Make sure you haven't put them on back to front...........
The societies of consumption and squandering of material resources are incompatible with the idea of economic growth and a clean planet.

I find it easier for it to be on the left, even though I'm right-handed. I understand why some in our office prefer it on the right though - the bulk of their stomach is impossible to reach across to access a left-sided pocket.

Simple answer would be to have 2 cargo pockets and 2 back pockets but i suppose that would cost too much

I ordered new trousers about 2 weeks ago and they still had the pocket on the left but the pockets do seem deeper.
