Pockets first began appearing on waistcoats and trousers about 500 years ago. As you probably already know, about half the population wasn't wearing trousers back then.

These pockets functioned like purses and could hold enough treasures to make Mary Poppins (and her infinitely expanding carpet bag) jealous.
