WTF Friday: The Perfect Fit Button

Genius!

When I first saw this commercial (while drunk eating last Saturday at 4am) I was appalled.

“WTF?” I screamed, spitting a chunk of cheese onto my rug. “What kind of country do we live in where we need an invention to make our pants bigger to fit our fat asses?”

Then I realized I was talking to myself and, as I looked down at my own pants (that had left a deep red mark around my entire waist and were now unbuttoned as I sat on the floor housing a pizza), realized that maybe this isn’t so WTF after all. In fact, it might be the best invention for drunk-eating college kids since Facebook and Easy Mac!

I guess the only WTF thing about The Perfect Fit Button is that, WTF, why didn’t I think of this myself?

    It actually seems like a good invention. It makes pants tighter as well as looser, so it's not just a "fat" thing. And sometimes, hormones cause women to temporarily bloat, so fat isn't always the culprit behind an extra inch.

    This is a good idea, and wouldn't only benefit 'fat-asses.' I'm a very thin girl with a fairly enormous butt. Result? Pants tight in the ass, and too loose in the waist. This would let me tighten the waist without having to buy pants a size bigger. Reverse effect for girls with thicker waists and no butts who don't want to look 10 pounds heavier walking around with a muffin top.

    They've actually had these for a long time. I remember when I was like 5 my mom had something similar that did the same thing. I thought it was ingenious even then.

    It's pretty funny though… why can't we just be healthy instead? Or why can't they hide the extra button? It looks kinda… strange?

    Actually this is a total rip off of the original Instant Button http://www.instantbuttonforjeans.com that was invented by a mom of three. I purchased the Instant Button as well as this rip off version and Instant Button quality is much better. IMHO go for the original, http://www.instantbuttonforjeans.com. It does work for taking in a size as well as increasing a size especially during that time of the month when you feel bloated!

    I'm a big fan of the button.

    My waist size is in the 33-34 range, and most pants that I see at retailers jump from a 32 waist to a 36, leaving me the option of trying to squeeze into a 32 or buy something way too big and use a belt or risk them falling around my ankles.

    So, now I just buy the larger size, and use that button to take them in a couple of inches.

    Alright I gave in and bought a set on e-bay $5 free shipping so the price has come down…OK why hasnt anyone mentioned the biggest problem..The back of it that connects it to your pants sticks out like an inch. Its this horrible little sharp object sticking me in y belly the moment I sat down with it in place. Yes my pants buttoned much easier but it was freaking painfull.. Do not buy its a freaking joke unless your into that kind of pain.. Don't believe me than try it for yourself….If you are taking your pants down a size there might be some slack and it not directly poke you in the gut…..

Tell us what you're thinking...
