So you've got a very vocal market calling out their demand for a product that is more or less trivial to manufacture, and yet not a single entrepreneur has successfully brought the product to market. Why would that be?
There are retailers who have pockets in women‘s clothing by default but it does have some marginal cost. In a world of fast fashion, if they can get away with it, they will.
A quick search confirms that women's clothing with pockets does in fact exist, so the niche is getting served.
It takes significantly more time in shopping. Online, the normal look at 25 items to find one that matches my style preferences and is available in my size, then add clicking through all the product detail tabs to try to figure out if it has pockets, 80% of them don't, and of the ones that do it's mostly hope that they aren't poorly designed where everything falls out of them upon sitting down.
I appreciate that, with a multiple of the shopping time investment required by men or women who don't value pockets, and some fallout in unusable pockets, women's clothing with pockets is available. But I sure wish it was more available.
