The Bottom Line

Whether or not the Candy Man can or can’t is dependent upon your waist size. California Exotics states that “one size fits most” but that’s not true. Just the same, if you can squeeze into this and give your woman or others a thrill, go for it!

extremely useful review
Men, do you want to dress up for Halloween? Liven up that Holiday party? Volunteer at a local hospital as a candy striper (or stripper)? If so, the Party Time Candy Man thong may be for you. California Exotic's “playful costume” for men “includes a sexy bow tie and an easy release thong” that features a festive red and white pinstripe pattern. The only problem is that the manufacturer claims that “one size fits most.” Unfortunately that’s not quite true as a little bit of additional clarification is in order - the maximum waist size this will fit is 34 inches. I suspect that even Borat would have to pass on this one!

Material / Texture

An astute haberdasher will notice that this “costume” (made in China) is constructed from the finest “polyester, elastic, cotton, nylon, polyamide, spandex, and the hooks are made from ABS.” Unless there is a need to be concerned about allergies to polyamide or the other fabrics used, this garment should do the job. Men who dislike polyester because it can get too hot (with regard to temperature and not states of arousal), may want to consider something a bit cooler. The matching bow tie is made from the same material and is fastened around your neck by a loop of elastic: there is no way to adjust the elastic so you don’t have to worry about clipping it to your neck (ouch!) or tying your own.

Shape / Design / Size / Fit

In addition to the convenient pouch in the front and the well . . .umm . . .backside (or bottom line) of the thong, it will fit waist sizes between 20 to 34 inches (yes, I measured it) and will not fit men larger than that. According to the Centers for Disease Control, the average American man’s waist size is 39.7 inches – guess that means that "one size really doesn’t fit most." The Candy Man also features two ABS (plastic) clips on each side of the waist band that permits an easy way to disrobe at that special moment.

Care and Maintenance

The Candy Man is designed to be hand washed in cold water and should be kept out of your regular laundry. I would not recommend taking this to the dry cleaners unless you are on good terms with the owner. The austere design of the Candy Man is very green! If all men’s clothing were designed in the same fashion, the world would use a lot less water and soap, very few polyesters or elastics would killed in the manufacturing process, and I doubt that the factory had many scraps!

Packaging

The Candy Man comes in a plastic envelope that is about as discreet as the thong featuring a young, body fat challenged guy – similar to models on underwear packages at the local Walmart except that this Candy Man is wearing a dapper bow tie.

One very notable item on the packaging is that a URL is provided so that the Candy Man can be registered although I doubt that tech support is provided. Fortunately, the Candy Man requires very little instruction.
Experience
Overall, the Candy Man may be fun for those that can squeeze into it and their partners. Enjoy!
Follow-up commentary
Although I was not particularly fond of this product to begin with (I'm really not into thongs), it was a fun review to write just the same. Now that some time has passed since I first reviewed it, I haven't used it at all - I don't even know where it is but it's not missed. Perhaps the cat found it . . .
