What kind of secret pockets do you have... in your suits, shirts, pants, etc?

I remember Tim Ellis has his inner suit jacket's pocket connecting to his outside pocket!

Just a standard toppit sewn inside my sport coat. I am thinking about having it redone so it can be accessed by the side pocket. For that I will bring it to a taylor.

I met someone who was a student of the Chavez school. His pants had all kinds of pockets in the seams. There are some great 'travelers' clothes available with extra pockets that might come in handy.

Basically extra pockets in my jacket for storage purposes.
Small pockets in my sleeves to load coins quickly.
Sideways pockets at rear lower hem of jacket to store my TT's preloaded.

"small pockets in sleeves"... you mean on the inside of your cuffs, or outside on the upper arm?

I like the idea of double pants pockets, so you can cleanly show your pockets empty by pulling them inside-out, while you have your load in the OTHER secret pocket. =)

Small pockets in my sleeves - on the inside of the sleeve, about half way up your forearm.
You raise your hands up, the coin drops out. You lower your hands and the coin drops into the palm of your hand - and you're ready to go.

Among other pockets, etc... the most unusual altering I've had done to my wardrobe was to have special 'hold-outs' and pockets sewn under the flaps of both coat lapels.

"We magicians are strange folk."... as my tailor once commented to me years ago.

Cellini (also a Chavez student) has a couple of great extra front pockets in his pants.

They are very large, and he really makes great use of them. ANd not just for storing stuff, but for stealing and ditching items.

Anyone have any good books or dvds they recommend for some uses or construction of said pockets/clothing? Quarantine led me to getting my sewing machine finally and id love to start making some for when the world is normal again
