Why does only the left pocket of my jacket fill with lint?
Our answer
A worn pocket lining or rubbing on one side collects lint; inspect seams and adjust what you carry on that side.

Materials, cleaning instructions and equipment design vary. Pick a reversible approach that fits the exact surface or appliance.
Before you try it
