It's a speed suit.

[–]Zafinar 17 points18 points ago

The perfect habiliment for the science-minded man who knows both comfort and ease and demands them from his clothing. In a speed suit you say to the world, "look out I know what I'm wearing for the rest of my life!"

Anyone see the episode of Freaks and Geeks where the kid gets one of these?

[–]nopantsirl 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah, it was referred to as a Parisian Nightsuit. /Sigh I miss that show.

[–]gaygineer 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Yeah a show like Arrested Development was cut short but it still had enough episodes where it felt like the family's story had been told. Freaks and Geeks could have used at least another season though :(

[–]psy_ko[S] 4 points5 points ago

You know what would be super? The wedding album. If that's the grooms' dress, I sure hell wanna see what others wore!

My mother's dress was aquamarine in color....I'll see if I can find a photo. I emailed this to my dad and he immediately said the same thing I did!

With my body hair, it'd be a fucking disaster if I had to go pubes to tits with a zipper every time I needed to take a leak.

[–]dixiebuyer 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The back covers of my granddad's VFW magazine used to have these awesome pale blue jumpsuits/coveralls old men used to wear everywhere. They were a little more car mechanic looking than this but I always wanted to have one. (Kind of a cross between this as formal wear and cover ups that mechanics wear.)

Unfortunately, it's "SOLD - SOLD - SOLD" (1, 2)

[–]dadzilla 3 points4 points ago

I think you'd definitely need to use the stall, not the urinal, when sporting this to the bar scene.

Anyone else think he looks like Jemaine Clement from Flight of the Conchords?

[–]matsky 4 points5 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

As of 8 hours into the post:

  • 3 people thought he looked like their father;
  • 2 people thought he looked like Jermaine Clement;
  • 1 person thought he looked like Stephen King; and
  • 1 person thought he looked like Randy Savage.

Edit: Updated.

[–]AllDesperadoStation 1 point2 points ago

This is how clothing should be sold now.

[–]Azinine 1 point2 points ago

He kinda reminds me of Jermaine from Flight of the Conchords.

Wait, was there some sort of hair inducing chemical in the 70s propagating throughout the air? It seems every single person had an abundance of arm/chest hair naturally.

[–]L15t3r0f5m3g 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

The models/actors were hairy because hairy was "in" at the time. A strange time to live, indeed. Good thing I'm a child of the 80s.

[–]cadamr 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

There's a chest hair requirement that I don't meet. So no, I'm not man enough.

[–]Ermott 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Imagine having your hair caught in the zipper, and having at the same time to use the bathroom. The HORROR! The HORROR!

More proof that everything that happened in the 70s(e.g. Space Shuttle, Jimmy Carter) went horribly wrong.

[–]arktouros 1 point2 points ago

My friend actually owns a company that makes one piece suits! They're becoming surprisingly fashionable. Have a look (it's not to everyone's taste!) [OnePiece - "Jump in"]

I don't want to be that guy, but I have seen this twice this month. Its probably a mistake but it met my threshold for number of reposts.

[–][deleted] 2 points3 points ago*

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

If seeing something twice is your repost threshold you're on the wrong website.

[–]MOAR_KRABS 0 points1 point ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

This is the third time in one month that I have seen this on the front page. I don't search for reposts, but if I find one over and over again in a relatively short amount of time then I feel obligated to say something.

That said I really want this suit.

[–]wintersolstice -1 points0 points ago

My father totally had one of these in the 70s... along with a plaid suit.

I don't know if "man" enough is the right word.. probably another 3 letter word would be more appropriate.
