So… I was watching one of my favorite channels – Shop Channel (It’s like QVC [they have it in Japan too] or Home Shopping Network in the U.S.). People are always working hard and I’ve seen quite a few awkward moments, it’s awesome, I kid you not! What’s the difference of Shop Channel and QVC Japan vs. QVC America? Here’s a quick breakdown.

- QVC America tries to sell you crap you’ll never use and takes calls from old people.
- Shop Channel and QVC Japan tries to sell THE CRAZIEST THINGS I’VE EVER SEEN!
The other day while watching Shop Channel I saw some younger woman wearing a gold moon suit looking plastic bag outfit, reading a book, and relaxing in a bath while sweating her balls off. I’m like WTF! So I took some ghetto pics of my TV and had my fiancee type the words out in Japanese and I hit up Google. Here are my ghetto pictures.
Here are some failed Google Translations:
- Big exercise and sweat bath water-soluble out from the sweat glands, sweat, urine and most of the same component
- After more than 30 km marathon run, sweat glands and milk served with sweat
Here are some details I was able to make out:
- It comes with 6 non slip pads
- I don’t know how long you wear it. I’m assuming 30 minutes in boiling water.
- A 30-km marathon puts out the same amount of sweat.
- You’ll lose 2kg of weight
- You can use the suit up to 10 times (sounds great, especially after you see the sweat bag pictures)
Now some professional pictures of the product.
And lastly, here’s a link so you can buy it directly from Shop Channel for 4,935 Â¥ RIGHT NOW! Or this other place… I think.

wow~ that’s the first time i ever heard of this. Japanese people are really very creative. It makes me think of steaming food. haha~ Any idea if it’s effective?
Dog! Urine out of my sweat? That is nasty for sure.
what a wacky idea. I’ll buy one if it really works though.
Does it work? I think if it really worked it would be sold everywhere.
That really is Japanese
another classic example of Japanese creativity but i am not sure about its working capabilities. one should wait to hear more on this before actually going for it.
Haha, those are illegal in the US for use in sporting competitions that utilize weight classes XD
thats absolutely disgusting. makes me think that someone was really drunk and had the genius idea to steam their fat off the same way a steam fresh rice bag works when you want to take the easy way out of doing something difficult. i like steamed rice in my microwave. not steaming flesh in my bathtub. via an airtight sweaty bag. gross.
Wow I’m in Christchurch New Zealand and heard how great they are
just wish I could read Japanese as really want to buy a couple
Can anyone send me two over?
Maybe it’s cheaper to use saran wrap?
Thank you very much for the nice post!
Men and woman always complain why they cannot lose weight or have great shape. The point is people keep searching for a magic pill that gives them what they really desire immediately meanwhile all they have to do is reading helpful posts like this and do the workout.
