Do men carry their wallet in their back right or back left pocket?

Answer 1

Right pocket It could possibly depend on whether they are right- or left-handed.While many men who are right handed carry their wallets in their back right pocket, most evidence points towards back left for right handed men. The logic seems correct that right handed should imply right side pocket, but I think it's actually the contrary. You remove the wallet with your left hand, open it, and HANDLE THE MONEY with your dominant hand rather than the wallet. Plus it always leaves your dominant hand free while you are retrieving the wallet, which is always a good thing. Lastly, take a look at any good pair of dress pants, and take a look at the pocket in the back. You will ALWAYS see one of two options:

1. A buttoned pocket on the left side only.

2. Buttoned pockets on both sides.

Each of these options is common, but you will never see a pair of slacks with a button solely on the right side. It is only logical that the button is meant to protect the man's wallet, and the fact that many pants come with just a left side button reiterates this.

In the end it is all still personal preference. I think most boys probably use whichever pocket their fathers use. But on technicality, I think it's back left pocket.

The problem isn't relevant if you wear bib overalls. The wallet goes next to the pencil pocket and is secured with an oversized safety pin,

Another consideration that comes into play for a small number of people is aches and pains. Orthopedic surgeons encourage hip surgery patients to carry a wallet in a front pocket if they must carry one at all.
