"I talked my friend into dressing up as Borat with his Mankini for a Halloween Party at a local Bar in our town. He was very hesitant when we first talked about it, but after showing him pictures and assuring him that he would for sure win, he agreed to dress up. We drank 2 fifths of Jager before he would get dressed and we kept it a surprise to the rest of our friends that were at my house. When we got to the bar, the bartenders had to discuss if his costume was "legal for the bar" and decided he was fine. He won first place in the contest which was $200 in cash. This small town is still talking about the "Borat Guy"."

"This thing was hilarious! I got it for a friend who said he'd wear it if someone bought it. He said it was definately too indecent to come out of his room with just the mankini on though! He ended up wearing flesh colered thin long underwear underneath and it was still GREAT!!"

Title: funny as heck Date: November 9, 2008
"this costume was hilarious. i read the other reviews carefully before i purchased it, and my personal experience, as far as sizing, is that i'm a stocky 5'4" male and this actually fit very nicely. however do to the costume its self you may need to make a few adjusments in the bottom half. and be forewarned that this does wear like a womens thong so it is a lil uncomforable but not too much. overall i loved it!"

"This costume was amazing. I must admitt one must really be crazy to wear this but when I finally had the courage to put it on and go to a party, everyone was laughing and asking me to take pictures with them ! I also got alot of compliments and people were asking me where I got it from. Apparently, I was wearing the best costume of the night !!"

"So when you come into the room in this outfit its quite a shock to everyone that is at the party. You will certainly be the life of the party in this. Nobody wants to look but they cannot take their eyes off you. Although it requires a decent amount of confidence it is certainly worth every penny. Wawaweewa."

Title: Worth the price in laughs Date: November 7, 2008
"My husband dressed as Borat this Halloween. For most of the night, he wore a dress suit...but once the kids had left the party and people were starting to get a little tipsy...he came running out in THIS suit. Everyone just about died laughing! This suit leaves nothing to the imagination: infact, b/c there is little or no elastic or spandex in the suit, it moves around a lot. A LOT. This is a great item to wear for just a little while to get some laughs and definatly completes the Borat look. But unless you are VERY confident with yourself and don't mind the inevitable indecent exposure, I would not reccomend wearing this thing all night ;)"

Title: Hit of the party!!!!! Date: October 27, 2008
"Everyone loved it! They couldn't believe that I actually wore it. It was a lot of fun and I had a good time wearing it. Got a lot of great compliments with it. I must confess it is a bit tight between the legs. I'm 6' so if you're much taller than that, it likely will be somewhat uncomfortable to wear. But if you're daring enough, you too can be the hit of the party!"

Title: Fun costume Date: October 17, 2008
"BUT it is made for a man. With that in mind I figured it would have a bit longer of a torso reach. It is a one size fits most. I bought it for my boyfriend who is 6'1" tall. I know he is a bit taller than the "average" man. It is a very very tight fit and when he put it on you could hear the stitching popping. It will be a one time wear costume for him. If your an average male with an average torso you will be able to wear it many times. It is a fun costume that definatly gets the attention of people and a good laugh. If your a shy person this is NOT a costume for you!"

Title: The Mankini Date: October 17, 2008
"It's a hilarious idea, but I ordered this for my boyfriend and we're going to have to make some serious modifications. It's way to big and he's about 5'8". The back of it bows way out away from his back and the front barely covers his parts. He says he normally wouldn't care about wearing something so revealing he just doesn't want to get arrested for indecent exposure. In any case, on top shortening it I'm going to have him wear some women's nylons underneath just to make sure we keep all his body parts in check:)"
