I have 2 pairs of women's pj's from Woolrich and the flannel pants of both pairs have pockets in them. The tops are like long-sleeved T-shirts with a little larger neck. I love them - very comfy!

I just wish they'd make them longer...I'm rather tall, and it just irks me to buy something that, once washed, now comes up to about half calf :(

Inside pocket to repel pickpockets. NONE.

Men's good jackets always have these inside pockets for valuables. But women's jackets that cost as much or far more,
simply do NOT. When I want any in mine, I have to either match the lining for a patch pocket, which I feel is best, or put in a hanging pocket.

When are we going to get some designer who actually ASKS women what they want? Think that'll come in our life times?
I'm wanting to hit the "like" button : )

Absolutely!! I have to fit my top and the bottoms fall off me. So I always have to add more elastic in the waste (because they sewed theirs in so I can't just tighten it). I just can't get past the reasoning in this pocket thing. Why do men get a pocket and we don't? haha ticks me off.

And yes, I have stolen my husbands pj bottoms and warn them with a T shirt but my arms have been so cold that I wanted long leaves which I stopped buying while having all those dar-n hot flashes. Now I'm freezing all the time. haha

I"m so glad I am not the only one. If I am not going out I put on clean jammies or sweats after my shower. Comfortable !
