Can be used in either I suppose on the jacket or trousers. It has no pocket bag and is sealed therefore false. We dont really do them in our Tailors but, sometimes If somebody wanted a pocket just as decoration but not open due to wanting the garment to remain 'neat' It could be used!

US Tailoring

That does sound tempting although I enjoy learning the whole process even the headaches (at times!). I would like to learn about more Tailors in the US, just find them quite hard to dig out on the internet I suppose, it is slightly easier in Britain due to us having Savile row.
