On a completely non-heat-related note, I went back to the SCOTTeVest web site yesterday and ordered another pair of the hidden cargo pants, plus a pair of their shorts. The pants are for work; the shorts, well, I need nice shorts.

Turns out the pants are Teflon coated. So are the shorts.

...

I own Teflon coated trousers.

duuude! That is so cool! Why are they Teflon coated? How? (hi, I am five^^)

it keeps liquids from seeping into the fabric and staining them.... and makes it easier to slide down handrails :)

Well, you are living in the 21st century and all--why not?

Ooooooooh! Teflon! The future is now!

This will come in handy if you ever need to cook on them.

They are suddenly worth the $70 now.

Yup!

And this is more than a little useful, with my boyfriend... *picks at stain on current pants*

okay. After your first post I was like 'oooh ... want'.

Now I'm even MORE wanting. Especially since it's damn hard for me to find decent shorts. And especially since I'm an absolute klutz and teflon coating would be my saviour I'm sure ...

now to see if they have decent sizes for big girls like me and plan for my next contract ...

They're guy-shaped trousers, fair warning. I'm not sure if they even make women's clothes. I just happen to be able to wear the ones that're 34 waist, 30 or 32 inch inseam.

Dunno how big the waists go up to.

yah, I saw that ... but when it comes to shorts, it's near impossible for me to find anything that works well in women's anyways (at least in current fashion, because lord forbid we make women's shorts that fit people with hips) so I tend to end with guy shorts. At least guy shorts are made with looser comfy legs vs. the bizarre women's bermuda shorts straight leg thing that's happening everywhere.

Thanks for the warning though :)

Odd. I've got Hips O' Doom and have had little problem finding shorts this summer (but then I'm shopping exclusively in the 'full-figured' sections, as I've recently ballooned out to a size 16/18, and even there, yeah, some styles are a bit narrow in the hip area).

[jjloa.livejournal.com]

Well, basically ... the places that in previous years have been my saviour on finding shorts that fit have gone gung-ho into this 'bermuda short' style this year. Which ends up with either clinging to the lower thigh problems or huge back of the waist gaps (actually - the few I tried on had both). And the mall that's easiest for me to get to (as current job has the other half taking the car many of my days off) doesn't have much selection on plus sized stuff. The one store I went into traumetized me with these extra-flowy shorts ....

I dunno. Even the few good pairs of shorts I've got still tend to gap a little at the back of the waist. that's why drawstrings (without being flowy shorts) made these shorts sound even more tempting.

This is where I put down a joke about slippery, slick pants and the dangers inherent therein.

Teflon pants?

[lpetrazickis.livejournal.com]

The easier to get you out of, my dear.^-^

[lpetrazickis.livejournal.com]

We have the technology. We can build you pants.:)

Waaaah. And here I am, stranded in Switzerland...

I wear men's trousers, to go to work. They are scotchguarded. This rocks. I can wear pale trousers without fearing lunch.
