Has someone invented the new Snuggie? In a word, no. But someone who clearly wants the world's population to look like asshats did find a way to put holes in a towel and call it "wearable." The Wearable Towel is for those people who find towels and robes just too darn challenging in the morning ("Robes are heavy and hot!"). But the big difference between the Wearable Towel and the Snuggie is that the WT can be worn as either a tunic or a toga. So if you're living in ancient Greece or Rome, it's the perfect stocking stuffer! Otherwise, this invention seems a tad lazy and crazy. But I could be biased since I have a small place in my heart for the Snuggie. What do you think PopWatchers? Wearable Towel or Snuggie?…And let's not forget the Slanket!

My boss thought this was more important than the two issues we were working on last week that all my questions could wait till he played this informercial for me on his computer. And people wonder why print media is in such a bad condition…
This has been around for years….the ROBE!!
I’m buying one and wearing it whereever I go!
It looks like those suicide robes they give you at the nuthouse. Seriously though, if you can’t figure out how to tie up a towel, you probably shouldn’t be left alone near a shower.
Wearable Towel, Snuggie, both are ridiculous. These are Chia Pet: The Next Generation. Please find something better to report on.
This product makes me want to finally have children so I can dress them up in these outfits and see how quickly they get beaten up.
when you have a baby you could make them wear this

what is this world coming to?!?!
Haha, other newborns would beat my child to a bloody pulp with those monstrosities. They do look awfully warm and snuggly though. Hopefully the MEGA Baby size fits an adult male. If so, I am all over that.
I should rescind my previous comments. The white ones might become more popular than we think. The KKK pool party season will soon be in full swing, and Grand Dragons and Imperial Wizards alike will be wanting to sport the latest threads. And what self-respecting wife or girlfriend of a KKK member wouldn’t want to be involved in a wet wearable towel contest? You may be thinking, “But what would the first place winner get?” More wearable towels, of course.
It comes in red, white, and blue?! USA! USA! USA!
Interesting iea. I wonder how many times the product designer was hospitalized? A hospital gown as a towel from the makers of a hospital gown as a backwards robe. And my mom has a snuggie.
idea
I’d never ever buy one, but as much as I think it’s a silly idea, I sadly have to admit I see one instance where it would be practical… Maybe it’s the perspective from living near the beach talking, but there have been enough times that I’ve gotten out of the water and almost immediately into the car still fairly wet and had to spend time laying out towels to sit on or trying to wrap them up securely enough to drive.. maybe a slight time saver but still not a good enough reason to actually pay for such a thing.
why must i choose one or the other?
Thats like asking me to pick between a bathing suite or a sweater.
I WANT BOTH! NOOOOWWWW
I think the skeptics are just jealous that they didint think of it first…yeah yeah..towels and robes came first but as far as that snuggie thing….blankets serve one purpose…there blankets…. I guess living the good life on the beach just makes you think different then some fat lazy midwesterner knitting sweaters for their cats while wearing a blanket…oops I mean “snuggie”
