I have to concur with the main advice above – if you are going to carry things in your pockets, you need to minimize what you carry. Also, you just need to accept that it may affect your clothing options. I prefer pleated pants to a certain extent because I normally load my pockets (wallet, keys, small pocket knife, comb, handkerchief, a little change). Cell phone and pocket watch (I hate wrist watches!) go on the belt. I don’t wear close fitting pants, nor do I worry about bulges under the jacket at the waistline. This lack of concern for fine lines and dressing right may be a “guy thing”, but there it is – putting stuff in your pockets will make them bulge, and it is noticeable for those who care. I just don’t know too many guys who do.
Oh, and watch the keys – too many keys on the ring, and it will wear the pockets out from the inside rather quickly. Not to mention poking you in uncomfortable places when you sit down.
