To show that a character is in such dire financial straits that they literally "lost their shirt", the otherwise-naked character will resort to wearing a large barrel◊ usually held up by suspenders. This trope is primarily seen in cartoons. This image probably came from a punishment for public drunkenness in Germany and England, where drunks had to wear a booze barrel. It's unclear how this barrel-wearing became associated with bankruptcy (possibly because drunks tend to blow all their money on booze fairly quickly), but regardless the trope has stuck. That said, there are also instances where the barrel is simply Improvised Clothes in a Gone Swimming, Clothes Stolen or Naked People Trapped Outside scenario with no explicit connection to poverty. A Sub-Trope of Poverty for Comedy and Stock Costume Traits. May overlap with Barefoot Poverty. Compare Hobo Gloves, Pauper Patches, Shopping Cart of Homelessness, and Wallet Moths. Contrast Conspicuous Consumption. |

The 12th issue of Cartoon Cartoons featured a Sheep in the Big City story where Victor, the spokesman for Oxymoron products, sells a giant robot capable of capturing Sheep to General Specific. The problem with the robot is that it requires an assload of expensive upgrades and add-ons in order to actually work. Private Public at one point has to sell his clothes in order to keep affording the expensive upgrades and ends up wearing a barrel. | |

The Merrie Melodies cartoon "Hollywood Steps Out" features this trope near the end when Harpo Marx uses a slingshot to pop Sally Rand's balloon. She wasn't poor; it was for decency reasons (she was performing a nude bubble dance and the Hays Office would have banned the short outright if she was shown naked after the bubble popped. Plus, it's just funnier this way). | |

Dilbert: Appeared in one short arc. "Our new dress code is barrels." The impracticalities of wearing a giant stiff tube of wood are explored for comedy such as them sliding up when sitting down. An earlier Sunday Strip, "Business Language Explained," used an illustration of Dilbert and Wally wearing barrels to explain that "we have to be more competitive" means slashing salaries. |

In Disney's Magical Quest 3, playing as Donald Duck has him wear a barrel when using the armor costume. The cutscene for when the player first gets the costume justifies Donald wearing a barrel instead of a proper suit of armor by having the blacksmith state that Donald's rear is too big to fit the regular suit of armor and that Donald has to make do with something that would fit better. | |

In another one, Daffy was hunting a bear when an explosion made him lose his feathers. Fortunately he had them numbered for emergencies. Unfortunately, he only recovered the ones from the upper part of his body. The bear made a headdress from the others. Daffy put on a barrel and went after the bear when the game warden stopped him because hunting season was now closed. Daffy then announced they hadn't seen the end of him and started to leave, when a part of the barrel fell down, revealing "his end". Daffy doesn't seem to have noticed it. | |

Crystal is more focused on how badly the barrel clashes with Narcissa's skin tone than she is on Narcissa now being poor until she realizes this means that she and Draco won't have the money they need for their wedding. Eventually, Narcissa borrows more clothes from Trelawney and plays the barrel like a drum for the talent show. | |

A variant in Tiny Toon Adventures: How I Spent My Vacation; Dizzy Devil is afraid to spin because he's shedding, and doesn't want to end up naked. Eventually he does spin and lose his fur, and spends the rest of the movie wearing a cardboard box. He passes by some skaters, who think he's started a new trend and wear cardboard boxes of their own. At the end of the film, Dizzy's fur has grown back, so he stops wearing the box and the skaters think that the box look is now out of style. | |

The Donald Duck daily strip featured this trope in some strips. The June 7, 1941 strip has Donald pick up Daisy for a party while wearing a barrel. The August 30, 1947 strip has Donald notice a human woman in the water at the beach. Thinking she's naked, he rushes over to provide a barrel for her to wear, only to get hit on the head with the barrel when the woman turns out to have a swimsuit on that just wasn't visible above her shoulders. The October 10, 1947 strip had one of Donald's nephews coming home from school wearing a small barrel and looking embarrassed. The remaining panels show Donald going to the school with a ladder and retrieving the nephew's gym shorts from the top of a pole vault bar. Made even funnier when you realize that normally, the ducks never wear pants in the first place. |

