Does anybody know roughly how much it would cost to get a jump suit like the ones in this video, or where I could find one? Warning, the song is an ear worm.

No, I don't plan on consistently wearing this, I just think it'd be a funny costume next Halloween. Yes, I realize it is extremely premature and a little nuts to plan that far ahead.

I was completely unaware there was a video for that song. I guess I should have expected it, since there's a video for every song since the 80's.

As far as your query is concerned...I can't name prices, but if you have a Rural King or other such store nearby you should be able to get a Dickie's or Carhartt jumpsuit easily enough. As for the trim...can you sew? That'd be the only thing I could think of to get the trim on there, since most companies that make jumpsuits don't really make them for the aesthetic. :smalltongue:

I'd look at skydiving supply stores/ebay. I've got an old skydiving jumpsuit that's a similar material - though red (I'm planning on eventually doing a freakazoid costume with it). I got mine for free because my uncle was cleaning out his closet, so I can't help you on price.

You'd have to sew/tape/glue on the trim.

You evil.
Evil.
Evil person.
I didn't even look at the video, someone only just mentioned the NAME of the song.
Now I have it stuck in my head. :smallfurious:

Well luckily for me the video doesn't seem to work. Now for the jumpsuit, by itself it'd be...average jumpsuit price :smalltongue: but with the trim everyone mentions, that's custom territory and depending on whose dealing the price can go nowhere but up

Sportsy stores, $20-$60. You would probably be able to get it at a thrift store with only a little luck.


Heeeeey, Blue. I love that song :3

I like it too... weird that we snakey people seem to be the only ones.

I like the song, and I'm not a snake. I like snakes though. They're cool =3

apparantly "Blue" got to a hight of number 6 in the US charts in mid 1999

Oh, I LOVE the song. It just is annoyingly catchy, and get's annoying when it's stuck in your head for a week on end. After that happens, you cool to the song slightly.
