This thread got me looking to see what my preference actually is. According to what I own currently, 46mm is the porridge I’m eatin’. Not great for a pocket. Great for the soul!!

I prefer them to be more pocket friendly, which most are, but if it’s super wide it’s never going to work anyway haha! A few pairs of my older jeans have the faded circle and I love it. Back in the day we used to say “It’s not Skoal in my pocket” haha! I have found in the recent year or two I haven’t been carrying as much as I used to. I used to go everywhere with one in my pocket but now days I don’t go out as much except to the store and back home so I rarely am out enough to need to take one.

Is there really a yo-yo that fits in a pocket? Some might fit better than others, but for the most part, the design of the yo-yo does not lend itself to the pocket.

At first I was thinking about this a bit but in reality I’m never going to have a yoyo in my pocket like ever. If anything it’ll be in my backpack so I can just take it out from there

No love for the janus? I like light yoyos which usually aligns with small yoyos. So small yoyos are prefered per causality.

I prefer slim throws. I’m older so, some bias maybe, however I hate YoYo holsters. For EDC I always go pocket-able. My profile picture says it all I suppose. 🙂

I just purchased a Janus and it’s interesting…

Is there a means to which we can reach the point between wearing a bloop holder unironically, and being able to fit a regular sized yoyo in one’s pocket? like I feel like there’s something out there. (not counting those yomega holsters)

For me pocketability is narrow yoyos. Best I’ve used and loved are the G2 Jackal, Markmont. Black Canon, One Drop Deep State.
