I get my pockets switched by a local tailor... as John just posted, Mt. Borah makes a nice 'bent jersey with pockets on the sides, at a reasonable price. Kucharik makes a jersey with pockets in the front, but I consider the placement of them to be too high -- feels more like an underwire bra (or so I've heard) Cheesy
