A Pocket Surprise

I remember a few years back wearing a new suit for more than a year thinking that it didn't have functional pockets in the jacket! Boy, did I feel like a country bumpkin when I learned that just about all most good suits come from the manufacturer with the pockets sewn up. I took a pair of scissors that time and cut the pockets open but since then I learned that you will get better results with a small, shart retractable blade. And do less damage to the fabric.
