Pen's shirt home
A breast pocket is a pocket on the upper front of a shirt or jacket, typically on the left side over the chest.
It's sized for small flat items—a handkerchief, reading glasses, a pen, or business cards: He tucked the letter into his breast pocket.
Distinguished from side or hip pockets by its position near the heart.
