In this installment, I’m joined by Marjolein Kik, a Dutch academic specializing in dress history and experimental archaeology. Their research into the history of Dutch pockets takes center-stage in this episode. We start with the question: What is experimental archaeology?

We discussed materials, sewing techniques and designs used to make pockets between 1650 and 1950.
