    Great gift

    My daughter loved it and so happy to finally get this. She thinks it’s so funny and has tons of jokes and thinks everyone should get this. Transaction went smoothly and was shipped fast.

    Great White Elephant but NOT instant

    I bought these for a Christmas party as part of my white elephant gift. When the gift was opened, they were so excited about the underwear, we decided to try them right away. So, we followed the instructions and put them in water and let them sit a few minutes… could not get them apart. So, we let them sit a few more minutes while we all enjoyed each other’s company and discussed how excited we were about this underwear. Still they would not come apart. We ended up leaving them soak for over 30 minutes before they would come apart. The wait was well worth it because they are hilarious but it is very false advertising to say they are instant. Patience is key with this gift.

    Fast delivery and great price for a great gag gift.

    I got 4 of these as a gag gift for family. I received them within a few days of ordering and they look exactly as advertised. I can’t imagine any actual use for them as no one would want to wear wet underpants, but I suppose it would be better than messy underpants if you ate some bad food and had an accident down under.Either way I am very glad this is an actual thing and can’t wait till Christmas to see the looks on the faces of those I give them to.Super reasonable price and fast delivery. I am very pleased with my purchase.

    Might need a hair dryer!

    Our biggest question was how long it would take these to dry after expanded them with water. We didn’t test it out though.In all serious though – these are a great gift for a college bound kid. We got lots and lots of laughs! 🙂

    fantASStic

    when i purchased these i was not sure they would be useful, however today i soiled my underpants at work and was so prepared! i went to the bathroom and put these in water, and after the five long minutes of standing pant less in my office bathroom, and a few weird glances from my boss, i put them on and my life was changed! so convenient and they definitely have a nice boost for your caboose! 10/10 sexy and functional!

    Kind of lame

    You get a white disc in a metal can. You take out the disk and put it in water. It’s a funny gift to open, but it really doesn’t work that well. It takes a long time to absorb enough water to make the disc open into pants. You have to kind of help it by pulling it apart. Took around 45 minutes. By that time, everybody had lost interest, especially the children. I wouldn’t buy it again.

    This was a fun gift to give my son

    This was a fun gift to give my son. He loved them and often carries around the tin in his pocket just for fun. Of course, it makes people laugh to think that in order to have replacement underwear, you have to get it soaking wet and then wait for them to dry, but hey if you don’t mind waiting, it’s nice to know you always have a pair of underwear in case of emergency.

    Complete waste of money

    Bought 10 as a party favor and tried to use at the party. Tried them all and not one worked. Tried all variations of water temperature and volume. 100% did not change shape. A complete CON.

    Don’t take them too seriously!

    Honestly, I read all the reviews, and ordered these as a gift nonethe less. These are meant to be taken as a joke, as opposed something serious. I bought them for a close friend of mine and am expecting quite a laugh on chistmas morning; you are getting what you paid for, a cheep five dollar pair of underwear in a tin. It will be fun, I am overall satisfied.

    Good for a gag but not instant

    The fun was watching this gift opened. The instant underpants took hours to open up. When they were out on, they ripped because they are paper thin. But a fun gag gift.

    Instant, apart from the need for water and something to dry them on, a Piss Heads dream.

    Just received a request from Amazon to review The Archie McPhee Instant Underpants I bought at Christmas, here goes, I wonder if they will publish ?”Following a night out and several beers and a trip to my local curry house, I suddenly found myself suffering from a desperate case of the Dheli Belly, Bombay Bum ,call it what you want. Some may have been distressed at this situation but I had Archie Mcphees’s instant underpants to rescue the situation. So I thought, I opened up the little tin, looked inside and thought that’s never going to fit. It took me some time to read the instructions due to my double vision, but I eventually worked out I need to add water, has Archie Mchpee ever seen the state of the sink on New Years Eve at Mr Pritpals Curry House, I assume he has not ! Undeterred I cleaned out the sink used a little toilet roll to block up the plug hole and half filled the sink. I dropped in the instant underpants and watched them come apart, it was a miracle and 2016 was looking like it was going to happen. I pulled them out the sink and wrung them out. This was the second problem I had with this product, firstly I needed water and now I needed to dry them out because they were soaking wet. Undeterred I proceeded to push one of the legs onto the nozzle if the hot air hand dryer and switched it on while holding the other two holes closed and inflating them like a hot air ballon. By now the hammering on the outside of the door of the toilets of Mr Pritpals Curry house was quite loud, it seems I was not alone in my earlier desperate need to evacuate my lower bowl. Even so I ignored their agonising cries to use the loo and continued to dry my pants. 15 minutes later they were dry, I put them on, they were rather on the tight side (I can only assume I bought a pair destined for the Asian market) but I strode out full of pride feeling sharp and able to continue my new year celebrations.

