German term or phrase: Brustleistentasche
Hello again,

The same jacket apparently has a "Brustleistentasche", which, according to this website http://www.gastronomiebekleidung.de/webshop/warengruppe9.htm... is a "nach Innen eingearbeitete Brusttasche". Anyone know what this is called in (UK) English?

Thanks very much!

welt pocket
Explanation:
inset rather than sewn-on from the outside - just the 'welt' (edge/trim) that is visible on the outside .. can also be called piped, if the edging is very narrow.

So it's got a welt pocket on the chest/breast.
