Designed to help frequent flyers bypass airport baggage queues, reduce baggage fees and virtually eliminate the risk of lost luggage, this modular Airport Jacket features 14 pockets and two detachable "pocket panels" that fit around 15 kilograms of luggage.
为了帮助经常坐飞机的乘客避开托运行李的长龙，节省行李费，并有效地降低行李丢失的风险，组合式“机场夹克”设计了14个口袋、两个可以容纳15公斤行李的可拆卸“口袋布块”。
"With airlines beginning to charge for overhead carry-on baggage as well as
severely restricting baggage allowances for the low fare economy traveler, my partner and I have designed a modular jacket that allows you to wear your laptop, tablet, two pairs of shoes, a pair of jeans, five t-shirts, a jumper and an SLR camera," designer Claire Murphy explains.
"It totals 14 deep pockets, including eight pockets at
hip length, 11 pockets at three-quarter length and 14 pockets at full length. It includes two detachable pocket panels, and a carry-on size duffle bag."
Claire and Benke Murphy came up with the idea for the Airport Jacket while traveling home with their newborn child. They had so much extra carry-on luggage, because of the baby, that the airline tried to charge them $140 for it, more than the cost of their tickets.
So they had to put clothes,
gadget chargers, diapers and toys into their pockets, until they were just over the weight limit. They
dodged the tax, but everything was sticking out of their pockets and it was a pretty uncomfortable plane ride. That's when they
decided that there was a massive need for a solution to this problem, and the idea for the Airport Jacket was born.
"Wearers need simply slide their luggage into the jacket pockets when checking in and boarding the flight, and once safely off the plane the jacket can easily be unzipped and transformed into a duffle bag capable of holding both the jacket plus all items in the pockets," Juice
Promotions Australia, the company behind this unique product, claims.
