Clothing For Gadget Guys

Andru Edwards writes "In an article looking at the advancements in clothing for gear loving professionals, it becomes apparent that you no longer need to sacrifice your gadgets for style. SCOTTeVEST has recently released a sport jacket, khakis, and tie all specifically tailored with hidden pockets and compartments for businessmen who don't want to leave their tech at home. The clothing includes an integrated tunnel system which allows you to hide all the wires affiliated with your devices within the lining of the item, aptly dubbed the "Personal Area Network"."

    Besides the bulky (non-fitting) feel in these jackets as mentioned in the article, I would imagine it's going to be heavy carrying so many items with you.

    Maybe there's a reason why traditional clothing has fewer pockets, so that you are not obliged to bring everything out.

    And where's a TEC Dress for women? Or is the market for female already competitive enough with big handbags?

    Since when do the nerds/geeks worry about clothing style?

    Oh, I can certainly see how this would simplify my life. Picture this:
    1. Get Vest, Kahkis, Backpack.
    2. Hide mp3 player, digital camera connected to laptop in backpack, etc.
    3. Run wires for headphones and other gadgets.
    4. Go board plane.

    Absolutely...I have 5 pair of Docker mobile pants I wear on a daily basis. My Docker.conf

    Lower left: cell phone and reversible screwdriver

    Lower right: PDA

    Upper inside: pager on vibrate

    upper outside right: USB drive with emergency software kit

    Upper outside left: RF employee badge

    Other pockets: wallet, change, stupid pieces of paper people give me instead of using email.

    Docker stopped production due to inadequate sales. Their premier advertisement was terrible; I don't know which lamers they used as a control group. And, the geeks here on slashdot have no one but themselves to blame for the lack of sales. Go out and SPEND your massive paychecks at the local Dockers store!
