Have you ever bought a coat or jacket and wondered if the pockets were fake because they are sewn shut? Well the answer is simple, they are meant to be used. They ship them that way from the factory to keep the pockets looking good while they are on display and to discourage the clients from putting their hands in the pockets when they try them on. You are supposed to cut the seam open with a seam ripper or a small nail cutter. Sometimes they can help you at the store. Just do it slowly and make sure you don’t cause damage to the surrounding area. Leaving the pocket sewn shut would be the same as leaving the plastic cover on your new couch.

That makes complete sense now…
