●DESIGNED FOR SCIENTISTS AND ENGINEERS: Every single detail of this product is designed to help scientists and engineers get their lab work done effortlessly by staying organized with every tool right where they need it. We polled hundreds of STEM researchers to find problems with existing designs and fix every single one. Our new design will save you time, reduce frustration, and protect your lab coat!
●20% MORE CAPACITY AND SECURE FIT: Deeper and wider pocket (145 mm x 93 mm) has 20% more capacity than most competitors. Fits taller lab utensils with a snug full-width fit to your pocket. Designed to perfectly fit the front pocket of our lab coats so it won’t fall out when you bend over. Works with pockets 94-120 mm wide and 130-170 mm tall.
●SOFT FAUX LEATHER: Upgrade from the flimsy vintage PVC to this robust synthetic leather that is soft to the touch with no animals harmed. The glossy surface is easier to clean than the fuzzy fibrous finish used in many polyurethane leather competitors. All seams are stitched and then bonded to prevent ink leaking from pens and markers onto your clean lab coat!
●FULL-LENGTH INNER DIVIDER: Thinner faux leather inner divider lets you secure pens and markers with tighter clips without breaking them off. It’s also full-length to prevent rubber pen grips from catching when pulling them out, and fully stitched to keep it from tearing out.
●ADD PERSONALITY TO YOUR LAB COAT: Our available colors are the winners out of 30+ options, upvoted from hundreds of scientists who wanted to add splashes of color and personality to their lab coats. Identify your lab coat on the rack more easily or get the multiple colors to quickly swap toolsets depending on your experiments that day.

Description

The next generation of Pocket Protector - Carefully designed by scientists for real lab work.

Add a splash of color to your lab coat - but not from a exploding pen.

It’s time to make the Pocket Protector cool again. It’s not just a nerdy pen and pencil holder for your shirt pocket. Scientists and engineers need these back in their labs to stay organized, stay efficient, protect their lab coats, and finish their experiments without being late to lunch. So we researched and tested every type ever made to methodically solve each problem and come up with this refreshed design. Here are some of our favorite improvements:

  • The classic flimsy white PVC pouch is replaced by robust but soft faux leather (no animals harmed), bonded and stitched to protect your lab coat from the ink in leaky pens.
  • Designed almost an inch deeper to fit taller lab utensils and a little wider to perfectly fit the pockets on our new lab coat line. (Check your pocket width and height for compatibility if not using it with our lab coat coming in late 2023.)
  • A thin inner divider for pens with smaller clips, and built full-length to prevent grips from catching when you pull them out.
  • Rectangular tab on the front flap for your badge clip and holder - no more digging it out from under your lab coat.
  • Angled top flaps form a hexagon (because we love hexagons)…and to give a sleeker, skinnier feel than the traditional blocky rectangle version.

Available in several colors so you can easily identify your lab coat from a colleague’s…or quickly swap them out with a different set of tools depending on what you’re doing that day.

Make your lab work smooth and efficient so you wont be late to lunch again.

Full-length leather inner divider

The only Pocket Protector on the market with a thin inner divider that runs the full length of the pocket and bonded at the edges. Other transparent plastic dividers break off easily and pen grips get caught on the bottom edge when you pull them out.

Hole for ID badge clip

That badge reader wont see you coming. Breeze between rooms with easy access to your ID badge without digging around under your lab coat.

Taller to fit real lab utensils

Other pocket protectors only fit pens, but in real lab work you have longer utensils you cant live without. We extended the pocket by almost an inch to securely hold a spatula or long tweezers, and to better fit the pocket depth of actual lab coats.

Double-stitched and bonded faux leather

Animal-free synthetic polyurethane leather is the best material for lab work. Its double-stitched at the edges and then heat bonded to form a complete seal - keeping that ink from your leaky pen on the inside, not all over your new lab coat.

How do we make these?

The founder designed these Pocket Protectors after finding many problems with both the classic design and the newer ones on the market. Our factory partner, specializing in leather work, cuts and sews them with <1 mm tolerances. Our logo is permanently debossed into the backing where it wont rub off. We personally inspect and package each one before sending to Amazons warehouse.
