I only saw it once when I was a kid myself, I think.
Perhaps Robin forewent panties so as to avoid people remarking that his costume was seasonally festive, with the red'n'green color scheme going on.
Except that he still had little green sleeves peeking out from under his tunic, as well as the gay, gay green pixie boots of gayitude.
Mainly the panties (if they were there) hid behind the buttocks-length cape or the front of his tunic, which did not split below the belt as we're accustomed to seeing. Sensible design, really. Perhaps one too many Gotham super-criminal remarked on how excited Robin seemed after a fight...
