09 March 2010 [17:50] - Today.Az
A company in Australia has launched pants made from bananas.
According to Reuters, AussieBum introduced the underwear as an eco-friendly alternative.
The pants are made from 27% banana fibre, 64% cotton and 9% lycra, the company's spokesperson Lloyd Jones said.
"Naturally you can't really add any more banana fibre than that because it might be a bit squishy," he added.
He explained that the banana fibre is made from a bark weave from the banana plant and revealed that it makes the underwear lightweight and absorbent.
Jones also emphasised that the pants do not smell of bananas.
