Review - Scott eVest
Posted by gm under Reviews
The Scott eVest is a remarkably well-designed, stylish, smart piece of clothing.
It was originally designed for the needs of the professional techfiend, as a way to carry and use all the miscellaneous stuff that gets lost in bags and briefcases and make it accessible.
The reason for this review is that it does a bang-up job for gamers as well. I do a lot of gaming, and a lot of traveling. I adore my eVest. It saves me trouble and worry, and here’s why.
An eVest allows me to carry everything I need in a day, and it carries it without looking or feeling bogged down. There are around 30 pockets in this thing. That’s right, 30. Wanna know what I carry in them?
Dice; pens/pencils/Sharpie/eraser; notebook for NPCs and session notes/modules; snack; bottle of water; blood sugar monitor, lancets, and test strips (I’m diabetic); cellphone; Archos DVR/MP3 player; headphones; USB media; Handheld PC; medicines; batteries; Swiss Army Knife; wallet; gaming book or paperback; the latest Dungeon or Dragon magazine; change; CCG deck in case; keys; and more things I’d have to dig thru it to remember.
I am prepared for cons; I can pack easily for a trip. Most of my essentials are there when I need them, wherever I happen to be. It’s comfortable, doesn’t hurt my back, and keeps me warm. It’s sleek, and I don’t look like a bag lady wearing it. Going thru airports is a breeze, I just take off the eVest and put it on the scanner. No worries about what’s in my pants pockets. I can go on a car trip and be able to reach most everything I need without stopping to dig in the back. Everything has its own pocket so I don’t have to dig the way I have to in a purse. And I can reasonably be assured I show up on gaming night with everything I need.
I love you, Scott eVest.
