Pork chop pockets are rectangular with a diagonal opening, deep and easily accessible. They are usually front pockets in casual garments and are common in boys’ play clothes and adult jeans and shorts for a casual appeal. They are also found in cargo pants and outdoor wear.

Pork chop pockets are pockets on clothing and are named after their pork chop shape. Instead of being a square shape like most other pockets, they are rectangular with a diagonal opening, rather than a straight one. This opening allows them to be deep but also easily accessible. They are usually front pockets in casual garments.

This type of pocket is different from other types. The square-shaped patch pocket is probably the most common pocket version and is often used for back pockets. Slash pockets may have a diagonal opening like pork chop pockets, but they are not as rectangular or as wide. Button-flap pockets are basically patch pockets with an added button-flap feature. Pork chop pockets do not have buttons and the part that is the rounded corner is the deepest part of the pocket.

Boys’ play clothes often have pork chop pockets. These pockets are easy for kids’ hands to get into and are big enough to hold all sorts of things kids might put in their pockets. Plus, the interesting shape looks cute on everything from jeans to shorts.

Adult jeans and shorts for both women and men often also have pork chop pockets for a casual appeal. Dressier capri shorts for women, such as those suitable for wearing to an office job, generally do not have this style, as these pockets are considered too casual for running. Jeans and casual pants with such pockets are likely to have flared legs to balance out the look.

Cargo pants often have pork chop pockets near the waist, as well as rectangular pockets with flaps on the legs. Other casual clothing made for outdoor wear, such as hooded jackets and shorts, can also feature this style of pockets. This type of garment, with its ample storage possibilities, is practical and comfortable for outdoor activities such as camping. Pockets can also be found on some casual skirts, as well as knit pants or shorts with an elasticated or drawstring waist.
