    In agreement with Griffin Leather that "Hot Pockets" belong in the microwave, not an apron.
    Navy dungarees had the same logic; though pockets a necessity safety dictated flaps on the chambray shirt and patch pockets on the trousers. The external fabric could be torn off if hot material entered, and the trouser leg offered insulation of cotton layer next to skin, inside where patch was sewn to. Also a minimal amount of elastic was used in issue boxer shorts waistband, elastic briefs frowned on for the burn potential of elastic.
    So add all the pockets you want. Attach them with snaps/ grippers/ buttons, for use when appropriate.
    There is no intention to demean any post; I'm all about the options and utility.
    Sincerely,
