e-Volve Gadget Shoulder Holster: the ultimate man purse

Let's get one thing straight right from the get-go: the e-Volve Gadget Shoulder Holster could definitely be considered the ultimate woman purse too, but that would first require you to actually find a female who would agree to said statement with a straight face. Following in the oh-so-daring footsteps of the nearly legendary Remote Wrangler is this piece: a mishmash that's half C.O.P.S., half Brenthaven and 100% gnarly. Aside from providing the perfect cover for carrying your essentials underneath a suit, it offers up plenty of space for a smartphone, a backup mobile, a writing utensil, a few earbuds and, if positioned correctly, a Chrome 45. That's a lot of badassery for just $69.95.

God.

[Rogue_Genius @ Nov 18th 2008 1:20AM]

No, not God. Bruce Willis.

Who apparently favors the iPhone...

[gad get @ Nov 18th 2008 1:48AM]

That doesn't even look like Bruce Willis!

He's got more of a Yul Brynner thing happening. Straight out of Westworld.

[Decoy @ Nov 18th 2008 5:05AM]

An ungodly chimera of Bruce Willis and Michael J Fox. Don't give him a gun!

[Darkroom @ Nov 18th 2008 7:19AM]

i know, right... it's a "Murse", engadget... not man purse... pfff

[Adam Kantor @ Nov 18th 2008 9:12AM]

Looks more like Mats Sundin to me.

[unFi @ Nov 18th 2008 1:19AM]

I was just thinking my pocket protector is getting too main stream. Thanks!

[targ8ter @ Nov 18th 2008 6:23PM]

I actually think it's a great idea. A shoulder holster is more comfortable than a hip holster, and it's safer for fragile gadgets since you can't accidentally sit or lean on it. It's out of the way, doesn't make your waistline bulky, and doesn't flap around if you need to run. And, as someone stated earlier, it would be perfect for something like a small netbook which is too large for a pocket, and too small to need its own bag. Obviously, it's best if covered by a jacket, but in any case it's less dorky than a fanny pack or a bunch of pouches clipped to a belt.

That whole picture screams gay at you.

[ethana2 @ Nov 18th 2008 1:25AM]

yes

[calvinki @ Nov 18th 2008 1:38AM]

Here we go again! Haven't you people seen that commercial on TV? Don't make me send Wanda over to take care of you.

[Boards of Canada @ Nov 18th 2008 5:52AM]

yeah, he have an iphone! metrosexual at least.

[Zeth Ethereal @ Nov 18th 2008 1:20AM]

Mr. Clean 2.0!!

[Patriks7 @ Nov 18th 2008 1:22AM]

So I've been working out to just look fat with this for the past 5 months? Screw technology :p

[Jon Nelson @ Nov 18th 2008 1:24AM]

Wow, $70 for this hideous thing?

I guess that's the price of a hit these days, because if I ever saw someone wearing one, I think I'd immediately kill them.

[Shinigami @ Nov 18th 2008 1:26AM]

.... just don't take your suit off in front of people...

[gad get @ Nov 18th 2008 1:49AM]

I generally don't.

[collegekid13 @ Nov 18th 2008 1:29AM]

Interesting way to start this entry:

"Let's get one thing straight..."

[Thi mam(kris120890) @ Nov 18th 2008 1:36AM]

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAA

[KeatMP @ Nov 18th 2008 1:57AM]

Very clever, you are.

[surt @ Nov 18th 2008 1:34AM]

What are you guys on about? That's got to be one of the straightest purses I've ever seen. Certainly in the top ten.

[Robot @ Nov 18th 2008 1:34AM]

An easy way to get shot when grabbing for your Mylo.

[Patriks7 @ Nov 18th 2008 2:17AM]

"It's just gum"
"HE HAS A GUN!"

Sorry, saw Get Smart too many times in the last couple days :p

[Pradster @ Nov 18th 2008 11:18AM]

Exactly my point! Be prepared to be shot next time you have to take a phone call!

[calvinki @ Nov 18th 2008 1:42AM]

He has Dr. Evil's pinky!

[majortom @ Nov 18th 2008 1:44AM]

looks like a young captain Stubin. And no, no chrome gun. Only pimps carry shiny guns.

[John @ Nov 18th 2008 1:46AM]

that'll be so perfect for the airport

[ark_v2 @ Nov 18th 2008 1:46AM]

For some reason the title reminded me of Seinfeld...

[absinthe party @ Nov 18th 2008 7:34AM]

Yeah.. I was just thinking that this would go perfect with a manzier, or a Bro.

[JJ @ Nov 18th 2008 1:46AM]

John McCain Jr. making it happen...

[Crayola @ Nov 18th 2008 1:49AM]

Mommy! Mommy! Look! That guy has an egg for a head!

[MarionBarfs @ Nov 18th 2008 1:51AM]

look at that pinky. work it!

[BigD145 @ Nov 18th 2008 1:52AM]

Oh noes. Obama has already started banning weapons and the shoulder holster has stooped to this. The horror!

Oh, wait. This is prime for a Blackberry, which McCain invented. It's more horrible than I could possibly imagine!!

[Chin-Poh @ Nov 18th 2008 1:56AM]

He looks a LOT like a skinnier Dan Florek. : )

[gad get @ Nov 18th 2008 1:57AM]

Hey, at least it beats carrying your gadgets strapped to your head! I mean, the Remote Wrangler is epically dorky! I don't care who you are, if I saw you wearing the Remote Wrangler, I would honestly probably spend the rest of the day laughing my butt off while at the same time fearing for your sanity and pitying you!

[YunG @ Nov 18th 2008 2:02AM]

Freeze!! This is FBI (show the emblem on iphone,then)

[Bill @ Nov 18th 2008 2:05AM]

The whole thing screams pretentious Asshole. Look at me, like 100 million others, I have the assets to own an iphone. And unlike its iconic style, I dress like the king of the douchebags. Honest to Christ, if someone bought me this for Christmas, I'd smile warmly and then stab them to death.

Instead of a card that says "I hate your Fin guts" buy this.

[Artie Lange @ Nov 18th 2008 2:09AM]

Christmas at your place sounds brutal.

[Artie Lange @ Nov 18th 2008 2:07AM]

That guy stole his pose from Chuck Norris. That's why he's dead now - Chuck strangled him with his own gadget holster. Never steel anything from Chuck Norris. Never.

[qwerty @ Nov 18th 2008 2:29AM]

hahaha.

people that post comments on engadget crack me up.

[gad get @ Nov 18th 2008 3:13AM]

@ qwerty

Hahahaha! You're a funny guy, posting on Engadget!

[Greg Cox @ Nov 18th 2008 2:15AM]

That thing is made of win but youll never hear me callin it a man-purse no way.

[Icepick @ Nov 18th 2008 2:29AM]

TSA Approved hahahahahah

[Alex @ Nov 18th 2008 2:51AM]

I thought the original Mr. Clean died recently?!

[Haggardpete @ Nov 18th 2008 3:16AM]

Here in the UK the police shoot you for carrying a table leg or a rucksack.. He would last about 5 minutes in London...

[gad get @ Nov 18th 2008 3:20AM]

A table leg?! Who carries a table leg around?!
