Geeks travel with a lot of stuff, that is undeniable. You have your smartphone, your tablet, your MP3 player, your camera, your Wi-Fi dongle, comic books, your bottled water, and your smartphone just to name a few. That means when you leave the house, odds are you have to schlep a backpack everywhere, or the pockets of your pants are all puffy, heavy, and saggy. What you need is a better way to carry all of your gear.
ThinkGeek has teamed up with the geek clothing purveyors Scottevest to build a jacket that has a bunch of pockets called the Tropiformer. To quantify the technical term “a bunch of pockets” more precisely, the jacket specifically has 22 pockets. It doesn’t really look like it has 22 pockets from the outside, but it does. Among those plentiful pockets is a big pocket sized specifically for your tablet. It also has a pocket inside the left-hand flap with a clear material over the top so you to operate your smartphone without having to take it out. Handy, indeed.
The jacket comes in four different colors including blue, red, gray, and cement, and is made from a lightweight, water-resistant fabric. The sleeves are held on with magnets so you can rip them off easily during your Hulk fantasies, or if you get too hot. Check out the video below to see more jacket-of-many-pockets action.
You can order the Tropiformer jacket right now for $149.99(USD) over at ThinkGeek.

So, you think that you have it all down pat when it comes to attending conventions and the like? Well, wearing the right kind of jacket could help make your life a whole lot easier, and just in case you were wondering which company is capable of coming up with a geek-friendly jacket, look no further than Scottevest, who has come up with their fair share of wonders in the past, in addition to their most recent addition – the $149.99 Tropiformer jacket.
The Tropiformer jacket is a tech- and travel-focused garment which would make life a whole lot easier, especially when you have a plethora of gadgets and gear to tote around. It will arrive in four different colors to suit most geeks’ taste, while boasting 22 integrated pockets which were specially designed to distribute the weight of an entire convention’s worth of necessaries equally, leaving you with far less sore shoulders and forearms at the end of the day. Not only that, the Tropiformer jacket will come with magnetically attached sleeves so that it can be transformed from jacket to vest in mere seconds. To see a dedicated tablet pocket thrown into the mix is certainly encouraging, too.

It’s been a hot minute since we’ve seen a new wearable from the labs of Scottevest, but for those looking to cram all sorts of gadgetry into their coat as a strange sort of airplane carry-on item, we’re here to clue you in on a new option. Tag-teaming with ThinkGeek, Scottevest has announced the Tropiformer — a relatively normal looking coat that somehow includes no fewer than 22 integrated pockets.
Specifically, there’s a dedicated tablet pocket (seriously), a Personal Area Network for internal cable management (seriously), a locking pocket (seriously) and a Quick Draw Pocket that supports capacitive devices (seriously). Moreover, the sleeves are removable in the event that you’d like to completely humiliate yourself, and we’re told that the jacket “can easily be packed into itself” — whatever that means. It’s shipping right now for $150, and those needing a bit more convincing can get precisely that just after the break.

As geeks, it’s hard for us to carry all of our geek accoutrements to our various geek events. That’s why I, for one, love ScottEVest: they’re durable, fun, and pocket-ful pieces of clothing for the nerd on the go.
We sat down with Scott Jordan, the Scott of the EVest, and talked about their latest creation, the TEC Jacket 2.0 with a full iPad pocket, easy-to-access phone pocket, and an internal wiring system.
Scott started his business 10 years ago and is popping up all over these days. We had a few minutes to talk with him about his latest creations and what has changed over the decade he’s been in business.
