The next time you’re in a quandary, put on this replica of Captain Jean-Luc Picard’s jacket and let the cerebral hero of Star Trek: The Next Generation be your spirit animal. As soon as you put it on you’ll have at least one profound thought: “Really Captain? Suede?”

The officially-licensed replica is being made by Anovos, who got their hands on one of the jackets worn by Patrick Stewart in the last two seasons of the show. The company claims that the replica’s color, pattern and fabric closely match the TV show costume.

Damn. That’s a 90s show all right.

As of this writing you can pre-order the jacket from Anovos for $250 (USD). Only 100 jackets will be made, with the final 40 jackets going for $300. At those prices you’d think the turtleneck and comm badge would be included.

The jacket will be made of lambskin leather and will even come with an N7-embroidered garment bag. It will also come with a voucher for a hoodie, although BioWare did not say exactly what hoodie buyers will get. Careful BioWare. The hoodie may not live up to people’s expectations. It may not be the hoodie that they’re expecting to receive after all these years. Next thing you know you’re being blasted with #RetaketheHoodie and petitions to change the hoodie online.

    SeV Alpha Jacket ensures that pickpockets would find you a difficult ‘project’

    sev-alphaThere is always an air of mystery around those who play the role of spies, and no matter how tight a situation that they have gotten themselves into, somehow or rather, they would have figured out an alternative way to overcome the precarious scenario – all the while looking so good that not a single strand of hair is out of place. Well, spies dress well, too, since they tend to be on the government’s payroll. If you want to be one of them spies with a cool looking jacket, you might want to check out the $199.99 SeV Alpha Jacket and see what it has in store.

    The SeV Alpha Jacket is a super spy jacket which is capable of concealing whatever you’re carrying, thanks to a grand total of (drumroll, please) 35 pockets. Yes sir, you read that right, 35 freakin’ pockets! I guess we are talking about having both form and function in this case, where the SeV Alpha Jacket will even boast of a Personal Area Network (PAN) that would enable you to run wires through and to many of the pockets invisibly, including earbud loops, sleeve microphone loops, and an RFID-blocking pocket. The only problem is, you might just forget where you have placed a particular item in your pocket during those moments of emergency.

    Jacket Made from Comic-Con Swag Bags: Geek Chic

    Check out this awesome jacket made from Comic-Con swag bags. It looks like something the Riddler would wear. Or that guy who used to do late night infomercials, who also dressed like the Riddler. I think we have a new villain on our hands. I will call him Swagger!

    comic con jacket

    Most people cosplay as characters that already exist, so this one stands out and is very creative. It has some amazing style and of course you can’t go wrong with a bow tie and a sonic screwdriver too.

    Mad sewing skills there. If you give Swagger a bag, he will give you justice! Or at the very least he’ll give you some eye candy.

    Doppelganger is a Jacket, Long Coat, and Sleeping Bag In One

    It’s a jacket, it’s coat, no wait… it’s a sleeping bag and all of the above!

    The Doppelganger Outdoors Wearable Sleeping Bag might seem like a confusing article of clothing at first, but it’s actually extremely useful once you’re familiar with all the possible ways you can wear it.

    Doppelganger Sleeping Bag

    First of all, it’s a jacket. That’s the purple part of the Doppelganger shown above. It offers basic protection against the elements, so if you’re traveling or going on a trio outdoors, then this is one of the essentials that you should pack along with you. If it’s getting too chilly or rainy, then unzip to release the gray portion to extend the Doppelganger into a long coat.

    And when you’re finally ready to turn in for the night, just unzip a couple more times to release the blue-colored extensions of the Doppelganger to turn it into a sleeping bag.

    The Doppelganger jacket is a bit pricey though, but just think of it as three things in one and maybe you can justify its price. It sells for $138(USD) from the Japan Trend Shop.
