Australia's Favourite Underwear Company
Breaks the Guinness Book of World Record

SYDNEY, Australia -- In an effort to secure a position in the Guinness World Records book, aussieBum will unveil what is believed to be the "World's Largest pair of men's underwear."

Measuring in at 15.5 metres wide and 11 metres high, with a waist circumference of 32 metres, the mammoth pair of undies is the size of the front of a three-story building. It includes 300 metres of fabric, 500 metres of wide-width elastic, 5000 metres of cotton and a 1.5 x 6 metre logo. The giant underpants weigh a whopping 180 kg.

The aussieBum World's Biggest Undies have been built with the help of aussieBum's long term business partner, Italian firm Eurojersey, a major name in the international textiles industry. Eurojersey put its faith into the project by generously donating 300 metres of Sensitive(R) fabric. The incredibly soft, light and easy-to-handle nature of the Sensitive(R) fabric helped aussieBum achieve this challenge.
