Looking for any first hand recommendations on jeans with nice, deep pockets for pocket carry. I have cargo pants that are fine, but most of my jeans have pretty shallow pockets. I just wondered what folks have run across with good pockets and a “loose” enough cut (without having to buy pants two sizes too big) to facilitate pocket carry.

Thanks!!
 
I like lee jeans, they aren't $50 a pair and they're cut is more normal with good pockets. Try to find levis that aren't tapered down at the ankle, crotch stitching located some where near your belly button and pockets too small for an NAA. Oh and Levi Strauss is anti 2A.
I've run the gauntlet on jeans, couldn't tell you how many pairs I bought or my wife bought me that either shrink beyond use the first time they're washed or are just so tight in the leg and or crotch they're unbearable .
I'm 6'1" , 190 lb and wear a 32/30. Trouble I have with most jeans is if the waist fits right the legs are so tight and skinny it's miserable and they look ridiculous. I do have some pairs of jeans with a 34 waist but I wear them in the winter if I'll have long johns or fleece pants on underneath.
Everyone has a preference but I'm picky and haven't got a single complaint with the Lee's . pockets are big enough to pocket carry a g42, which is pretty good.
Clothes shopping is one of the most miserable tasks on earth, goodluck to you.
 
Wrangler relax fit WITH FLEX FIT. (or whatever they call it) I'm not sure about durability but they are $20 each so buy several.:)

It was impossible for me to pocket carry with of all of my other jeans. Wrangler makes them without the flex fit and those did not work for me, too tight in the leg when sitting while pocket carrying.
 
Wrangler, relaxed fit carpenter jeans. I buy them for $25 at my local Meijers. Pocket carry Ruger EC9S with DeSantis holster.
 
loose fit and boot cut jeans aren't as easy to find now-a-days with the over abundance of skinny mom jeans for "men".

Rural King...or your region's farm store equivalent. Got clothes there for big boys and girls.:thumbup:

not for "big" folks, just not long daisy dukes is what I mean. skinny jeans are hard for me to pull over my legs and they hurt my junk when I sit. plus I don't like how low they ride, like 1968 hippy chic jeans or something. I tried on a few pairs about a year ago and just couldn't do it comfortably.
 
Mountain Khaki Alpine Utility pants. They have a third front pocket behind the regular one on the right side. The entrance is hidden in the side seam. The pockets have reenforced bottoms and are deep enough I can put a 4-inch heavy barrel model 10 in them without the grip showing.
 
LLBean designs thoughtful clothes. The pockets are big enough for a 642 to disappear into, but not so big you have to bend over to make change.

Thanks! I’ll have to go check out the LL Bean outlet down the road! ;)

Again, trust me.
You wont be disappointed.
They're worth the $.

I’m going to look for somewhere where I can try them on...I’m not ready to spend that much before I know how they fit.
