scaledimg_6845The gear these Austrian ladies are selling is pretty cool. It’s a bunch of straps and bags for all your gadgets that wrap around your body like a bandoleer. But what are they called? I’m glad you asked.

URBAN TOOL.

That’s right. URBAN TOOL. It’s such a great phrase. Peter Ha, for example, is an URBAN TOOL, especially if you take out the URBAN part.

  • Watch yourself John… Watch yourself.

  • Exactly what you will look like wearing this! URBAN TOOL!!!!!

  • … as opposed to an Urbane Tool… you know, that Jackass that stands in front of you queuing up for morning coffee, yammering on about some shit art school band he ‘discovered’ the other night whilst trawling a privately-owned bookstore for a particular copy of Dante’s Inferno that’s superior in every way to the one Sayers put out in the 1960’s.
    While what you’ve shown us here might look like it was made by a spastic in a life-skills sewing class, in comparison to the aforementioned morning-buggering-bastard, the Aussies have cranked out a bit of Hugo Boss.

  • I consider myself to be pretty savy, in addition to liking “almost” all techno gear and gadgets. I own too much tech stuff and I am always looking at more. The urban gear…well lets just say it doesn’t attract me. I clicked my way over to their site and viewed a few pieces. They seem like more trouble then they are worth. JMHO

  • Yep, only a tool would wear that crap. It’s like buying stuff from Bannanna Republic and wearing it on a trip to Africa. They’ll just laugh at you.

  • Thought it would be useful if you listen to Mp3’s while…mountain climbing.

  • Cool, just a very funny clothes! I like that style!
