Analysis, part 18a - Calf Pockets, Positioning and Height

At the bottom of each ENT jumpsuit pant leg was a calf pocket.

Thankfully, these pockets were symmetrical, which simplifies our analysis considerably!

Unlike the chest and thigh pockets, the ENT jumpsuit's calf pockets extended all the way to the side seam (or, more specifically, all the way to the pant leg's side zipper).

Although the outer edges of the calf pockets extended all the way to the side seam (lower leg zipper), the centermost edges of the calf pockets did not extend all the way to the inseam. 

Furthermore, the centermost edge of the calf pockets was not parallel to the jumpsuit's inseam; it was diagonally slanted.

The calf pocket appeared to usually extend upward to about 1-2" beneath the wearer's knee.

Unsurprisingly, the calf pocket height did not appear to be standardized and varied considerably:
