up there right at the top, but it wasn’t exactly midday.
Then the trains came along and they had timetables. To start with they could leave one station a quarter past twelve and arrive at the next one at 5 to twelve, so they had to synchronise the time over the whole line, so that’s why time runs on time.
Turns out, there’s a ton of good uses for a small pocket.
No, it’s a pocket for Kevin.
Ravioli, ravioli
What’s in the pocketoli
I was always told it was for condoms but I have 4 kids so I wouldn’t know
Man your wife’s boyfriend is fertile

It’s a watch pocket; in case anybody was wondering the actual answer. Pocket… watch… watch pocket…
Slow down, I’m not following
Shove a clock in your pants!
You can shove a clock in your pants. You friend can shove a clock in their pants, but you cannot shove your clock in your friends pants.

It is literally called a “coin pocket”. smh
“The small pocket in jeans, often referred to as the “watch pocket” or “coin pocket,” was originally designed to hold pocket watches. Nowadays, it’s commonly used for carrying small items like coins, keys, or other small objects.”
Glad to see at least someone knows their historical facts. Pocket watch pocket indeed.
How many people using pocket watches have you come across this year?
Maybe we should bring that back! I never liked wrist watches.
My phone stays in my pocket and has a clock so, I mean… kinda?
I really like pocket watches and have tried them out. Skeleton pocket watches are beautiful but kind of hard to read. Main issue is that they are usually mechanically spring powered which requires proper winding technique and doing it frequently.

I love his stuff, but I also get that it’s not for everyone.
Why not? Everyone likes ravioli.
Not me. I don’t like ravioli.

Be damned lol. Thanks.
Oh whoops, I thought this was a parent comment and was replying from my inbox. Haha, I wasn’t trying to troll.
All good, in fairness that was specifically stated earlier, I just don’t think to take it literally. I appreciate the answer either way.
In literally every pair of pants I have, I use that to store a hair elastic or two. Then whenever I need my hair up (eg, eating and hair would get in the way), I have one easily on hand.
In Germany we need coins to unlock supermarket carts, so I use the coin pocket for it’s intended purpose to house my one coin.
I thought it was meant to be a pocket watch pocket?
Now I store my plastic cards in there.
Pretty sure it started as a watch pocket.
It turned into a “coin” pocket when pocket watches went out of fashion and people didn’t know what else to use them for.

Filthy Frank approves Ravioli
Zippo
Watch out with that, I did it for years but eventually had to stop because I got sore skin from the gasoline in the Zippo. And I quit smoking so didn’t need it any more 🙂
Your second mistake was filling your zippo with gasoline
Well, it was Zippo lighter fluid, so I guess my second mistake was calling it “gasoline” 😉
