Here's a way of sewing in-seam pockets entirely on the front piece of the garment - reliably flat, you can add a zip and super easy to French seam the pocket bags together. Result!


There doesn't seem to be a recognised name for this type of in-seam pocket, although I've seen it referred to as "the couture method" *

The in-seam couture method is such a clean approach—never realized the difference between machine- and hand-stitching the pocket opening would make such a difference in durability. I've been using https://aiphototemplate.com

I've been struggling with in-seam pockets looking bulky, so your couture method of grading and pressing the seam open sounds like a game-changer. The precision involved really makes sense for maintaining a clean line. https://wanxaivideo.com
