iPod Jacket collection

Kenpo is getting very serious about Wearable Electronics. After a ’slow start’ earlier this year, Kenpo is flooding the market with 15 new styles and more than a dozen colors including bubble jackets (some with fur-lined hoods), sleek sprinter jackets, snowboarding jackets and windbreakers.

Kenpo has a selection of Ladies and Mens Jackets. A very big variation of styles that should serve many different tastes. There is really no reason anymore to say one looks ‘geeky’ or ‘jerky’ by wearing Techno Fashion.

The use ranges from snowboarding to a night in the city, the wearers can pause, skip tracks and adjust volume, without fumbling with zippers and gloves, or hard to get to pockets.

The iPod can stay tucked away in the jacket’s inner padded pouch. There’s also a new locking feature that prevents the settings from being changed due to accidental bumping. A good user observation and learning on Kenpo’ s side.

The Jackets make use again of Eleksen’s ElekTex patented “smart fabric” touch pad technology to transform the sleeve into a 5-button electronic control panel for use with all iPod models (expect for the iPod Shuffle).

Because of the absent of any wires or a metal contact, the jacket is machine washable, completely self-powered and requires no batteries.

And here is the very good news: Kenpo’s Jacket for iPod has a suggested retail price range depending on style from US$89 to US$189.

Here is a link to one of the online shops to order your Jacket.
