We aren’t usually big on the idea of the illicit smuggling of goods into clubs or sporting venues but we feel it is our duty to inform you of a jacket which turns you into a walking drinks cabinet. It used to be that if you wanted to beat the drinking ban or avoid paying big prices you had to employ a creative use of headwear or a false heel on one of your shoes. However, life is going to get a lot easier for you from now on. This is because the skateboarding gear manufacturer Enjoi has come up with a jacket which lets you surreptitiously...

We are big fans of the kind of cutting edge gadgets which make you look incredibly cool and which cause members of the opposite sex to mop their fevered brow before swooning at your feet. However, we also have to confess to having more than a passing interest in devices which you can use while wearing fluffy slippers and drinking a steaming mug of cocoa. Hey, it’s all about the diversity, man. Anyway, if you like to enjoy a rocking motion and the odd homemade woolly hat then by Jove have we got the gadget which will make you drop your...
So, you are a kind of famous celebrity and you like nice dresses but, hey, you like Twitter as well. It seems that this can only end in one way. That’s right; an LED filled dress which displays tweets on it. The 34 year old X Factor judge Nicole Scherzinger – who was once a Pussycat Doll, we believe – turned up at the London Battersea Station with her unique dress on at an Everything Everywhere 4G launch. The bash was to celebrate a new, faster internet connection but the lady with the flashing dress stole the show. Lights, Crystals...
Let’s face it; we have all bought a regrettable tie at one point in our lives. Whether it had a picture of a cartoon character on it, was designed to look like a giant lobster or simply was made up of awful colours it is easy to fall in to the trap of buying something you never use more than once. Ah, but that is the least of your worries, isn’t it? Quite apart from the elegance (or not) of said neckwear you also have to try and tie the blooming thing in a reasonable looking knot and then avoid it flapping around wildly once you get...
Have you ever wandered the streets wondering how to get home? This has probably happened to all of us at some point and you certainly don’t need to feel ashamed about it. Of course, when you are in your car your trusty old GPS gets you to your destination every time, but what about when you are out walking in your shoes? Are you thinking what we are thinking? That’s right, Dominic Wilcox has come up with the solution which someone should really have created years ago; GPS shoes. If you want a mixture of elegant footwear and reliable...
We’re huge fans of gadgets which aid loafing on the job, you may remember the epic Ostrich head pillow for example. Today we found a neck tie which inflates to become a portable pillow via a friend on Facebook and just had to check out the official website. Pillow tie, as it’s literally known, is a regular shaped neck tie which is made of a micro fibre and silk material. This comes in all the colours of the rainbow and you can even opt for a stripy design if you like that sort of thing. A sealed inner tube runs the length of...
We’ve seen products that mix the latest tech with fashion and there are a few music gadgets that are incorporated in T-shirts. Not so long ago, I’ve heard news about a playable guitar shirt that has a mini speaker and plays notes when you strum it, and an electronic synthesizer shirt that does the same thing. This seems like a quirky idea, but since there are lots of instruments out there, why not drums? Now, geeky item shop ThinkGeek has featured a new design that places a drum machine on a shirt, enabling you to play your...
Mountain Hardwear produces some very advanced outdoor clothing with the latest weather-cheating technology. It even has a timeline charting its various innovations throughout the years. They have a wide selection of jackets on offer and it is the clever design of each that make them noteworthy. For example, the Refugium features a removable powderskirt and is coated with a special laminate called ‘Conduit’ which is resistant to scrapes, scratches and rubs that it will inevitably sustain during its lifetime. The most impressive...
