Dutch term or phrase: gepaspoilleerd
I am currently translating protective clothing specifications (for the Emergency Services), and am struggling with the above term (Google search produced very few hits).

The context is as follows:

"De trui is samengesteld uit 50% polyacryl fixé, geconfectioneerd en voorzien van V- hals, omgeslagen boord en manchetten, met schouder- en elleboogversterking, met een enkel gepaspoilleerde borstzak en mouwemblemen."

All suggestions welcome - KudoZ points will be awarded within 72 hours.

Many thanks,

Anne

Set-in pocket with flap and patch emblems on sleeve
Explanation:
Tina says that the material is inside, i.e. you do not see the pocket but only the pocket flap. Such a pocket is called a "set-in" pocket. Such a pocket in the trouser area is called a "swing" pocket! Anyhow that is how we differentiated them and called them in the protective wear industry I worked in.

welt pocket


Explanation:
It depends. I would say most likely it is a welt pocket, which has one piece on the front, such as a suit jacket. The welt (de paspel) is the attached piece covering the pocket hole. If it's a work suit then this seems more likely.

By the way, the difference with bound is that bound pockets or buttonholes appear to have a bottom and top piece (actually it is one piece attached to the back and folded over. So if you have a picture you will know which it is.

bound


Explanation:
It's called a 'bound pocket' (compare also 'bound buttonhole').
Good illustration on the website below.

Unfortunately, the above URL leads only to the cover of the book. The bound pocket is inside (click on 'preview this book') on page 157-158.

agree  ans wegter: this is what I mean, but I did't know the correct English word for it
12 hrs
  -> Thank you Ans.
disagree  L.J.Wessel van Leeuwen: If by illustration you mean the pocket shown on the red jersey, than I am afraid that it is a patch pocket. Admittedly since it is a knitwear, the technique is different. It is "knitted" on either by hand or by m/c.

  -> You are right, the pocket on the book cover is a patch pocket. The bound pocket is inside the book.