Disney Ducks Comic Universe: "Barrel Bargains" has Donald bid for a barrel at an auction. He wins the auction but doesn't have the money to pay, so he puts his own sailor suit up for bid and storms off while wearing the barrel. The Danish story "A Stitch in Time" has Donald and his nephews Huey, Dewey and Louie discover a meteorite that turns out to have alien moths inside, which end up eating the clothes of everyone in Duckburg, forcing the denizens to start wearing barrels until they can find a way to get rid of the alien moths. One story has Uncle Scrooge and a foreign maharajah trying to outspend each other for the title of "Richest man in the world" by erecting magnificent statues. The contest ends when the maharajah runs out of money, and since he mortgaged his fancy robes for his projects, he ends up begging in the streets while wearing a barrel for clothes. |

There was a fairly popular early 1990s Dungeons & Dragons supplement called The Book of Marvelous Magic, which contained a cursed item called a Barrel of Poverty. The first person to look inside of it would have all of his personal items, including all clothing, weapons, armor, and even spell components, magically transported back to his home, wherever that was. The Barrel would then become non-magical, but would grow straps to allow the now naked adventurer to wear it to avoid embarrassment and because it was slightly better than no armor at all. | |

Chowder: In the episode The Birthday Suits, Chowder, Mung, Schnitzel and Truffles lose their fruit costumes after they shrink too much to fit. Now in their underwear, they stumble upon Gazpacho who is lamenting what to do with four empty barrels. Instead of going for this trope however, the gang takes Gazpacho's clothes, leaving him to still ponder how to use his barrels. | |

A Garfield and Friends episode depicting Garfield's take on the Arabian Nights had Jon playing the part of a young artisan with Garfield as "Alley Katta" in a town overrun by thieves. At the start, Jon went out to get a job with the Sultan declaring that "I have nothing left to lose" and, of course, ran back in the room a second later wearing a barrel. Garfield commented that "we'd better jump the story ahead before someone steals the barrel." (Jon got his clothes back in the next shot.) | |

In the 1920s Felix the Cat cartoon "Felix In the Swim", Felix and his friend, a young boy, go swimming together. Their clothes get eaten by a goat, so they have to go home in barrels. (This creates some Fridge Logic, since when they originally went in they were wearing swim trunks. And, wait a minute, Felix wasn't wearing any clothes in the first place...) | |

This trope was used several times on Histeria! "Attack of the Vikings" begins with Father Time wearing nothing but a barrel after some vikings run past him. Later, one of the Vikings' victims comments "They took everything but the shirt off my back", prompting a second pass leaving said target in nothing but a barrel. In "The Montezuma Show", the Incans seated at the ball game are left wearing barrels after the Kid Chorus win the game and take their belongings in accordance to the game's rules. The episode "The Thomas Jefferson Program" shows Betsy Ross (portrayed by the World's Oldest Woman) wearing a barrel after her bloomers are used to make the first American flag. Adam and Eve (portrayed by Father Time and the World's Oldest Woman) are shown wearing barrels in "Histeria Around the World I" during the musical number "People Wanted Pepper on Their Food". The sketch about the Great Depression in "Big Fat Baby Theater" depicts Miss Information, Bill Straitman, and a recurring background character resembling the farmer from the painting American Gothic wearing barrels. |

The Smurfs (1981): A debt collector once took all the furniture from Gargamel's house and left him nothing but a barrel to wear. When Gargamel protested about being left like that, he said he'd come back later to take the barrel. In another carton, some Smurfs wore barrels while waiting for Tailor Smurf to make new pants. (They had escaped Gargamel's glue trap by leaving them behind; why barrels instead of towels? It's funnier!) |
