My grandpa liked wearing coveralls, which is what I thought was the adult onesie that you’d actually wear out of the house (i.e. not pajamas). After he stopped teaching math at the school due to his tremor, he became a janitor, and he just really liked the uniform, so he had a closet full of them even after he retired.
So, to me at least, they don’t look bad.
As for the PJs—they look comfy, and make me think you’d be a fun person who isn’t afraid to look childish.
It is if you don’t want to be jeered at.
Isn’t that a romper?
It is definitely a romper.
OP, what’s the upside of onesie shorts? Not having to pick out a shirt to go with a pair of shorts?
Isn’t this pretty common in women’s fashion? It seems like the designers on Project Runway are constantly making rompers and jumpsuits.
The third picture along at the bottom looks pretty good.
I was thinking of this sort of onesie when I saw the title:
How do you stop all that linen creasing?
You roll around in your bed before heading out so it all looks uniformly crumpled.
Linen creases.
More men should wear linen, then they wouldn’t want the office at Arctic temperatures in June.
Towelling is even better. I’m just trying to do my part to end the war between the sexes.

If that’s the case, why are you mucking about with mass-manufactured clothing? That’s so gauche. Bespoke clothing is the way to go. You haven’t lived until you’ve worn boxer briefs tailored to fit your boys and hand-knit by nuns at a little abbey in the Bordeaux region.
Ah yes, the Order of the Sisters of Scrotal Comfort.
In case your mind is going there, of course the nuns don’t actually do the measuring and tailoring. That’s what the tradesmen on Savile Row are for. The nuns are cloistered and just produce the fabric.
Every so often I’ll be figuring out an estimate for a client at work and they’ll say, “price isn’t a concern”. I’ll add 1,000,000.00 to the previous $298.00 and ask for their signature. The point being, for most people money is a concern at some level.
Well, yes, of course. When people say “price isn’t a concern”, what they mean is “for the general range of prices for this type of item, I’m comfortable paying at or near top-of-range.” You’re welcome.
$600 doesn’t really matter to me.
For me, even if something is well within my casual spending level, I don’t want to overpay for it. If I can easily find something similar for a fraction of the price and the seller can’t credibly explain the difference - I assume that I’m being cheated and while money might not be an object at a price point, being swindled definitely is.
It’s eleven years old and behind the New York Times paywall but this article is interesting. It talks about a pair of men’s khaki trousers by the brand Band of Outsiders and why they cost $550. Two yards of fabric at $27 (including import fees), four hours of domestic union labor at $13 an hour, and the manufacturing cost is up to $110. Double that for the wholesale price, and multiply by 2.5 times for the retail markup and the trousers cost the consumer $550. I wear khaki trousers that cost a tenth of that.
