Adidas athletic shorts pockets

Found a style of Adidas shorts I love. Fit great, last forever. Bought a few more pairs only to find out they got rid of about 2/3rds of the pocket material.

Any time I sit down, whatever is in my pockets falls out. Can’t even get a pocket clip knife in completely because the pockets “bottom out”.

I’ll gladly pay the extra $1 for extra material. Fuck.

Perhaps this is what caused fanny packs to be created.

I survive in the winter months because I typically wear a hoodie with a front pocket.

I can’t pull off a fanny pack though. Makes my ass look YUUUuuuuuggggge.

While they paid some third world kid 3¢ to make them.

I empathize. This is how pockets are in all women's clothing, and then y'all menfolk make fun of our purses.

Knives are meant to be clipped to the waistband of shorts

That is the way of life now. A company has a very good product. However, it will be ruined by an “improvement” or “upgrade”. Ugh!

I hate this. I had a great pair of adidas shorts, good deep pockets. Ordered 3more pairs about 6 months later, all shit pockets. Now my phone goes between my seat and center console about 2 times a week. total Pain in the ass

Check Amazon. There are a bunch of thingys that fill the gap between the seat and center console, and have coin trays, etc.

Shallow pockets are a pain in the ass, though. My rain jacket is guilty of that. I have to remember to take my phone out of the pocket before settling in to the car.
