The Caperon by Betabrand is a Cape-Apron Hybrid for Epic Grillmasters
Marissa Brassfield — June 3, 2011 — Pop Culture
The Caperon by Betabrand is the ultimate accessory for epic grillmasters. The cape-apron hybrid is cut out of a star-spangled fabric; according to Betabrand, it's "worthy of a 21-tong salute" and "will make terrorists think twice before targeting your next pig roast." That's heavy stuff.
Last week's Memorial Day holiday officially rang in the grilling season, and Father's Day is just around the corner. The Caperon by Betabrand would be the perfect gift for the resident grillmaster in any household -- bonus points if the recipient is also a fan of comic books, America and superheroes.
My favorite aspect of the star-covered Caperon is the collar that separates cape from apron. I can't help but wonder whether the way to wear the Caperon will be with the collar popped or kept down.
