Jul 24 2009Handerpants: Underpants For Your Hands
Handerpants are a real product and apparently people are willing to pay $12 for them. Amazing -- even in a recession some people can't get their fill of novelty underwear. Or booze. I'm gonna stick with booze. I CAN HAZ GLUG?
Are you really naked under those gloves? For Pete's sake, put on some Handerpants! These 95% cotton, 5% spandex, fingerless gloves have the look and feel of men's briefs. Slip them on underneath your gloves for extra warmth and protection from chafing! Wear them on their own as a vaguely inappropriate fashion statement! Hundreds of uses! Fits most adult hands.
Yeah, well what if I have child-sized hands? Should I stuff a sock in these too? NOT THAT I'VE EVER DONE THAT (I use an old sweatshirt).
Hit the jump for a fairly painful infomercial for the things.

Also, it looks like they're packaging these things in the same boxes used by McDonald's for their apple pies.

Good times. Remember when we could still use naughty words? Yah, me neither.
26. JJtoob - July 24, 2009 3:47 PM
Those remind me of Spongebob in briefs. Just wrong. What about hanxers? Boxers for your hands?

Don't forget to take off your handerpants when having sex!

@27
Assume you have balls.
31. Daisy - July 24, 2009 5:31 PM
FAKE!!!!
This is a complete photoshop job. You can tell its a fake because the shadow's are all wrong.
This is exactly like that scene in the movie Never Back Down where Max asked Baja if she ever heard of the guy with 5 penises, she hadn't and Max explained his underwear fit like a glove.
32. Ubu7 - July 24, 2009 5:59 PM
Also "handy" if you're 2.5 feet tall and have three penis's. (penii?)
33. donna - July 24, 2009 6:21 PM
