Tzitzit with no corners

this is just too weird! Tzitzit in a snap!

an online store selling tzitzit corners - tzitzit hanging from leather snaps for the belt. I can't tell if it is satire or serious. They think the normal tzitzit are connected to the belt loops, so this is a solution for the complications of using the belt loop. They have a beautiful leather crafted corner snap with the tzitzit attached.

I wonder if the blue strings are made from one of the various tchelet options, or if they are just dyed blue.

In the list of benefits, they say it is good for teens, women and executives.

they say they have seen many begn to keep the mitzva as a result of these tzitzit. funnily enough, they are not keeping the mitzva by wearing these!

Besides for a variety of these tzitzit corners, the only other product on the website seems to be an attache case.

    Even a leather GARMENT is not kosher for the mitzvah of tzitzis.

    They should soon be strating selling payos clips for your hat. The payos come with the hat, yes? Like those Chinese ponytails?

    Look at their banner: Tzitzit-In-A-Snap™ Will Be Available at REVIVE 2015 at the HRN Tables

    Then look at the HRN website. I think this will answer your questions.

      JS beat me to it. If you lived in Jerusalem you'd see these all too often, worn by CHRISTIANS, who are on the bandwagon about Hebraicizing the cult, and otherwise latching onto the Jewish People.

      If you read the sales pitch...

      Until now, tzitzit have generally been looped through the belt loop, a process which is somewhat time-consuming and inconvenient.

      ...that should be your first clue.

      Now click on the "What people are saying" link on the right hand edge of the page.

      There are plenty of Xian clues in the comments, which usually only Jews who are converts and used to be very religious Xians catch.

    If the attache case has square corners, and is used for holy purposes (like carrying money, or money equivalents like brokerage statements) it requires (these) tzititz. Especially if its faux leather (plastic).
