  3. Heat activated T Shirts

This Memory is looking a little short on nostalgia! Have you got anything you could add?

Can anyone remember these?? I think they were called Colour...something. The T shirts started off one colour - say blue and then when you got hot they changed to orange! Looked particularly lovely when you were feeling a bit sweaty!!

    i never owned any, but i remember they were popular for about a week in middle school. then people started to realize that it wasn't the best idea since it was rather warm, and people's armpits and crotches were always a different color.

    my boyf recently confessed he had a t shirt and some shorts that changed colour. The shorts weren't so good when you were feeling a bit windy as they would change colour on the "crack" area.

    What about 'Scratch N Sniff' T shirts, my friend had one with a huge strawberry on the front, and when you scratched the strawberry it smelled of....strawberries! I was so jealous...

    I had two of these...one t-shirt and another vest / tank-top thing. People kept coming up to me, twisting the material, breathing on it, leaving handprints, dropping icecubes down the back.... Horrendous. A sorry excuse to molest your classmates. I remember the TV ads had loads of mid-twenties people pretending to be teenagers dancing about and having fun because of the t-shirt. I remember being chased and nearly beaten up because somebody in the upper grades wanted my shirts. However, they are now achieving retro cool.... (If you believe that, I am Elvis).

    Black Global HyperColour T-shirts were all the rage in 1990. A friend had one and we used to leave hand prints in unusual places. They tried to come back into fashion this year but were rightly ignored.

    I can't remember what they were called (it's on the tip of my tongue), but I had a particularly fetching one from M&S that went from blue to purple. Less attractive on big sweaty people in the middle of summer admittedly.

Do you remember these?
