Keeping keys and other metallic property in pockets wears them out and spoils the line of garments. (The importance of this line is the reason women's clothes often don't have pockets.)I get endless complaints about the weight of my jackets when they apparently "need" to be moved. Weighed down by numerous keys equally balanced side to side. My explanations seem to fall on deaf ears but I've never not been able to find a key unlike those around me who continue to ask "have you seen.....?".
I sometimes replace trouser/jeans pockets for males of my acquaintance after damage from carrying keys and coins around.
My own pockets would get the same treatment until I went for the lanyards and, I suspect, since I've almost completely stopped carrying cash around.
