  Not that far. I’ve heard of pants that have seats built in. I don’t think it was ever sold, just a prototype someone made. Basically the back of the pants is firm and there’s a way to lock it into place to make a seat. I can’t imagine it would hold a lot of weight though.

  You can get expandable seats on Amazon (and the like) for around $30. They’re like the size of a Frisbee but they extend out to a seat that supports something like 350-400 pounds (or whatever that is in metric). You could probably fashion a strap and strap it to your back, so it would be easy to take down and deploy if you have to wait in line or something.

    I got one of those. It’s heavy-duty plastic and mine has a strap attached to throw over your shoulder. It’s pretty nice if you got somewhere with not a lot of seating.

    I’ve seen people with cushions that they’ve bought for them.

  There are already seats you can buy that just strap to the back of your legs, just search up “wearable chair”

  The future’s now!

  As someone with POTS, this sounds amazing.

  Depending on your definition of a couch, which I think is already a bit loose, they already exist.

  • Bike shorts, built in cushions, no structure though
  • Avalanche airbags, deployable cushions, built into a backpack, kinda like an inflatable couch? Not in pants though.

    I was just thinking of avalanche airbags. We have the technology!
