Anyone pocket carry a M&P 9MM Shield Plus?

I recently bought a M&P 9MM Shield Plus and I love it. I have been looking for the most practical way to conceal carry it and have been working on appendix carrying it... then I came across a friend who pocket carries his Sig Sauer P365 and swears by it.

I believe the Sig Sauer P365 is a little smaller than the Shield Plus but not by much... (I don't have both pieces in my hand to compare them)

Which brings me to my question - has anyone here ever pocket carried a Shield Plus? If so, any wisdom you could share? If not, how do you conceal carry it instead?

I live in Florida and wearing outer garments like a jacket don't work.

Thanks!
Mine is on its way and same question , I'm in florida also and haven't worn long pants in 4 years and maybe 5.times I wore a hoodie since moving from ct. My j frame 357 is my edc simply because I know I'll bring it with me. I'm hoping I can pocket carry this shield also. I hate holsters ,I'd rather carry 2 j frame revolvers in my shorts pockets than have a.leather holster making me uncomfortable when it's 95 degrees or higher for 5 straight months man!
 
I'm in Florida too. I pocket carry my shield 9mm. The key is deep pockets. LAPG operator tactical shorts, $30, are the best.
They also have them in pants.
I use a DeSantis nemesis pocket holster.
Ive tried iwb at every position but it's just not for me. If I can't wear those shorts or pants, I'll carry my bodyguard .380. Good luck!
I've just been wearing big basketball shorts with giant deep pockets ,I can fit my edc jframe revolver easily with no holsters and if I want more rounds I can fit my 327c with 8 rounds of mags no problem but it's a bit heavy if I'm going to do alot of walking, the florida thing makes it tough for me as I'm a ct boy who's only been here 4 years but it's shorts and a t-shirt 99 percent of the time. I'm going to look into those shorts you mentioned as I'm 64 years old and dress like a teenager so I can carry a gun LMFAO
