It's with considerable relief that I can tell you that it's now possible to buy in the UK boxer shorts with pockets for iPods (or, perhaps, fags or mobile phones).
The pants, initially only available from the specialist underwear web side Freshpair.com, are now being sold in-store and off the web by UK iPod specialist popXpress.
Price isn't cheap and so not likely to knock out Tesco's five-for-fiver business. But, at £22.81 per pair (inc delivery and VAT), they're slightly more affordable than the $55 all-up price if buying from Freshpair in the States - and you won't have to worry about Custom & Excise chasing you for VAT and whatever import duties there might be on underwear.
Oh, and anyone passing by popXpress's store near London's Liverpool Street station can pick up one or more pairs for just £16.99 each. Bargain!
