Other people don't seem to notice. If they bother you and you've already committed to the pants by removing the tags, I would have the pockets removed. That is, if you won't miss the pockets and will find that you want to wear the pants more without them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1363329 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 13:53:51 +0000 gardenchick 1363329@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great on you! I'm not bothered by seeing the pockets. But as others have said, if they do bother you, cut them out. Do keep the pants! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1363324 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 13:42:46 +0000 jackiec 1363324@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great pants! The pockets don't bother me in the least. I love your versions with the teal top and the gold top.

No matter, what the season is. I have camis in every neutral shade and they make it possible for me to wear white or lighter coloured tops all year round. Have you thought about trying camis?<br /><b>Aida and merwoman</b>, thanks for chiming in. I think I will have them removed.<br /><b>Tanya</b>, I was thinking about you when I posted this question. In your pictures, the pockets are not visible at all. In Karen's pictures, although they were in broad day light, the pockets were not visible. But on me, they are definitely more visible. Sometimes, I think I could be because of my darker coloured skin. And this is a sized up pair. Any bigger than this and the pants will be falling right off me.<br /><b>Suz and bj1111</b>, actually this is just like it looks irl. I think I will have them removed as I don't like the show through. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1363153 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 04:18:14 +0000 bj1111 1363153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i have these pants and i have the same concern about the pockets, Mona. &nbsp;i thought about having them removed, but then i thought what else will people see! &nbsp;i think i will just sew them shut like other pants and just deal. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1363142 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 04:11:31 +0000 Suz 1363142@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great on you, pockets or no. I'm not bothered by the show through here...and I suspect it is worse in the pics than IRL. But if it bothers you, then have them taken out for sure. Love both these outfits.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1363060 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 02:30:40 +0000 Tanya 1363060@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same chinos and the pockets do not bother me - perhaps because I sized up and they are pretty loose.&nbsp; Strangely enough, the pockets on my white jeans did bother me so I had those removed and sewn shut.&nbsp; I vote remove the pockets if they bother you&nbsp; a lot, otherwise I wouldn't worry about them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1363020 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 01:01:09 +0000 merwoman 1363020@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They look great on you Mona - stunning with both sweaters. The pockets don't bother me at all in looking at these pics, but why not have a go at removing them? I know I wouldn't miss pockets, and wouldn't think twice about giving them up - heck that's what my clutch/purse is for </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1362989 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 00:16:27 +0000 Aida 1362989@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They don't bother <i>me</i> and I <i>would</i> miss having the pockets because I use mine all the time. But if you won't miss the pockets and they bother you, definitely get them sewn shut. The pants look great! Especially love it with the sparkly sweater and loafers. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1362978 Fri, 26 Sep 2014 00:03:48 +0000 always trying 1362978@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I was lucky enough to find two pair of white that we're thick enough the pockets did not show. However, finding white tops for summer was another matter....everything was too transparent for me. When will we ever get back to non see thru white garments? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1362972 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 23:53:14 +0000 Mona 1362972@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The thing is that I can't return these. I have already cut off the tags and worn them twice. I think I am going to have the pockets removed by my seamstress.&nbsp;<br />I have done it before with my white bootcuts and did not miss them.&nbsp;<br />The underwear showing through is a bigger issue but most of my tops are longer in the back now so that should take care of that.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1362968 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 23:46:05 +0000 Kristin L 1362968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pockets themselves don't bother me, but I would be worried about them see through like N-Marie said. If you're not sure, I'd take them back. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1362954 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 23:18:38 +0000 N-Marie 1362954@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The pockets would bother me. &nbsp;I find them distracting. &nbsp;And if you can see the pockets, there's a good bet you can see underwear too unless you remember every single time to match perfectly to your skin tone.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1362950 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 23:07:24 +0000 Anonymous 1362950@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I tried these on over the summer too Mona, and didn't buy them for that pocket reason. Cutting the pockets out seemed counterproductive - I love front pockets, and a pant without them is kind of useless. &nbsp;I figured that I could find something else less sheer (because you know if it's that sheer in the front , the same is happening in the back, which isn't the greatest look ) and I did. &nbsp;Pocket show -through also makes the pants look like they are too tight - which they aren't on you...but you know what I mean? &nbsp;I would pass. I'm sure there will be others out there . </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1362942 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 22:54:59 +0000 Gigi 1362942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>FWIW, the pockets don't bother me. I would keep them—but I love my pockets! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/br-city-chinos-a-question#post-1362910 Thu, 25 Sep 2014 22:09:11 +0000 Mona 1362910@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I bought these when Angie first put them in her finds. After trying them on, I returned them as I thought the fit was off. They came on sale a couple of weeks ago and after seeing them on beautiful Karen, I grabbed them again. I like the fit but the pockets bother me a lot. They are very visible even in this sized up pair. Should I have them removed? </p>
