I got a kick out of the seller’s description of this sweater on eBay.
“I’m not even sure where to begin the description of this sweater. It’s a nubby off-white acrylic knit, and was apparently made for either a Yeti, or a knuckle-dragging caveman. The sleeves hang way down past the bottom of the sweater. If you have hands that hang down to your ankles, this is a once-in-a-lifetime chance to get a sweater that actually fits you. For the record, I didn’t actually pick this sweater out, it was in with a ‘lot’ of clothing that I purchased. But, if you buy it from me, you will not be able to claim that you got this sweater by accident. You’ve been warned.”
The seller might be dubious, but we’ve seen some giant knits on the runway. I bet one you creative fashion bloggers could style this into a runway look. Buy it now for $22!
I have orangutan arms. I believe I’ve gone on record with that fact.
That description totally made my day.
jajajjaajajajja funny! jhajjjaja
Lol love the seller’s description. My bf has orangutan arms. I bring it up whenever possible.
I bet it would suit someone out there-it could always be used as a straight jacket-those arms all wrapped up would keep someone hostage for ages!
I’m nearly sold…. if it was in black or grey…. I’d be there in an instant…
$22 !! it looks like it’s made for someone who has arms below their armpits!
This pollover is perfect for people who don’t want to wear gloves for wintertime – the hands are always warm. I’ve seen such an styling at stilinberlin.com – Wendy, your idea of promoting this pullover is fabulous!
crazy sweater!
if this would remotely fit me I would totally rock the orangutan sleeves!
Hilarious! However, you’re right, I’m sure this could look amazing with the right accessories and some height. I like the texture of it.
Too funny.
Sweater deprecation is THE hot way to sell clothes.
I think it’d look good on me since I’m a knuckle-dragging caveman.
It reminds me of a sweater that Bill Cosby might wear. Yet, I fear he might get Jello pudding on the sleeves.
I was trying on a jacket at a trade show once, and I complained that the length of the arms was too short. The vendor told me it wasn’t the jacket, but my freakish gorilla arms. Maybe this is the sweater for me.
love the description
wierd i know, but my boyfriend was looking for a jumper kind of like this…. i have forwarded him the link.
he’ll probably hate it, but i hope not. would be hilarious.
he’s 6’5 and pretty lanky, so if anyone can pull this off it’s probably him.
watch this space…
Poppy, I hope he goes for it!
That must be the most honest eBay seller ever!
