What makes it more puzzling is that the pocket inside the pocket is not even hidden away. It’s not a secret pocket; it’s right there in plain sight.

So what is the point of that little pocket?

Well, being a guitarist, I could say that I use it for keeping my guitar pick.

Or, carrying that small pendrive, which gets lost easily if placed inside a bag.

Some even call it the “condom pocket”.

Broke men hoard change inside it!

But did you know what it was originally meant for?

It was originally a watch pocket!

Back in the 1800s, cowboys used to wear their watches on chains and keep them inside their waistcoats. To keep them from breaking, Levi Strauss introduced a small pocket where it could be securely placed. 

But most of us use it for condoms, don’t we?
