I worked at a company where they gave you a bunch of small, yet vital, tools such as pens, tweezers, inspection mirrors, etc to use which had a habit of falling out of your smock pocket/leaking/etc. People constantly had issues with removing all of these things from their pockets at break, end of shift, and such because they'd get easily dropped, roll under machines, and such...
Being a bit of an old school nerd I thought to myself "Why not get a pocket protector to keep all of this stuff tidy and simplify things?" and, of course, my first stop was Amazon! At first I found the options to be either flimsy looking plastic ones that weren't really suitable or hand crafted custom leather ones that cost more than I could justify for my little 'project', but I soon found these babies.
These pocket protectors are better built than the cheap heat-welded plastic jobbers but not insanely overbuilt like the 'artisan' handmade leather ones, with a fairly durable 'pleather' construction that's proven to be fairly durable. There's a clear plastic inner strip that serves as an inner hanging 'bar' which turned out to be very useful for keeping tweezers, probes, and the like in a separate 'tier' from items such as pens or pencils.
I put my miscellaneous gear into the protector, slid it into my smock pocket, and almost immediately got compliments from my co-workers, who instantly recognized the merits of using a pocket protector for those annoyingly hard to wrangle but essential items. At the end of the day it was super easy to slip it out, with all the gear in tow, and place it into the locker so I could slink out the door just a bit faster, which was a massive benefit IMHO.
If you've got a bunch of things you have to have, which are pocket-sized, and which need to be wrangled up into a neat, presentable 'unit' that you can slip into (or out of) your shirt pocket this helps immensely. You can keep the extra(s) for spares or, if you actually have co-workers that you like, give it to them!
