Fans Conflicted About Stanley Tumbler-Inspired Halloween Costume: 'Don't Show My Kid'
Shoppers are conflicted over an interesting Halloween costume making its rounds on social media.
Inspired by the fan-favorite Stanley Quencher H2.0 Flowstate tumbler, the outfit allows one to dress up as a large cup, complete with a handle and oversized straw.
The item, sold by Spirit Halloween, has taken advantage of the current craze surrounding the kitchen item. Shoppers, however, seem conflicted about the costume, taking to social media to express their thoughts.
In a Reddit thread shared last month, a photo of the hot pink-colored costume was revealed alongside the caption, "Whose kid wants to be a Stanley cup for halloween?" people shamelessly chimed in on the outfit sold by the retailer.
"Some of their choices are mind boggling," one wrote, as another agreed, "Spirit’s idea of costume design is just picking random items out of a hat and hoping it sells."
"Finally you can know how it feels to be highly desired & sought after!" another commenter joked.
Others, though, reasoned that the costume would be a hot commodity, with one mentioning, "You’ll be surprised some kids have really odd and specific niches. I’ve seen little kids dressed as pieces of furniture for Halloween."
Another echoed that sentiment, adding in their personal experience: "All of the kids. I teach kids, they are OBSESSED with Stanley, Stanley accessories, keychains, snack add ons. They all have Stanley’s! And the kindergarteners can’t even hold them they’re too heavy."
"Don’t show my kid, he’d absolutely want this," a third admitted.
Children aside, even an adult was forced to confess they'd wear the costume, as they responded to the social media post's caption with, "Raises hand shamefully."
Meanwhile, for those who'd prefer to just drink out of a Stanley tumbler, as opposed to dressing as one, the brand recently unveiled a new glow-in-the-dark design just in time for the spooky holiday that fans say "looks so cool."
