Most men don't carry purses, most women do, therefore manufacturers assume a woman needs less pocket space, so they make the pockets shallower.

Because men carry much larger objects in the pockets of their pants. The pockets need to be deep and wide. In addition, pockets are essential at all times.

How do EMT pants differ from slacks?

EMT pants have a lot of pockets but it depends on the brand. One brand has pockets in the front which have an area for coins and the back pockets have wallet pockets.

Why did they put pockets on my pants?

They put pockets on your pants for you to put stuff in, even though you never will. Nothing is as useless as a baseball player's back pockets. He wears his uniform during a game and takes it off afterward. When back pockets are sewed on the back of pants and not a covering for an actual cloth pocket that goes down inside the garment, they are likewise useless and just for style. Still, like a baseball player, your pants pocket says, "These are pants and not pajama bottoms." The pockets carry a message in that is the point of having them.

When did pockets come into fashion?

Pockets didn't come into fashion. Pockets have always been on clothing. Since the years have gone by the pocket number has grown as the need to carry stuff in our pockets grew. Just like the baggy pants that people now wear have tons of pockets on them, pants from the twenties or thirties probably had that many pockets or maybe a fewer number. This is just from my point of view!!!!lol
