Professor Mordarm's Mad Ramblings

Cool Clothing, Geeks With Power & Five Dollar Deals.

Today’s ramble begins with one of my favorite geek gear products: ScotteVest.

If you have not heard of ScotteVest (or SeV for short) then you are missing out on one of the coolest clothing products out there for your tech gear. Now personally I have a tough time carrying all the gadgets and gear when I get out on my tech-cave now and then. Heavy laptop bags, belt pouches and tech backpacks made me look like, well, like an overloaded geek. Not to mention the pain it caused to my shoulders and back by carrying all that gear awkwardly.

Then I discovered SeV though my wanderings of Think Geek’s website. I saw that SeV has designed clothing that has an insane amount of pockets for your gear. And I mean like +22 pockets insane!

So enchanted on what I saw I ordered several of their products: The Travel Vest,
Evolution Jacket and the Cotton Hoodie.

And I just love it. Being able to carry all my stuff on one item, my clothing, instead of all that baggage is a great stress reliever. Now just to give you an idea on what I used to carry in my laptop/tech bags and instead carry in SeV’s Evolution Jacket, here is the a list of my gear :

-ASUS ULV80V 14.1″ Laptop w/ cables

-Logitech wireless mouse

-3rd gen iPod iTouch w/ earbuds and USB cable

-Clearspot Mobile Wi-Fi hot-spot w/ dongle and AC adapter

-Kodak EasyShare DX6490 SLR camera and USB cable

-USB Imitation 4 GB Flash drive

-rewindable mini earbuds for laptop

-2 GB SD Card

-2 Moleskine reporter notepads

-Bus schedules

-Pen w/ LED flashlight

-Mechanical draft pencil

-Random book of the day

-Personal medications for emergencies

-12oz Redbull/Gatorade

-Wallet and keys

Now some would say that it would be way too heavy to carry in one piece of clothing but I would counter that argument with I would have to carry that gear in my baggage anyway. Now I do admit there was some getting used to the weight, but it was better than having a laptop bag digging into one shoulder and having tech bags bouncing off my hip annoyingly. It is a bit of trick to sit in a car or bus seat with a laptop but with practice it is easily resolved. But I did not experience any kind of back or shoulder pain from all the weight I was carrying, a testament to the design of the jacket. The gear imprinting or “bulky look” was very small in the pockets themselves, so it did not look like I was carrying all that gear.

In fact when I visited a friend later that weekend, he had no idea what I had in that jacket until pulled that laptop out. His eyes just popped out like I pulled some fancy magic trick. I found this so amusing I went ahead and pulled this “trick” a few more times to other people I knew or met during that weekend just to see their reaction.

Another thing I like to rave about is SeV’s customer service. This is one of the few tech companies that I know that actually take the time and effort to listen to their customers. When a question or a minor issue came up with the SeV products I owned, they were very prompt and honest with their responses, both by phone and email. In fact, I like to give out a shout-out to customer rep Sherri for taking the time and patience in dealing with all my countless questions and ramblings. You’re the best!
