perfect for the Camino

[RJM]

Looks like they developed the perfect piece of clothing for walking the Camino. Should be the solution for pilgrims and potential pilgrims who come to this forum asking about what to wear, will it be too cold, what if it rains, what if it is hot, suppose it snows, what if I am hit by lightning etc.
My understanding is that the color of the garment was actually scientifically designed to repel bedbugs as well. A critter that receives a lot of text time on this forum.

Ah no...just no...

Might be a good conversation starter though, 'Excuse me, are you the first Alien to walk the Camino?'

 

[Theatregal]

In the beginning I thought Then I realized what day it was...April 1

'Excuse me, are you the first Alien to walk the Camino?'

Maybe he think he is .

Wish you well , Peter .

hey...don't be a spoiler too soon (and you call yourself "theatre" gal), ha ha
I was wondering how many fish would eat the bait.

What?! I meant...it's Easter True...I of all people should not give away the magic. This gave me such a great laugh this morning and I just know (April 1 or not), REI will get orders.

Guess I got 'spoofed.' But I'm glad that 'abomination' is just a joke and not a real thing. Gives me a little more hope that common sense is not completely dead.

 

[Turga]

I am definitely going to get me one -or two- ASAP. Man, will I look good in one of those..

Try to get one in red .

 

[Turga]

I would prefer the camouflage style, but of course with red socks

 

[Peter Fransiscus]

Yes , the red socks will do . Other whise it will be to much red .

 

[MinaKamina]

I plan to make my own clothes. This suit is so inspirational. All these zippers! Someone must have been very busy stitching those. And what's not to love when it comes to stitching zippers, and velcro too?

You may be laughing now, but give it 5 years and this will be the new normal.

OK , till 2023 than.

Wish you well , Peter.

 

[Camino Chrissy]

Yes, then he can even walk in the middle of the road and all passing vehicles will be sure to steer clear of him.

 

[MichelleElynHogan]

When will we see you in one of these, RJM? Oh, HAPPY EASTER and,

HAPPY APRIL FOOL'S DAY!!!

 

[trecile]

I especially like the faux jackelope fur.

Look up selk bag, Michelle. These exist and have been existing for a while.

Do not be fooled, REI has the future. They are testing it now.

 

[trecile]

I love the thought, creativity, and work that went into creating the ZipAll!

Hysterical!!!!

 

[pitztop]

No. Perhaps for some other people, but for me no. I was a bit tempted when the presenter was able to pack the suit into a case the size of a pill box, but even if this is not a joke - sorry NO.

 

[VNwalking]

OMG how did I miss this?

 

[domigee]

Yes , the red socks will do . Other whise it will be to much red .

And don't forget the badge!

 

[Peter Fransiscus]

And don't forget the badge!

Of cource .

 

[Turga]

Scrutinizing the design, it appears there is a serious flaw: While the suit features a fast mode to relieve yourself from the front, it doesn’t seem to have an equal quick-release option on the backside –if you know what I mean. Considering how pulpo and (too much and too bad) vino tinto can affect your intestines, this would be an additional feature, that could come in very handy.

Sent the video to my teacher from the sewing course. Am looking forward to her expert opinion...... should I try this?

Sorry my friend, but bedbugs are not repelled by color, though i must say, the color does repel me!
Buen Camino to you wearing this outfit...we will know you when we see you!

 

[Ballari]

Wow!
Ingenious!
How much do you think they will retail for?
Maybe Ivar can stock them for us

Been to sewing class this week and had a big chuckle about the video with the teacher. She started as a seamstress half a century ago, so she could tell me one or two things, and boy she did! The video becomes even funnier because of it.
Since I do not look forward to sitting on any zipper, I'm planning to make everyday trousers that I can shorten to capri's with a very visible zipper below the knee. The devil is as ever in the many details, for instance we must remember to keep the slider on the outside, and on the lower part that you zip off, else both sliders hit each other or they pinch you in the flesh when you walk. Once you are aware of it, it seems so obvious - the poor man in the video with all his ventilation has the sliders on the inside of his legs and arms .... have pity and never believe that these glamorous supermodels lead an easy life!

Thanks again for posting! a little fun can go a long way ....
