"has added a few inches to the standard T-shirt to put an end to an embarrassing problem that seems to plague plumbers."

T-shirts are not needed. These alternatives should do just fine:

- Go on a farking diet you wailing tub.
- Tighten up that belt moron.
- One word: Ass-o-suction.

I guess mixing in a salad once in awhile is out of the question in Wisconsin?

Of course, hot guys with nice bodies should get a short-tail t-shirt. Their ass cracks can be visible all they want, as far as I'm concerned.

I hope this company makes a gazillion bucks. They are offering a cool product at a resonable price. I am a big guy (not just in the gut, but all over) and when I have to buy a XXL shirt, I hate to have to pay an extra 40%. They are not racking people over the coals. Good for them.

We had those on hockey jerseys. They were called 'fighting straps.'

These will be handy for when a plumber gets caught in a stall without paper.

That's a great idea though. I could use one. Not just for the plumber's crack thing, but for the gut-guard capabilities too.

A cure for plumber's crack - don't look. Let the man do his job. You think he should have to safety pin his t-shirt tails together just for your sense of aesthetics. All for just $88 dollars an hour, plus travel time, plus going for more parts, if he shows up at all.
You people have no sympathy for the working man.

Let's see, Wisconsin is an agricultural state, but no, we never eat salads.

Dumbass.

9 out of 10 Farkers agree - Spackle.

Would've been 10 out of 10 but Proops just wants to be contradictory...

"We pride ourselves on solving problems."

While I agree the issue is certainly a problem, should they really be that proud of solving it? It's an extra long shirt, not a solution to global warming.

extra-long t-shirts? belts? suspenders? caulk?!?!?!

Why not just put on a pair of bib overalls?

Simple problem, simple solution.