    Excellent, great backup option for filled undies.

    What did I like or dislike? What did I use the product for? Great questions Amazon! Well first things first, I like that I can carry this little undie backup kit anywhere. Tremendous! It was always awkward when people would ask about the spare undies in my back pocket. Now they just think I’ve got a can of chew. That more or less answers what I use them for. From time to time a guy gets to the toilet a bit late and needs a backup. Now what I don’t like, they don’t hold up well to washings. Very disappointing. Now I order these a case at a time! Think about it!

    Great for a gag gift.

    I put this in my son’s stocking. He got a huge kick out of them. He immediately put them in water and put them on over his jeans. I wish I knew how to post a picture because it was hilarious. The underwear is not paper thin but I don’t think they could really be used for underwear. It was meant as a gag gift and it was very successful.

    Exploding Underpants

    I got this as a gag Valentine’s gift for a coworker and while I am hysterically laughing at the outcome, it was a bit more dangerous than I thought it would be. He put it in the kitchen sink and started out recording, but it didnt do anything so he gave up on it and went in the other room and sat down. As he questioned what would happened next, he heard an explosion from the other room equivalent to one of those party poppers, he said it almost sounded like a gunshot, and he just kind of froze for a moment before getting up to slowly peer his head around the corner to the kitchen. He cautiously approached the sink and saw the white puck still there with a hole blown out of the center, then noticed water droplets falling from the ceiling causing him to look up and discover pieces of his underpants hanging from the ceiling. He described the smell as sort of like a febreeze air spray, mixed with pine and something else unpleasant and at that moment his smoke detector went off so he grabbed the closest fan-like object he could which were paper plates and began jumping up and down toward his high ceilings in his evening robe and husky slippers attempting to fan the smoke. He said it dissipated fairly quickly, but after the alarm stopped going off he heard two dogs yapping and barking, and his neighbor from across the hall yelling to her husband that their dog wouldn’t stop pooping. I expected them to turn into soggy underwear or just fall apart, but in no way expected an explosion. 4 stars because that was the best thing I have ever heard but it lost a star for the unexpected danger!

    They came in clutch

    This really came in clutch the other day when I absolutely destroyed my trousers in the frozen food section of Walmart. I was in a state of absolute panic when I remembered that I had my emergency wet and wear underpants. These babies were a lifesaver in the Walmart lavatories. My only negative would be that after you wet them to expand them they stay wet so I did develop some a serious rash since I was only half done with the shopping I for darn sure was not going to go home empty handed.

    Great Gag Gift!

    Great gag gift, but it took awhile to get it opened. It doesn’t open itself up in water like I would have expected. After it was sitting in water we had to peel it open. Everyone still had a great laugh!

    Best instant underpants ever!

    I’ve tried so many instant underpants I can’t even remember how many but these are the best! Carrying regular underpants is bulky and inconvenient. These look like you have a can of dip in your pocket so no on is the wiser that you’re simply prepared for the worst. I’m not worried one bit about the trust worthiness of the next fart and I give all the credit to Archie McPhee and his magnificent product. Let ‘em rip people!

    Makes for a hilarious white elephant gift.

    This is a small tin can – probably about the size of a can of tobacco chew – and inside it is a pair of white underwear that look something like unisex hospital undies, compressed into a tiny white hockey puck. They were a really funny gift to give for our annual white elephant gift exchange on Christmas eve. I don’t know how they actually hold up as a real wearable item, or why you’d want to use them once dipped in the water and wet, but any recipient would at least be laughing about it long before realizing that they are mostly useless. Actually, I’m not even sure why you have to “just add water,” because the water didn’t really seem to do much. I originally thought they would expand out of their round shape like one of those sponge toys that grow in water, but in reality it was just the same white hockey puck that was doused in water. After finally getting them to open all the way up (it took a good ten minutes), they turned out to be large grandma undies made of a really thin material, that were proudly held aloft for all at the party to view (we were curious!).

    I thought this would be a funny gift. After leaving the product in water for days. It is in the same shape as it was when we received it. I was not expecting real underpants but some flimsy unwearable underpants.No directions.

    Funny but a chore

    We got these as a joke for my son’s stocking and they did NOT just absorb water and unfold. It took us a long time to peel them into a pair of whitey tighties. However, they are the kind of paper like underpants hospitals give out and they stretched to at least a 2X. My son thought they were hilarious

    I purchased this for a family member as a gag gift. They of course decided to add water and retrieve the underwear. However, the underwear have been sitting in water for a week and still haven’t expanded. Maybe they didn’t expect people to actually take out the underwear?
