I may have commented often that Japan is the 'land of randomness' and this product is just the latest which confirms that statement. The character Doraemon is an icon in Japan, the series about the cute robot cat has been running weekly since 1978 so it is about time he had his own underwear. |
Unfortunately for UK collectors these particular boxers are only available as a prize in grabbing 'claw' machines in Tokyo which is a shame. Surely any fan would love to own a pair of these beauties? All the ladies love Doraemon so surely they would not mind the cute bizarre kitty emblazoned on you crotch? Ok, maybe not but I bet you still want them. If you were in an arcade in Japan would you not leap at the chance to grab these? Of course you would! You would then be wearing them with pride around the house, not caring if your neighbours saw you through the window. |

So enough about the fantastic randomness of these boxers - are they a decent pair or cheap and nasty? Well the material is surprisingly good considering the price (80% cotton and 20% polyester) and have an elasticised waist. Despite this though I still found them a little uncomfortable as they are pretty tight around the crotch. I could almost feel my fertility dropping whilst wearing them and could imagine them being Linford Christie's lounging gear. Around the waist they are fine but around the crotch proved a bit much for me, I wear boxer shorts because it gives more space - not restrict it! |

One other thing that may
attract the easily amused is that the picture of Doraemon on the
underwear is actually wearing boxing gloves! Hilarious! |
