It's Monday. And if you're headed to any environment with four walls, a computer, and a semi-professional coworker or two, it means you're going to work. But why bother getting all dressed up for the beginning of the week? Who says "Dress for the job you want," anyway? Thanks to...

It's Monday. And if you're headed to any environment with four walls, a computer, and a semi-professional coworker or two, it means you're going to work.

But why bother getting all dressed up for the beginning of the week? Who says "Dress for the job you want," anyway? Thanks to BetaBrand's new Dress Pant Sweatpants, you can give up completely and let everyone know with a (saggy) ballsy fashion statement.

Dress Pant Sweatpants -- straight from the San Francisco brain trust that brought us the Vagisoft blanket -- are described, naturally, not just as a pair of pants, but as an experiment in sartorial subterfuge.

And for a cool $90 (around the same price you'd pay for a decent pair of pants -- and more, um, support), they're all yours.

Of course, that is if you have 90 bucks laying around after you were fired last week for spending all day adjusting your Facebook timeline and reading the new softcore literature from your buddies at AXE body spray.

Hey, maybe your girlfriend will front you the money. She was so impressed this morning when you said you were finally thinking about donating your pajama jeans.
