Superhero Inspired Aprons

Superman, Batman, Wonderwoman, Flash and Green lantern are you still familiar with these characters? I bet you do. These characters have been part of our childhood years. Actually, I grew up with Superman on my bedroom wall and Flash as my bed blanket. I even owned some of the characters action figure toys and my favourite one is Superman. (See image below)

 

Yesterday, when I was doing my studies over the internet to search for some Advance Geometry problem solving samples, I came across with this gorgeous looking girl posing at her kitchen wearing her superhero inspired the Wonderwoman custom apron (see the image below). 

Cute right? Suddenly, all the memories I had when I was child like adoring and mimicking my favourite superhero character are all coming back. Then, I started to realize that if that girl found an apron printed and designed with its favourite superhero character, Superman inspired apron perhaps also available. 

So, I started to search for it and luckily it’s available. I must have one!

Aside from Superman inspired apron I also found some of the member of Justice League custom aprons. (See the images below)

How about you? Who is your childhood superhero?

Vintage Aprons | Knowing the Past

Apron is really one of the most versatile clothing accessories that ever invented in history. Actually, you can find it anywhere. From your mother’s kitchen to professional career apron is there. But, did you ever wonder where this versatile accessory comes from? Like, who invented it, who wore it first, is it really made for women alone?

Way back in history, aprons are also part of men's dresses, men doing heavy works such as the blacksmith, leather smiths, metal forgers, cobblers, carvers, fish mongers and even the clock makers. (See images below) Such heavy and dirty works, sturdy apron was very useful for both protection and cleanliness. Aprons by then were made from thick heavy leather.

In 17th century when women start to wear aprons. Actually, by that time women who use aprons are the housemaids. The use of apron for them is to keep their dress clean because most housemaids by that time had only one everyday dress. And in 18th century, almost every woman has at least one apron. Regardless if you are a mother, housemaid or daughter, if you are a middle-class woman, you worn an apron. Aprons by then were a status quo. Wealthier women don’t wear aprons because they have slaves or servants to do the dirty works for them. 

So, going back to my question...when was really the apron seen and who was the first person used it? Based from what I've researched, the first apron was cited in Middle-Ages. But if you are familiar with the Bible, apron was stated there. The Bible says that Adam and Eve, after realizing they were naked," sewed fig leaves together and made themselves aprons." - Genesis 3:7 *KJV – Amazing right? Ever since the creation of man aprons have been around. That’s a wow right? Me too I was surprised.

Well, I know it’s not really the aprons we know today but still apron is apron a body covering that covers the front part of our body.

I must cut my story here now because if we dig into details about the history of aprons that would take me a day or two to write it here. I just cited here some of the facts that interest me about the history of aprons.

Naughty Aprons

Hello there! This is my first post. I suppose I must introduce myself, my name is Justin Tead, from Woodstock, Georgia. I am a business man. I love to eat, to travel, and most of all to surf the net to learn many things. Yes, you read it right I greatly enjoy surfing the net. I make my business here, some shopping, and to share my thoughts.

Why come up with Mr. Apron blog title? Well, it is my pet-name actually, most of my friends called me that way. Maybe because I love aprons though I’m not a chef in profession but I collect them. It started when my grandmother gave me one as a Christmas when I was 7. 

I can’t really explain why I collect aprons...I just got the feeling of achievement/fulfilment whenever I bought one or receive one as a gift.

For my first post allow me to start ... with aprons! These aprons are not the one you typically see in your mother’s kitchen.

So, enough said...please enjoy reading my blog!

These hilarious, sexy, and for adults only aprons are also known as novelty aprons. Perhaps, not the best cooking apron to wear when your kids are around or your mother-in-law is coming for lunch. But I may say that they are the best gift for birthdays and Christmas for your friends and for the one you love.
