It is with a heavy heart that onesies have been talked about in my household. Can they ever be right? I fear not!

Thinking of suggesting onesies for this year's club fancy dress Christmas ride.

My daughter loves hers.

She's four.

That is righteous onesie love.

Used to be called overalls. Onesies look ridiculous

Duncan Bannatyne reckoned they were his best investment on Dragon's Den! I think not...

I'm definitely out!

I have a few pairs. Rarely wear them outside the house but they're beyond awesome for telly watching.

There were grown ups* wandering around the campsite at Beddgelert in onsies last month. I dread to think how prevalent they must have been down at Shell island 🙂

*Probably scoucers 😉

Have two, both plain coloured (one black, one grey) fleece. They're fantastic under a drysuit for winter kayaking.

Wouldn't be seen dead walking around the streets or even the house in one, though.

Jesus MTG, even the dog won't look at you. 😀
And you've laddered your tights.

Imagine if you died in the night and people found you wearing that?
Is that how you want to be remembered, as a vaguely intimidating pink gimp?

My youngest has covered his with Slipknot and Black Veil Brides badges, I kind of like the subversion.
MTG that's just wrong in so many ways.

My wife said she wanted one as she posted our daughter into hers. I managed to find her a stunning bright yellow fleece onesie which she got for her birthday from our daughter. Wen she put it on there was 10 minutes of raucous laughter when we found the arseflap (tm) - it had a zipped bum flap for, we assume, going for a dump or being taken from behind, perhaps. Anyway, cough, it's special. And she lost a bet and had to wear it to he supermarket. Of course she met loads of people she knew.

When we were renting a cold house, my Mrs used to wear my "wooly bear" diving undersuits to watch telly. Predated onesies by quite some time.

I have one covered in union jacks that I bought for a fancy dress night out. I plan on making full use of it when proper winter hits, they're warm!

Yeah, round the house why not? Probably save a few quid on the heating too. At the supermarket? Well as houns says, can be a bit chavvy depending on the wearer but on the whole,like pyjamas, no.

If you are a middle age man walking round Sainsburys in Leigh on Monday afternoon wearing a grey onsie then best not.

My Daughters love theirs - but they are aged 6 and 2.

I'd look like a tellytubby if I wore one, so not for me.

As others have said - fine if you are a chav.

i bet that's scratchy

i'm sure they're brilliant if you're still in nappies.
once you can dress yourself, i say they're daft.
edit: especially as they need to build in dump flaps. didn't anyone learn the mistake of 1980's onesies ski suits? Need to get completely undressed just for a wee... and have you seen the state of a french bog in a ski resort?

Sorry this has just finally pushed me over the edge (no I haven't tripped over the tit from U2) I'm afraid the human race is doomed and shall now plan my own self demise in comedy way and post it on you tube....as a protest against people being so ......... stupid. Goodbye cruel world.

P.s. bikes will be sold and all funds given to extremist anti onesie brigade to fund the burning at the stake of all wearers over the age of 10

There is no excuse for demeaning oneself with a onesie. Why you'll be wearing fleece lined crocs next...

My daughter (13) has 3, ones a nighwear only, ones a fluffy round the house, and the other is a pikachu.

I have caught my wife wearing the pikachu one. It was not as erotic as one might think.

And to think, I bought them both slankets....

I quite fancy one of them sleepingbag suits 🙂

The only thing wrong with fleece lined crocs is that the soles aren't grippy enough. Apart from that (well, and the fact that people look upon those who wear them with pity and derision), they're perfect. Onesies on adults, however, are probably wrong.

No, NO, and trice No.

No idea what they're about. Still, if people want to look like babies it's up to them.

Tell that to the monster in the green/orange one with "Forestry" across the back who walked past me in a Norwegian supermarket
Or the teenagers that literally ran across the shopping centre to look at the rail of them outside one shop....

As an owner and wearer of both a onesie and crocs I feel I should be bothered by the disparaging comments on this thread ..............

.......... strangely enough, I'm not, as they are both 'utility' items which do their job and I couldn't give a monkeys what the STW fashionistas think.

Ps I think mtg looks very fetching 😉

A onesie wearer, apathetic? Surely not! 🙂

Surely if he's that bothered he'd have got something interesting rather than a generic camo hoodie?

Crocs -- ideal bothy or multi-day footwear IME -- bungee to the bike rack, doesn't matter (much) if they get wet, weigh next to nothing, and the croc-a-like ones cost pennies.

onesies OTOH - out of the house especially - why?
