Kate, where french packet use? In a jacket, in a trousers, in a set-in pocket? The Russian sew technology doesn’t have this term… :?:

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!
