Don't think I'll be buying one either Lassi, although you'd certainly stand out in a crowd

I saw these on a holiday programme a while ago and it gave me the idea to travel in a jacket with loads of pockets.
I always stuff the pockets with heavier items and even manage to get books in them.

I saw something similar on another forum that I use and the man who posted the picture said he had used it loads of times and it was amazing how much he could get in the pockets.

Reminds me a bit of a few years ago when I was flying to the UK every few weeks. I only travelled with a small cabin case and invariably bought more than the weight limit would allow to take back to Germany with me and I would have my coat or jacket weighed down by packets of cheddar and other cheeses in all of the pockets when I went through check in.

Given that it is clearly designed to be a wearable bag rather than a real coat I suspect it won't be long before Ryanair change their rules. Possibly make you sit in it for the whole flight?

flying Ryon air this weekend - hand baggage full so out has come my fishing waistcoat/body warmer got everything i normally put in a bag in the pockets still a couple of items to go [and several spare pockets] it weighs about 5kg at the moment similar to this

well it looks a bit more sensible than the Rufus but it still makes me think of a suicide bomber....

its even got the hook on the back for my landing net... if there are no seats i could always use it to hang around
