Same with the pockets. Every girlfriend I've had has ranted about pockets being non-existant or just fake pockets for decoration, none of them have gone out of their way to buy pants with pockets.

Even if you could easily buy them, would most women trade-off the pants looking nice and being form fitting in exchange for pockets?

Let's be honest, having a huge rectangle sticking out of your tight is not the most flattering look. There's a trade-off. Hell, if all we cared about were pockets, we would all be wearing cargo pants.

Bad business attitude. What if others start using quality zippers?
