They don't make men's shirts with chest pockets anymore?????

We was recently looking for a “ good” shirt for My husband to wear to a ball ….none to be found with a top pocket
The sizing is changing as well ( men’s and woman’s ) a site I look at for tops is listing sizes as …
Asian …Aus …or US

Underware with pockets is listed ~ as travel ware ~ or sports ware so joggers / runners / travelers… can put their keys / phones / credit cards in a safe area …where it’s not going to bounce out of jogger pants pockets or be stolen

On our recent 7 week stay in Coolangatta ( QLD) noticed allot of joggers / runners with a bulge on their side ..where they had phones under their outer ware clothing

( without exaggeration there are 100’s jogging on WEEKENDS …in Qld ) Where we stay …it’s got the good climate in winter …

Men's shirts with chest pockets are certainly still readily available. The issue I've run into has been pockets that are too small. I'm still able to find acceptable shirts but I have returned more than a few for that exact reason. I can't imagine an astute manufacturer trying to save two cents per shirt by making the chest packets uselessly small.

Fortunately I've been able to get denim shirts with chest pockets large enough to hold a cell phone (though I rarely carry one).
 
I can’t seem to find shirts that fit comfortably and look good when I remove my jacket. As for my dress shirts, I have them tailored made. They are very expensive, but they look so well fit, it’s worth it. I had the same done for my shirts I wore when I flew for United. I used their shirt and then had my tailor custom fit it.
 
I hate shirts with no breast pocket, I have complained,
that I have nowhere to put my glasses now.

I thought that it was to cut the buying price,
but they still put the retail price up, a lot, here.

Sometimes I see them with pockets.

I was at Penny's, when I met a fellow geezer. He was complaining that there were no shirts with chest pockets That's where we used to carry our smokes. And he was right; I could not find a shirt that had pockets.
