What if you’re wearing cargo pants?
What if you’re wearing a shoulder bag?
What if you’re wearing something with only two pockets?
What if you have a jacket on?

Where, oh where do your things go???

    Phone left front.

    Wallet goes in right cargo pocket or front right for jeans and slacks.

    Keys in right front by default. When going to work they go in the backpack and in winter I put them in a zipped coat pocket on the left so they don’t end up under the seat belt.

    Back pockets are usually empty because I don’t like sitting on things. Sometimes I put paper stuff back there like receipts or notes.

    Right rear, handkerchief.

    Right front, phone.

    Right front inset, wedding ring and Aldi quarter.

    Left front, keys & cards, formerly also hairties.

    Left rear, left empty and used to carry garbage until I find a trashcan.

    (If I’m wearing shorts without rear pockets, the handkerchief goes in with the phone.)

    I can’t stand anything on my pockets anymore. Everything goes to the backpack, or purse/fanny pack. I saw a guy in a rave with a chest fanny pack and I’m curious about them.

    front left is phone

    front right is keys, weapons, 2nd phone, and wallet if no back pocket’s available

    back right is wallet, important papers if they fit

    back left is extra napkins if a restaurant gives me too many, face mask if I’m not wearing, maybe some other crap depending

    that itty bitty pocket above the right pocket is mostly for found paper clips, found hair ties, loose change, lapel pins, or loose tacks that need for a different pinboard

      This was my rig until I got a cross-body bag. Now everything goes into the bag, except my phone. That way I don’t need to carry everything around while I’m at home; and I don’t need to keep loading / unloading my pockets at night or going out

      This is me during warm weather. During winter the phone and wallet go into coat pockets. Sitting down is more comfortable with empty pants pockets.

    Right pocket: Car key mini dongle. I finally found something perfect for that pocket-inside-pocket thingy jeans have.
    Left pocket: Snus

    Everything else goes in the jacket, as I I almost always wear it outside.

    I started carrying a sling bag with me everywhere now. So everything goes there except my phone which I keep in my front left pocket.

    Knife, keys, and pen go into left pocket, phone goes into right pocket, wallet goes into back right or right cargo pocket depending on what I’m wearing.

    Bags and jackets don’t change the base config, they just allow for more stuff. The exception is motorbike gear - then things move to the jacket pockets for comfort/accessibility.

    I don’t have the issue of only having two pockets because I simply don’t buy regular pants/shorts with such a poor pocket selection.

    When I’m at work in my work gear my phone goes in my right pocket on my thigh wallet in the same pocket on the left,

    Keys if I take them from the car go in the left regular pocket.

    Pen and paint markers and ruler in left breat pocket.

    In shorts phone in right wallet left keys left if I have them.

    I used to keep my phone in my right breast pocket when working but as phones got bigger I stopped being able to button it up, this led to me bending over and dropping my phones a lot.

    One time I did this twice left it on the ground the second time working in a paddock by myself,

    Proceded to get my hand stuck and unable to reach the phone to call for help and had to stand there for 20 minutes until someone found me.

    I distinctly remember a time around when smartphones were becoming commonplace, when I swapped my left and right pocket contents because I started needing to grab my phone a lot more often.

    I don’t usually take my wallet with me since most things are on my phone now, but if I need to it goes in my back right pocket unless I’m sitting down. My phone goes in my right pocket and my keys go in my left.
    If I’m wearing cargo pants I might put my wallet in a lower pocket. I should get cargo pants.
    Shoulder bag, everything goes in the bag except my phone (unless I’m doing something where I shouldn’t be looking at my phone, then it also goes in the bag.
    Two pockets, my wallet would go in my left pocket with my keys.
    Jacket doesn’t affect where things go, jacket pockets are for my hands. Although sometimes when wearing my hoodie my phone goes in the hoodie pocket.

    Phone in right front, keys in left front, wallet in back right. If there’s only two pockets, keys and wallet go together in left pocket. If I have a bag I might toss my keys in it but I probably won’t. If I’m wearing a jacket or coat then the keys and phone will probably end up in the left and right pockets, respectively, but I will still reflexively try to find them in my pants pockets and then go “oh wait, right.”
