I'm more thinking along the lines of their claim that it's a good idea for things like credit cards... which are STRAIGHT and INFLEXIBLE... quite unlike what's underneath the pocket... one has to wonder how OBVIOUS it will be from the outside, as it were, that one is wearing a credit card shelf on one's boobage, for one, and how comfortable it can possibly be to have that hard-edged plastic in there - they're even mentioning KEYS - good GOd, I can't even stand UNDERWIRE...
Wow, that's a lame name. I'd go with "The Treasure Chest."
I suppose it's to keep things from getting lost in there, or from sticking to skin? I have a reasonable-sized space between my girls, and I've been known to stash things in there when I'm carrying the big basket down to the laundry and don't have any pockets (usually my cell phone, keys, and quarters).
I consider that space the benefit that makes up for the annoying necessity of wearing a bra.
Yabbut that's BETWEEN, which is a bona fide space - they're talking about a pocket which has a limited number of positions in which it can conceivably go - and I cannot pick ONE which would be comfortable for me. Maybe someone with the bosoms of a Dolly Parton has enough room to house a pocket which will take a credit-card-sized object without bending the object or sticking it out beyond the normal curve of the breast in question - but I don't see it happening with me. And putting stuff on the "underside" just makes me shudder with just the though of how damned uncomfortable it must be....
I have a small (flat) coin purse that use for my house key, a small amount of cash, ID and an ATM or credit card when I go walking.
It's just big enough to fit all that. It gets slipped into my bra, on the outside, right at the edge of the cup.
It's a slightly padded fabric, much like the bra cups I wear, but thinner. It's not visible, unless I'm wearing a t-shirt bra, and I get so used it it being there that I find myself checking. Another good reason to slip it in the side, I don't look like I'm touching my breasts all the time - and it's easier to get out discretely.
If it's the right type of fabric, you wont feel hard corners or points.
And I've never been a large size.
I've actually been doing it since I started wearing a bra, as my sports uniforms never had pockets, and I didn't want to carry a bag around all day - which would have made me a target for bullies. I've continued to do it, since most women's gym and sports wear don't seem to come with pockets anymore, and if they do, thing fall out.
