The Vessel: sleep in your backpack and wear it as a coat

Like Katrien wrote in her article Connect smart in the cold!, the sudden cold this year surprised us all, and we felt the need to wear warmer coats. But now that the temperature is rising again, we  tend to leave that warm coat in our closet until next winter. Wouldn’t it be great if we could continue using this coat during the rest of the year? Let’s say as a backpack? Or – why not – as a tent?

This must have been exactly what went to Justin Gargasz’ mind when he designed the Vessel Coat Tent. It’s a coat that can be folded and used as a backpack, or stretched out and used as a tent.

Since an MTB-student always needs pen and paper or a laptop, an agenda and some water and food to get through the day, an MTB-student without a bag to transport all these things is a very rare species. So if it gets warmer, you can easily use your coat as a bag. And maybe, when you can’t find your house after a night out, or when the National Railway Company of Belgium is on strike again, you can just stretch it out and sleep in it! Isn't that convenient?
