See in the video: This is what the small pocket on the jeans is really intended for.
It’s on almost every pair of jeans: a pocket on the front right. It is too small for most things. Only small change, a ticket or a condom will fit in. It is often assumed that the bag is intended for a gasoline lighter. But none of that was the original purpose of the little bag. The solution to the riddle can be found on the website of the jeans brand “Levi’s: The small jeans pocket was intended for a pocket watch. Usually you carried the watch on a chain in your vest pocket. In the 19th century, however, workers did not wear waistcoats, which is why they came up with the solution with the small pocket. The idea was so good, most jeans manufacturers sew a pocket like this on their pants. Although it is often referred to as the “fifth pocket”, the name is incorrect. Because “Levi’s” introduced the left trouser pocket as the last pocket on their jeans in 1901. Since hardly anyone wears a pocket watch these days, very few use this jeans pocket either. But maybe pocket watches will come back in fashion. And then the time comes for the small, neglected pocket on the front right of almost every pair of jeans.EndFragment
