Wearable Gadget Accessories No One Should Wear

How Not to Be Taken Seriously: Gadget Gear to Avoid

March 10, 2009

1 / 10

I love the hybrid of convenience and comfort that comes in the form of wearable gadgets or accessories, but there are some things — OK many things — that convenience aside, no self-respecting human should be caught dead wearing. At least not in public, among people you may want to date, hire, or befriend you some day. Check out my selections and see if you agree with me.

I had to laugh at the laptop holder. So lame! I bet if you used it though, you'd get lots of comments and questions from passersby! My child would love the R2D2 backpack, but a grown woman? No way!

kia- I've got a pair of fierce metallic red Stuart Weitzman heels that could even make those lederhosen look good ;-)

Come on macgirl... I bet you could rock the lederhosen with some nice pumps and a handbag.

no offense cirrus1701 as this is just my opinion (and seriously, what's it worth?)- I hate the thumps. I had the president of my biggest clients bring them in so I could put music on them for his wife. Oh god were they ugly. Also the interface to get music on them sucked, the capacity was low. I later successfully talked him into buying a nice iPod for his wife. She loves it!

I'm a total sucker for Oakley! I've had a number of pairs over the years, and I love that "futuristic" look. Yes, I'll admit I think the Thumps are cool. Never tried them on, so that might be a problem. I dunno. Just my 2 cents.

I knew a former Special ops guy that wore everything on his belt. Flashight, phones, pens, tools, just everything. He would proably like that gadget belt if it came in black. We used to tease him about it. . .but hey, he was always ready for anything!

The gadget belt is the worst for me. I don't even like the little holders that come w/ cell phones that people clip on their belt. But I also don't like people who clip their honking huge key ring on their belt loop. Wow, look at you...you must be super important to have that many keys and a cell phone ready at a moments notice!
