Lots of pants out there that have pockets. They often choose not to buy them. And when they do, they put nothing in them.
For what it’s worth, according to my wife and 4 daughters it’s because it’s because if you put things in your pockets like guys do, it ruins the lines and look. And according to our oldest daughter, it’s why cargo shorts and pants look bad on men. And should never be worn.
Not really. Many times we wear something called dhoti on top of underwear (instead of pants). This dhoti does not have any pockets. In such cases, it will certainly help.
Even when I wear pants over the underwear, having extra pockets is a luxury.
Please tell me those are not a real thing.
Hi. Person who has identified male my entire life here.
I have no idea what this “cell phone pocket” in underwear thing is about. Sounds like lunacy to me.
That said, give pockets to women who want pockets. It is baffling to me that this is still a thing.
I think I’ve seen them in some compression shorts so that you can run in loose mesh shorts. Can’t run with your phone in those.

I’ve been given gifts of underwear with pockets. They might hold one of the old style cell phones, at the peak of ‘small is best.’
Those are definitely real. All my underwears (trunks) have 2 pockets each and I can put my phone in it. FYI, I’m from India
I don’t understand the use case. Do you often go around in only your underwear, over there?
