Benefits of technology

The present invention provides a garment with a sleeve that can hold items like eyewear or a pen. The pocket is integrated into the garment and is inconspicuous, keeping the garment's original look.

Problems solved by technology

Storing the eyewear in manners such as these tend to be unsightly and the eyewear can be easily lost, damaged or broken when the eyewear tumbles out and away from these unsecured locations as the user bends down or moves quickly.
However, the eyewear does not fit securely when stored in a pocket and may become bent in a pants pocket or fall out of a shirt pocket when an individual bends over.
