Shower In Your Suit To Conserve Money and Resources

This weekend's Financial Times of London featured a creative suit cleaning solution for the laziest suit wearers among us. The Shower Clean Suit by Japanese fashion company Konaka is designed to be cleaned, as the name implies, in the shower.

Dry cleaning itself, is not such a clean industry. The dry cleaning process uses perchloroethylene, hydrocarbons and silicone all of which are known carcinogens. Even with greener, healthier dry cleaning alternatives, the Shower Clean Suit enables a more effective process: wash yourself while you wash your suit.

For an upfront cost of $450 you can cop your own Shower Clean Suit, which will undoubtedly pay for itself in 2 years (guesstimate) in saved dry cleaning expenses.
