    Scottevest multi-pocket jackets and vests

    AARP Magazine gave a heads up to http://www.scottevest.com/

    A most interesting site for those of us who often prefer a vest or jacket in lieu of a sporran - particularly for air travel.

    Seem to be a little down home outfit out of Idaho. Would have ordered the Red Rock vest this evening if they would have been open - maybe tomorrow.

    Anyone have one of their products already?

    Very cool! I travel a fair amount and this is PERFECT. Thanks for the link, I may have to order one before my trip in May.

    Advertising a vest with 22 pockets to AARP members just sounds cruel. I’m only 50 and I know I would never be able to find anything once I load the vest up.

    I can tell you for a certainty that they didn't pay for this advertising. They are one of the most picky advertisers in the industry.
    AND I'm 27 and I loose my keys in the 6 pockets of p@nts and a jacket. I am terrified to think of the lost loot in that vest.

    I have one of these
    http://www.duluthtrading.com/store/c...ture=product_1
    and it certaintly was a mental exercise to remember what's where.
    I've had it for a few years so I've developed the habit of putting things in the same pocket every time so now I can remember where they are.

    I think these are the vests William Shatner wears on the new TV show $#!% My Dad Says. Bet he got his with the AARP discount.

    I'm more interested in NOT checking luggage. Between this and ForresterModern's sky roll thing, I'd be good for a week or more and not have to check ANYTHING! Plus my backpack which I can pack 2 full uniforms into....I'll be set. I don't care if I find anything, I'll just dump it all out in the hotel

    The big key is having enough small pockets to keep metal objects from banging together. Like your flashlight, cell phone, iPod, and pocket knife.

    Very handy for those working in executive/dignitary protection in a "low profile" role. You typically have to have a fair amount of gear at hand, but you may not want that to be obvious.

    Adam Baldwin's character of Casey on "Chuck" has worn Scottevest jackets on a number of occasions. It would appear that he agrees with you.
