Can't carry it in my regular jeans as it is to big for them, as the pocket is not that big or baggy enough. Your build and how you dress/what you wear will determine if it is pocket-able or not. I can in something like this one:

Nice setup. But I have to agree, unless you're always going to wear cargo pants the XDS really isn't a pocket carry gun. I use a Whitehat Maxtuck IWB with my XDS and given it's size I really wouldn't go with the XDS for a pocket carry. I use my Kel-Tec 32 for my pocket carry and that works fine.
As others have said there are better options for a pocket carry but IMHO, the XDS is one of the best CC .45ACP out there.

I'm always wearing some form of khaki's and they tend to have pockets large enough to pocket carry my glock26
If i wear jeans all the time theres no way it would work.
I mostly just like the option of pocket carry for the quick and easy grab and go
