I live with a couple of trans men that occasionally wear women's jeans, and they got so fed up with the pocket size that they just went and bought some cheap fabric and sewed their own massive pocket extensions.

That's what I've started to do! One of my pants didn't not have pocket, it had FAKE pockets, with zippers but not fabric, just... zippers for decoration? I started with those and after seeing that it was not that difficult, I started adding/widening all pockets everywhere made out of old clothes. POCKETS yeey!!!

Why I wear scrub pants 90% of the time. Deep pockets, easy to clean, still look pretty good, cheap as fuck at most overstock stores.

Step 1: Sell shirt that requires new bras

Step 2: Sell new bras

Step 3: Profit?

That's called vertical integration.

They start lacing their bras with a powder that makes breasts grow so you have to keep buying new bras

With only a little bit of cancer and microplastics

~~Marks~~ Customers can have a little bit of cancer, as a treat.

Don't worry, once average boob size gets outrageously large, they'll start lacing it with another powder to shrink them down again which can increase their cancer benefits package from the previous powder by up to 300%

The person who manages to design discreet detachable pockets will be a millionaire.

I wear a phone holder on my belt. There are arm bands, fanny packs, flat stretchy belt-adjacent things. Products exist. We just haven't achieved critical mass of women not interested in carrying purses who are interested in spending the extra shopping effort to find pants or cardigans or button up shirts with near-waist-level pockets (I am discounting boob pockets here).
