One you wear to job interviews and when you go out celebrating with friends after they get the job you interviewed for. One that makes you feel like Don Draper working at Sterling Cooper while secretly maintaining the bank account balance of Don Draper post-divorce after his wife takes all of his money.
I'm pretty dope right now. Yeah, a legit suit is pretty awesome, but are you getting all you can out of your fancy business wardrobe? Probably not. This is just one more reason that suit jackets have their pockets sewn shut. While opening the pockets of a single jacket is relatively easy and quick, you have to remember that major manufacturers produce thousands of suits each year.
If a manufacturer decides to sell jackets with open pockets, it must invest the time and labor to opening the pockets of each jacket that it sells, which may be thousands or more per year.
Therefore, they choose to leave their pockets sewn shut. From the moment you bring home your suit jacket, you can begin wearing it. This alone is reason enough to at least consider leaving the pockets sewn shut. If it's held in place with a single, loose thread, snip a piece of it and pull gently. On real pockets, that thread will come out easily. If the stitching is more resistant, you probably have a faux pocket on your hands—and in that case, you should just leave it be.
A few other stitches on suit jackets and coats aren't needed, and you may want to remove them depending on your personal tastes. The reason for this is purely aesthetic.
Manufacturers want suits to retain their tailored look, but as people try the clothes on they can alter the fabric's shape. This is especially true with the pockets.
Stuffing your hands inside can stretch them out. The result is a slightly dilapidated-looking suit. Sewing pockets shut keeps suits looking fresh. You can remove the stitching yourself after buying it or keep it sewn shut to retain the crisp look.
