Scottevest Tropical Jacket: To Sleeve or Not to Sleeve
Posted In:
Though it doesn’t fold down to the size of a napkin the Scottevest Tropical Jacket does conveniently fold in on itself to form a tiny little pouch which makes it easy to pack or carry around with you. This video shows the jacket being packed away.
The other cool thing about this jacket is its ability to “transform” from normal sleeved jacket into a sleeveless jacket (ie, a vest). It’s annoying when you are wearing a jacket, it gets warm, and then you have to tie your jacket around your waist if you want to take it off. Now with removable sleeves you can just tear those suckers off and go into cooling mode.
The ability to fold into itself and removable sleeves are among my favorite features of the Tropical jacket, but it does have some other noteworthy features and abilities.
- It’s got 18 pockets. 18 pockets! That’s a lot of places to hide drugs, weapons, or other illegal paraphernalia
- Clear pockets. Some of the inside pockets are clear so if you put a cell phone there you could look who’s calling before you even take the phone out of the pocket
- Beverage holder. Inside the front pocket is an elastic band that will hold your beverage in the upright position
It’s got a bunch of other cool features like a earphone cord management and a key holder, but to me I still love the fact that it can transform.
When I buy stuff like this I feel like I’m getting two pieces of clothing for the price of one (which is why I like reversible stuff too!)
FuncFash-ness: 8/10
- Functional: 4/5 (convert from sleeve to sleeveless and pack it to go!)
- Fashionable: 4/5 (not covered in logos and blends-in hiding the awesomeness it packs)
Where to Buy:
