Pam S...I agree with EVERY word you said 100%!! They used to have nice deep pockets on women's jeans and now I just hate those short pockets they've replaced them with! The clothing companies need to catch up with we who carry I cell phones in our front pockets need to have jeans with pockets of a deeper fit!

Good ideas here. Some of my pants work and some don't so got a lanyard that attaches to the phone case so can wear my phone across my body. They are plentiful on Amazon. This might work until y'all get the pocket thing figured out.

I have found a source I like. NRA, the National Ropers Association makes my western style I love, USA made, good fabric and well made with snaps on the shirts, with pockets! Of course, not all like western cut products, but I have always loved them.

I have "added on" to front pockets on a pair of jeans I like. I don't put my phone in, but my keys. Needs to be deep enough for a small set of keys, is that asking too much? I wonder sometimes (with a lot of clothing items) do they ever make a few samples, give them to real women, and say "Here, wear these for a week and tell us what you think." Of course not.

I don’t carry my phone in front packet. I don’t need any additional bulk there!

Why women carry purses. Wish I did not need to , though.

This made me think about jeans you like. I had a pair of jeans that must have looked good on me because my oldest grown grandson told me so. -lol well I had them on the day I broke my leg. My daughter rode in the ambulance with us and was in the ER when I stopped them because they were fixing to cut my jeans off me. My daughter couldn’t believe I was upset or worrying about my jeans. She said MOM! The staff said I wouldn’t want them to have to pull them off so I relented , however grudgingly, and I probably cried about my jeans. After that found out both long bones beneath my knee was broken. I was pretty much out of it for 2 days and when I did wake up good, my daughter still was talking about how she couldn’t believe I was worrying about my jeans instead of my leg!-lol I can’t remember anything about the pockets though.

I can relate. If you have as much problem finding a pair of jeans that fit well - it is painful to lose that one pair!

I said the same thing in an emergency room. "Don't cut off my shorts. I just made them!"

I gave up finding favorite jeans. I wear gauze pants in the summer and knit pants in the winter. Both have nice pockets, feel comfortable and look nice enough for casual dress.
