Agreed carrying stuff in pockets is not ideal/needed when on the bike but they come come in really useful when off the bike if you're touring.

Highly support buttoned hiking shirts, unbutton them for some airflow, button them up for the drizzle. Old Rohan is plentiful + affordable on the bay of dreams too.
Decathlon stem bag + barbag combo for #20 in total for ur food/spare tubes/whatever crap.

Hot weather: Buttoned collared shirt that's loose fit - I like older Rohan models with two pockets
Colder weather: Lightweight or heavyweight merino base layer
Bibs underneath if it's a long ride
Lightweight shorts - I like rab grey ones
^ this has been flawless for any ride I've done in the last 5 years!
Also carrying stuff in pockets is naff however you do it. Fix your pump to your frame, and get a little saddle bag / stem bag / whatever for tools and food.
