When it was "acceptable" I used a fanny pack, not sure what you called them over there, but they clip on like a belt and have a good sized pouch. Always liked the "utility belt" superheroes wear, but to sit down or drive you even need to remove fanny packs, so I don't expect utility belts to become a trend. It the digital age I think the extra pockets in clothing will have to suffice. We guys need to carry more gear, than we used to. I'll never be ready to carry a purse, LOL! ________________________________ From: Dewald van Deventer <dewaldvandeventer@xxxxxxxxx> To: blindza@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Sent: Saturday, August 13, 2011 8:22 AM Subject: [blindza] Re: Weekend question related to multi-pocket waist coat jackets Hi Jake. Yeh, that's a good idea. I baught myself a man bag last year. But don't really wantto carry it around, since it maybe looks a bit ladyish, and some oke might try to steal it. The jacket sounds very cool, and that's what i also do, but what do you do in the summer?
