Then I got on my computer and actually saw them.
I give the designers some props for the catchy name, Romphim versus “rompher”, but I’m pretty sure no self respecting bro would actually wear this. So I checked with the broest bro I know, my husband. He is a surfer dude, sports loving, beer drinking, engineer. He said “What the f***?” So I asked if he knew any men who would wear it and he said “Maybe that metrosexual guy at church.” Which was impressive because I don’t think he has ever used the word “metrosexual” before.
These four fashionistas business partners jokers have managed to raise almost $300,000.00 on Kickstarter to get this thing off the ground. Who is pre-ordering these things? The only person who should be wearing anything remotely like this shorty jumpsuit for men are people about to be launched into space or those working on a hazmat team.
The creators even admit on their Kickstarter page that they developed this idea over drinks! Ya think?
I personally, don’t even like rompers for woman. Unless you’re very svelte, they are not flattering. Then there is the fact that you practically have to get naked to pee, a problem solved in the men’s version with a zip fly. That is the one positive thing I can say about this garment.
Would the men in your life wear the Romphim? Would you want them to?
