牛仔裤上的迷你口袋用途何在？
Ever wonder why there's a teeny-tiny pocket above the regular ones in the front of your jeans? Or, more likely, have you ever gotten your thumb stuck in there due to its teeny-tiny smallness? Well, wonder no longer.
有没有想过，牛仔裤口袋上方的迷你口袋用途何在？或者，更有可能的情况是，你有没有把大拇指插到这个口袋里然后拔不出来的经历？哈哈，我们今天就来揭开这个谜底。
It's a watch pocket, originally for men who wore pocket watches and needed a protective place to store them. Though, as Levi's points out, the pocket has also served many other purposes over time, from condom storage to coin hoarding.
Faaahbulous!
The burning question arose last week after curious minds re-discovered a Quora thread in which users have discussed this mysterious fifth pocket for years.
The Levi Strauss blog confirms their conclusion: "The first blue jeans had four pockets—only one in back and, in the front, two plus the small, watch pocket. This extra pouch has served many functions... condom pocket, coin pocket, match pocket and ticket pocket, to name a few."
The pocket appears on the oldest pair of jeans in the Levi's archives, which date to about 1879, Levi's historian Tracey Panek told HuffPost.
