Shower Belt by Carl Hagerling, Claes Nellestam & Martin Prame
The effect of a full body shower is not only that of washing the dirt of your skin. A shower is also a ritual that offers the chance for relaxation and meditation. When in transit such a shower is rarely available. This forces most people to resort to dabbing their faces with wet wipes or soaked paper towels in order to achieve some degree of refreshment.
The shower belt offers the possibility of a more substantial cleansing that leaves the user as invigorated as he or she would be in any other shower. The end of the belt easily attaches to any faucet while the buckle acts as a shower nozzle. Practically any public restroom can be transformed into your own private space for washing and relaxing. Make use of the waiting time between transport to take a shower and feel fresh inside and out.

That is completely and entirely retarted. If you shower in the restroom, where does the water go? Onto the floor. Then some janitor will have to clean it up.
Plus, you wouldn’t get the right amount of pressure. You would be screwed. Even if you let the pressure build, it would only last about 1.5 seconds.
It is spelled “retarded,” retart.
i actually really like this idea, maybe not the MOST practical of things, but i have seen a good deal of public single-stall restrooms with a drain in the middle of the floor, and sometimes you just need to hose off –screw pressure. they never mentioned soap in the discription, you don’t need any pressure if there is no lye.
sounds like a great weird product that pleanty of weird people would buy reguardless of it’s practicality.
oh! and it looks fantastic!
