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.

Maybe you can keep your douchebag in it too?

[Whyte Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:18AM]

God.

[RogueGenius Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:20AM]

No, not God. Bruce Willis.

Who apparently favors the iPhone...

[Gad Get Posted 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 Posted Nov 18th 2008 5:05AM]

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

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 18th 2008 9:12AM]

Looks more like Mats Sundin to me.

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

[(Unverified) Posted 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.

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.

Mr. Clean 2.0!!

[Raul7 Posted 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

[Onashi608 Posted 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 Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:26AM]

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

[Gad Get Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:49AM]

I generally don't.

Not until AMD starts making handhelds!

[(Unverified) Posted 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.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:34AM]

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

[Raul7 Posted 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 Posted Nov 18th 2008 11:18AM]

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

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

He has Dr. Evil's pinky!

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

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

[john Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:46AM]

that'll be so perfect for the airport

[Arkv2 Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:46AM]

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

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 18th 2008 7:34AM]

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

[crayola Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:49AM]

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

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:51AM]

look at that pinky. work it!

[BigD145 Posted 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!!

[RKN Posted Nov 18th 2008 1:56AM]

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

[Gad Get Posted 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!

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 18th 2008 2:02AM]

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

[RafterManFMJ Posted 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.

[(Unverified) Posted Nov 18th 2008 2:09AM]

Christmas at your place sounds brutal.

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.

people that post comments on engadget crack me up.

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

[HaggardPete Posted 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 Posted Nov 18th 2008 3:20AM]

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