Southern Comfort’s Drinking Pants Are A Thing

Southern Comfort's drinking pants are apparently a thing.  We discussed this story on the air this week.  But, now I've actually seen them.  The brand we know and love for its whisky now offer the pants in time for holidays.  The news release indicates the pants are unisex trousers complete with a pocket to hold a shot glass!  Ok, I've heard of eating pants.  Those are the stretchy ones you put on before a big meal.  However, these are stretchy, and they have the words "drinking pants" emblazoned across the hiney.

Southern Comfort's drinking pants are also reversible.  They lovingly refer to the other side as the "fancy pants."  They say those are better suited for formal gatherings and Thanksgiving with the family.  Of course, that means that you'll probably be wearing the pants several times without washing them.  Most users merely turn them inside out.  So, now it's a party.  I can't imagine anything more appealing than someone in the same pants they've worn the whole week offering me a shot of tequila from their "shot pocket."  Pass the salt and lime!  But, good news...just like eating pants, these drinking pants come with a fully adjustable waistband so you can get your eat on!  The idea of these is either questionable or brilliant.  I guess we'll see when they hit the market.

Southern Comfort says they expect the pants to be available starting November 14 at 8 a.m. EST.  They are quite affordable at just $11.23.  The price marks Thanksgiving Eve, which falls on 11-23.  Surprisingly, this item isn't the craziest thing I've seen sold over the years.  So, maybe they'll become the hot item.
