What Is Your take?

Bonkers1 — Wed, 21 Jan 2026 20:37:07 GMT

On blouses/tee shirts with chest pockets. I personally would not have any use for them.

I won't buy a shirt with chest pockets. That's one area I don't need to emphasize. They're useless anyway.

Definitely do not want a pocket on a tee but they can be okay on a blouse depending on the design. I'm small-busted so that's not an issue.

@Bonkers1

Don't care if the workmanship doesn't distract.

Personally, I care a lot more about all my pants, slacks, capris, shorts, etc having good pockets.

No for me.

Don't mind one pocket on a tee or blouse. Do not care for the two pocket look, especially with flaps.

I agree and you can add fringe to my list.

@Bonkers1, hope you don't mind some suggestions.

First, I would have posted this thread in the Fashion forum. Second, I would have titled it with something to give the reader an idea of what it was about. Something like T-shirts with pockets, and save the "What is your take?" for the body of your message.

I don't like pockets on tee shirts, blouses, etc. I find them to be too masculine looking.

It's not for me. I have a large enough chest, without drawing attention to it. :-)

I like pockets on those cargo shirts, especially the ones that are a little more sheer material.

Another that does not care for pockets on my blouses or shirts. I would not buy one that has them.

It doesn't matter to me one way or the other. Small chest here, so if it does emphasize the chest, so much the better. 😉

I won't buy anything with a sewn on patch pocket...not a shirt, coat, handbag, pants (unless back pocket).

I am picky. Pockets must be sewn in a seam or on a jacket, be a besom pocket.

A chest pocket is a big no.

For men's clothing, absolutely. However, I would have no desire for pockets on my tops.

First, are you serious?? Second, stop telling a poster what and where to post!

Some nerve!👎

No chest pocket on a shirt or blouse for me.
