It's a Slankie!


The Snuggie is surely a great example of cult clothing.

Actually I'm not even sure if it is actually clothing.

But there is definitely a cult around the Snuggie.

Hell even Alec Baldwin and Steve Martin wore them during the Oscars telecast.

So what's better than a Snuggie?

How about a Slankie!

Half Snuuggie. Half tracksuit. Kinda.

And available now online.

Well you may laugh my friends. But if Bonds advertised this product I reckon they'd sell like hot cakes.

Hopefully they won't though.

Woodland fashion


I find fashion advertising baffling at the best of times.

But Bambi!?

What on earth was Stella thinking?

Music you can wear


Now here's a fresh idea. An idea so obvious you wonder why it hasn't been done before.

As we all know CD sales are in decline. Downloads are the way to go for the kids of today.

To capitalise on this Mos Def has just released his new album as a t-shirt.

Yes a t-shirt.

It features a print of the cover art on the front and the tracklisting on the back.

Attached to the t-shirt is a swingtag with a download code. How clever is that!

I suspect we'll be seeing a lot more of this kind of marketing idea in the future.
