Heated bra this christmas in japan

New heated bra coming out in the market to help cut down on global warming;

http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/asi...ic/4420820.stm

"....A leading lingerie company has joined Japan's fight against high fuel use, unveiling a heated bra for winter.

The fluffy creation contains special pads filled with an eco-friendly gel that can be easily heated in a microwave or with a hot water bottle.

The design also includes a furry boa designed to double as a winter scarf...."



Wouldn't mind one myself this christmas ...

Why just for the ladies? If you really want to be eco-friendly, come out with a whole line of clothing....I can think of one segment of the population in perhaps greater need of heated undergarmets... but that would be dirty while somehow this bra isn't...

Ladies, do they really get that cold?

On the contrary, they help to keep my chest warm!

The woman on that picture looks distressed. I hope there is some kind of regulator...

Thats what a sweater is for. I don't need a bra that heated really. Just another layer of clothes.

well though I am not a woman, I must say that a heated Bra does sound very comfortable.
I don't think I would like a Heated t-shirt or Polo. As Nana007 said, you just need another layer of clothes.


But then again I think its typical Japan to make all sorts of funny inventions and sell them

That is insane. That bra would make you look so bulky wearing it under clothes. The only benefit I can see would be that it would make it less "nipply" out, if you get my drift. Of course, that thick of a bra would make it less nipply anyway...

Well it helps people cover up the freezing nipple problem.

Maybe they should try invent something for us boys???................................Not that!!!!

Oh, those wacky Japanese!! That's a hoot and a half!


Can you imagine Dolly Parton ordering one of those things? A nuclear reactor would be needed to keep those puppies warm!

Well, if they have one in a J-cup i might try it, but usually Japanese bra sizes are too small for me. And anyhow it's just another gimmick to photograph a girl semi-naked as far as i can tell.

Boobs do not get cold much, i would prefer to wear a thick wooly jumper, it's too hard to heat the pouches and take off your jumper and put this bra on in the first place, once it gets cold again, you're in the same position, too much time to get cold in between, what a waste of energy.

Where is the penis-warmer? Surely we can get a pic of a scantily clad Japanese guy for us girlies! ;) haha j/k
