Stop Overstuffing Your Trouser & Jacket Pockets - How To Carry Less - Men's Style Fashion Tips
About this video
Centeno addresses how to avoid overstuffing trouser and jacket pockets by carrying only essential items. He recommends conducting an inventory of pocket contents similar to military gear preparation, adjusting what you carry based on your clothing formality level, and using strategic pocket placement to minimize bulk and noise.
Key takeaways
- Centeno advises ruthlessly eliminating unnecessary items from your wallet and keychain, such as unused keys or rarely-used tools, to reduce overall pocket bulk
- Centeno argues that pocket contents should align with your clothing style—casual wear and cargo pants can accommodate more, while formal suits require minimal pocket items to avoid visible bulges
- Centeno recommends using ‘spread loading’ by designating specific pockets for specific items to prevent movement, noise, and bulging, and suggests custom trousers with change pockets for better organization
