Milan - A Fashion Statement

About a third of the way up and outside of the deep pocket there is a zippered pocket on either side of the jacket. On the right side; there is a large pocket with a mesh exterior and on the left side; the pocket is divided into two compartments joined by a Velcro strip (the Velcro strip will allow for making the two pockets into one larger pocket).

And there is still more! On the right interior, just above the tabbed DCC+ pocket, you find an additional magnetic closure pocket perfect for cash, cell, or any smaller sized device. Inside this pocket, you will find a hidden zippered pocket perfect for hiding that emergency cash you like to keep.

In addition, located in the upper right interior, there is a diagonally placed hidden zippered pocket; perfect for holding a variety of thin items that you need quick access to. On the left side, there is a vertical hidden zippered pocket adjacent to the ear bud pocket. I like to use this pocket for my wallet although there clearly are a variety of uses for this one. Again, it is here you find another “little touch”; a soft cloth for cleaning your glasses attached to a clipped bungee cord.

41 pockets (actually, I really think there are 44 but who’s counting) integrated in such a way that each that you can store, hide and carry all that you need while away. On this jacket, the SeV logo is noticeably absent from the exterior; a good decision. The zipper pulls do have a logo but it is unnoticeable unless you look for it.

Function is important to SCOTTEVEST but having a jacket that sets a design standard for the industry is just as important. The Milan has a classic look, combined with a relaxed style, and leather that feels soft and comfortable. This distinctive design that offers you the ultimate in comfort and style will be perfect for any occasion.

Appearantly Gizmodo had a look at MobilityToday:

"... home of all things PDA, is now MobilityToday, which is focusing on old men wearing jackets..."

lpricci, I asked Jennifer last night as we were eating dinner but she said her agent would want a contract...so I passed on it!

Jack-

The jacket sure looks good on you, but how would it look on Jennifer Anniston or Angalina Jolie? Can you get them to pose for Dave's Ipaq??

This was an excellent review of a technology enabled jacket Jack!

casteve, it part of the whole package; devices and accesories to make your life easier. I am glad the reviews expand into the peripheral areas!

guys, keep it up after reading this review I am buying one!

Major loss of focus at this site! The home page features a leather jacket for the last week, the previous two weeks it features a brief case?

Guys, I don't think this is why visitors come to this site. I'm sure i represent a good portion of your visitors who are truly looking for IPAQ information.

It's also very frustrating to hear on your podcasts about how you have signed NDA's and can't fully discuss new products you may have seen. Entering into NDA's may be allow you to have personal fun looking at new products, but does nothing for the community.

Just looked at the bag. That's great, and one I'd like for heavy traveling...but I am looking for something closer to the "Pod" that I just saw when browsing again. Something I can carry around on an everyday basis, like going shopping with the wife or going to the ballpark or Disney World. The Pod bag is pretty good, but too "bulky." I've seen some messanger bags that have the right size and shape, but have like 2 pockets. I'd have to have at least 20 or so. Someone has made one very close to what I'm looking for, I've just got to find it!

Back to the topic at hand...gorgeous leather jacket!

Jeterdawg, Jack just did a review on a great bag that might be as you describe...

Thanks for your reply, Scott. I am a CPA and I was just thinking how great of the type of client your company would be...my two favorite industries - technology and retail.

BTW, I noticed before when I first heard of your site, and now again some months later...you have no bags on your site. I would think a "geek bag" would be the ultimate compliment to most of the items in your line. I drew up a couple of blueprints for a bag that I was hoping my mom could sew (she's an interior decorator) together. It combines many of the traits your clothing features - PiP's, wiring routes, and secret pockets.

I'm the type of person who would love extra pockets on most articles, but I'd want to carry most of my stuff in a bag of some type. I love the flexibility of having so many pockets to choose where your favorite gadget will go though. I think a pair of pants and one of the lighter jackets will be going on my wishlist for Christmas. If my in-laws are dead-set on getting my clothes, by golly I'm going to like the ones they give me!

Sorry for my late reply. Let me try to answer all the questions.

1. We are not public.
2. Although several catalogues are carring us, and online several places now, including www.thinkgeek.com, the only other place you can physically see them is the International Spy Museam in D.C., and they only have some of our items. We are working on more outlets. However, we make returns and exchanges VERY easy.

There is no question about that Jeterdawg! This new jacket is just awesome!

Posted by Jack Cook, Tuesday, Nov. 1st, 2005

I read in a press release from the SeV website that they are selling some of their clothing line in Neiman Marcus and Magellans. That is REALLY going to make the company take off.

This jacket is amazing. Too bad I live in Texas and wouldn't get to use it too often!

I can't tell from the website if the Company is public at this time or not. If you're reading, Scott, please let us know.

Posted by Jeterdawg, Tuesday, Nov. 1st, 2005

Scott, is there anyplace we can check out SeV stuff before buying? It all looks cool, but the price is high enough that I'd prefer to check the clothes out before I buy.

I like this jacket.
Thank you for good information Jack.

PS: jack do you remember me? i'm the operator of TODAYSPPC.COM .
It's great to see you again on your web site.

I agree Cookie_Jar! I hope this is my Christmas gift!

The discount at the end is a good deal too!

Posted by Frank83, Monday, Oct. 31st, 2005

Hey Scott this by far is going to be a big seller. What I like about it is that it still serves a purpose to carry your gear with ya! Jack I am sure you will be nice and warm this winter.

Posted by David Ciccone, Monday, Oct. 31st, 2005

WOW

This is an awesome jacket!

Posted by Cookie_Jar, Monday, Oct. 31st, 2005

Thanks for the review. If you post your comments and questions here, I will try to reply promptly. I can tell you that this is my absolute favorite jacket, and based upon all the comments we have received thus far, everyone seems to agree! We are guaranteed to sell out of these by Xmas!
