There is a crisis happening in the world. What denim do you wear to carry your phone. You could give up on denim and go with cargo pants 24/7 — for all the roomy, low-hung pockets your legs can handle. Heck cargo pants can even hold iPads. But but there’s an alternative: The First Edition Jeans by I/O Pocket, the 100-percent-cotton men’s jeans with a dedicated smartphone compartment.
The challenge with designing clothing that stashes gadgets is always the bulk or fit, particularly when it comes to large-screen phones. But I/O Denim manages to keep the tailoring slim by putting the smartphone pocket in the side seam. The placement is smart. It’s further away from your butt, so it won’t take the brunt of your weight if you sit on it. And unlike the front pocket, it’s relaxed, which means you won’t have to dig like crazy. The space can fit smartphones with screens measuring up to 4.8-inches. So Note 2 owners are out of luck.
