Denim-look pajama bottoms - would you wear them?

When I first saw this ad I thought it was a SNL commercial spoof.

These things look like they belong in the back of the ads in the Sunday circular somewhere between personalized checks and collectible figurines.

I was reminded of the Cribsheet post on Denim Huggies and the mixed reviews back when those launched.

I forwarded the link on to my colleagues at work to get their reaction. Co-worker Judy, immediately typed back

"I. must. have. them."

Yes, she was serious. She bought two pairs. A pair for herself and a pair for her collegiate daughter.

She brought in a pair for show and tell last week (no she didn't wear them to work).

They are very dark wash and feel like a really thick felt.

I remain skeptical.

I asked her for an update on how they are working for her so far - but she has wrapped them up and put them under the tree as a special present for herself. So no reports on how they test drive yet. I'm also curious to find out what her daughter thinks of them.

I guess I'm just slow to discover these trends. Looks like they were already being talked about last spring on glamour.com see their Slaves to Fashion blog post here Jeggings Schmeggings: Meet Pajama Jeans.

Okay - so, would you wear denim look pj bottoms or are they this year's Snuggie ?

What do you think - genius or punchline? ( Don't worry, I won't tell co-worker, Judy)
