CHARPET (pronounced "char-
pet") A charpet is a word describing a very hairy chest. The term is derived from the combination of the
words "chest" and "carpet." Many charpets are revealed on the
beach or when men (typically) unbutton their shirts or wear t-shirts that are specifically cut to highlight the charpet feature. The hair must be so
thick as to look and feel much like a tighly weaved piece of carpet. Some charpets are so short and dense that they resemble a burber style carpet, while others sport much longer, looser hair that looks more like a shag carpet.
Other derivatives of this word include:
CHARPWHITE (pronouced "charp-
white") A Charpwhite is similar to a charpet, but the chest hair is
white in color. This look is often featured by other men, but has also been spotted on a rare breed of women.
