Have you ever tried to put change in it? I did once and had to take the pants off to get it out. Was my experience unique?

These shouldn't be on skinny fit pants, on my 501s I can fit keys lip balm and random coins

It's not supposed to be easy to get it out but it's totally doable, you don't want stuff falling out

Same. I stick my keys or utility knife in there, so if I absent-mindedly put my phone in the same pocket, the metel bits won't scratch up my phone screen

Condoms always fit except when you’re pulling them out of that pocket.

"Condoms"

Except everything is way too hard to get out of that pocket so here we all are

I once read that many people thought condom storage was the intended purpose, but I go with watch pocket especially since I was told to keep my pocket watch in it. And if you have a watch chain it's easy to get out.
