No, we will not be testing them for the next Tip Jar campaign. So don't ask.
Wearable Towel (Please, make it stop)
Toga Towel Shatters Fragile Snuggie Ceasefire [Gawker]
the thread count is 550 we picked that becuse our R&D showed us that when we went over that level, the towel got hard after a couple washes but at 550 after we washed it over ten times it was still soft, the wearable towel has the same quality as a towel you would buy in BB&B for 40 buck, we don't want you're money, we just dont want you taking up so much bathroom time..lol
]]>@dohtem:
Your definition of style is slightly different than mine.
]]>but after the "it's not just a dress, it's actually a full length towel you can lay on" demonstration, i'm sold. and the star wars-esk music. i'm wearing all three this 4th of july!!!
]]>@calchip: Somehow.. way back then, my mom aquired one of those things.. and man.. let me tell you.. IT HURT.. Oh my goodness.. Especially with a mom that is working with waist length hair and trying to rush out the door to get to work/school on time.. Holy moly.
My scalp still has fears of the topsy tail.
]]>@supercereal: I can't recall the last time I had to kill 2 hours between taking a shower and getting dressed.
And, maybe someone could explain the scenario of wearing a towel, not a robe, to get the paper. (Not that I would do either one.)
]]>Can I rent one?
]]>Perfect for wearing over your wholesome swimwear

(And I'm not very brave, and the "having" part wasn't so bad. I mean, no picnic, but not nearly as terrifying as I anticipated. Then I remembered, people do this a second time ON PURPOSE (and a third and a fourth and a sixteenth if you're a Duggar ...) so it can't be THAT bad!)
@katieoh: I am definitely on board with Morgan Freeman in a froggy-hood towel!
@alternatestory: TY. :)
@Who wants chowdah??: Brain bleach! Brain bleach! ;)
]]>LOL!
I should have told her I wanted a SlapChop and a PedEgg.
@Rectilinear Propagation: and the result can be achieved by loosening the ponytail and pulling it through the separation you made. Not that I ever wore my hair that way...
]]>It could be a good idea for people who have roommates, my curves don't always stay wrapped in a regular towel, and I had an unfortunate incident while holding the dog back from mormon missionairies in a bathrobe. as I result I no longer answer the door in my robe and live with the husband, not towel or robe required
]]>The best part is that each hair style is just a slightly different version of a pony tail.
]]>And I thought that because of this: [www.adultswim.com]
]]>Thanks Grandma! I'll put it by the cat-shaped cookie jar you got us for our engagement.
]]>Yeah, and you could totally make this yourself out of some hand towels. In fact, I bet hand towels would look better than this!
]]>This actually reminds me of the Topsy Tail ( [www.asseenontv.com] )
In case you haven't heard of it, it was basically a $20 bent coathanger with a page of instructions on how to use it to flip your long hair into various unattractive hairstyles.
Amazingly, people bought that too.
]]>I find the tunic-style ingenous. But the toga style is really absurd.
]]>Dad would appreciate me getting mom the helmet, though.
(Especially if mom was driving).
I keed, I keed.
]]>Towels already are wearable. I wear one around my waist every morning after I shower. My wife wears one around her body and one on her head after a shower.
Also bathrobes are this but they look like they were designed for this millenium.
]]>@katieoh: I just spit soda. That was too funny. Congrats, you win 1 internets. :)
]]>For the record, I'm afraid that having a baby will be the scariest thing in my life. But the after part sounds like something I'd be up for.
Also, a frog-hoodie towel-wrap thing sounds adorable.
]]>My birthday is tomorrow and my sister said she got me a present. She likes to "surprise" me.
God, I hope it's not a Snuggie. Although if she got me the SlapChop I would love it.
]]>Or sew two towels together and use the hand towel to make the straps.
Seriously, this thing looks homemade.
]]>I tried it once when I was home alone. It didn't quite cover all.
]]>Oh wait, almost forgot: My eyes. MY EYES. Oh GAWDS please scoop out my EYES!"
]]>Oh mr. Belushi, we hardly knew that thou was such a profit of style.
]]>Two Words. Bath Robe. That's all it is, but unlike bath robes that look totaly awesome around the house, these look rediculus.
]]>Seriously, while this thing might (MIGHT!) have some convenience factor, the whole "towels are too complicated" marketing pitch doesn't really fly.
]]>I actually had a terry cloth shirt when I used to paddle every day. It was perfect, light enough to wear when its hot out on my way to the beach, and warm enough to throw on after paddling for 2-3 hours at practice and head home. I also know several girls who wear similar shirts over their bathing suits so they dont walk around in a bikini.
]]>1: Go to walmart buy $4 towel.
2: Cut 3 holes one of the long sides.
3: Save $15.95 and continue to look retarded.
Is this Towelie's punishment for shooting Oprah in the cooch?
]]>Lovin' the guy in the toga!!!!
]]>Oh crap, my birthday is coming up, and my mom hasn't asked me what I want...
*cringe*
]]>like morgan freeman. awww, morgan freeman in a froggy-hood towel!
]]>Mind you, I can't wrap a towel around me...I don't have a large enough towel. But I'm pretty sure this would just look stupid on me...and about everyone except for the Adonis wearing it toga style. (And he's only pulling it off because he's fit. Now imagine overweight speedo man, or grandma in one of those things.)
...So, how much do we have to donate to Consumerist to get THIS tested?
]]>I think that is the maximum age for wearable towels. If the frog hood makes you look stupid instead of incredibly adorable, you are outside the age range for this product type.
]]>Toga! toga! toga!
