“Adult onesie” should go to the top of the “Most Glaring Oxymoron” list. Will you be pairing it with your combat booties? ---

I remember the solid blue ones snapped up the front. They were a thick twill and gave one a diaper butt. Then we had these stretchy polyester ones that you had to step through the neck hole to pull them up. Light blue on bottom and bl/ white stripes on top. More comfy and lightweight. Both were sleeveless. ---

What shoes to go wth? I suggest a mule, a slip on not quite a clog. No slides, chacos, tevas or fisherman sandals. Imo, ymmv. ---

WHAT? No, Crocs. Definitely Crocs. I still own a pair, they are/where right for some stuff, but perfect for a onesie. ---

> [@chela](#): > > I remember the solid blue ones snapped up the front. They were a thick twill and gave one a diaper butt. We had to wear these in Jr. High if we brought our polyester white shirts/blue shorts home to was and forgot to carry them back. Being 6 feet tall, I was a bit too tall for them and they were quite uncomfortable and very form fitting length-wise. But yeah, diaper butt on shorter girls. ---

I think I remember it was a nationwide student rebellion against those ill fitting uniforms that the girls got into shorts and a T. Finally! ---

I can’t help but think you’ll get a wedgie if you have to reach up high, like I did when I had to wear them for volleyball in 7th grade P.E.
