e-Volve Gadget Holster 2.0 is now the ultimate man purse

It's things like Project Natal and Sony's PSPgo that really get our juices flowing, but it's items such as e-Volve's Gadget Holster 2.0 that just make us giddy for no reason whatsoever. After the original Man Purse™ launched to much fanfare late last year, the folks at e-Holster have redesigned said device in order to better fit new smartphones and provide dainty men with more padding to soften the load. We can't even list here all the things you can hold in this thing (a spoon, Smith & Wesson 686, Bowie knife and an exquisite set of earbuds, for starters) but if you're willing to toss pride to the wind, this baby's all yours for $29.95.

It's not a purse. It's European!

I'm American, will it make me more trendy if I wear it?

He'd better have a high-powered automatic pistol in that holster, or else. No straight guy in his right mind would be using something like that for a PMP holder. There's just something wrong with that sort of carrier design on a number of levels. They're basically made to be worn under jackets to conceal the bulk and handle the weight of a pistol. Using it for a PMP is just overkill (pardon the pun).

There are plenty of belt pouches that will do the job without attracting that kind of attention.

This one is better: http://www.thinkgeek.com/computing/bags/9190/ -- but I still wouldn't want to wear one.

@iphonerulez,

No Gay guy in his right mind either!

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 7:39PM]

Everyone knows a man's purse is a Murse!

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 7:52PM]

HAHAHAAHA!!!

you win best reference award for articles ive read today.

[NikAmi Posted Jun 3rd 2009 8:22PM]

That couldn't look gayer even if it were bedazzled and hanging from Liberace's pinky finger with a vibrating egg hanging out the side.

[barCODE Posted Jun 4th 2009 1:33AM]

Would definitely go well with this attire.

Perfect for Jacqui Bauer...

[Darkroom Posted Jun 4th 2009 3:57AM]

it's a "murse"!

[One Love Posted Jun 4th 2009 11:25AM]

Sadly I had one in 1991, wore it in college, thought I was cool. Got it from my British cousin.

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:07PM]

HAHAHAHHAAHAHHHAHHAHHA

All he's missing is the matching skirt: http://anonboard.com/bbs/show_topic/94632

HAHAHAHAHA

He fights crime with a man purse.

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 7:11PM]

I don't know about 'fights crime' maybe just slaps them and gives them a good scolding.

Does it have a separate pouch to carry his balls too?

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 7:16PM]

for the owner of this purse, his balls would be carried in his womans purse, or, ahem, other mans pocket.

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:08PM]

If i saw anyone wearing one of these I would go up to them and punch them in the face...

[Wwhat Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:14PM]

Ironically, internet dweebs doing tough talk are the men-purses of society.

[snowglyder Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:08PM]

Oh my gay.

[Nerdtalker Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:12PM]

I think I threw up in my mouth a little bit.

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:13PM]

I wish I had one

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:10PM]

How can this dude pose and maintain a straight face..lol

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:12PM]

or straight wrists

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:12PM]

The irony in your comment is subtle and has made me lol

[Raziel66 Posted Jun 3rd 2009 6:01PM]

I think it's fabulous!

[AKJ Posted Jun 3rd 2009 11:12PM]

Easy, he's been a child actor.. remember that power glove kid? He's grown up.

Now he loves his holster, which is so bad.

[Rick James Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:12PM]

I feel like this guy should be wearing that No Fear t-shirt that said "second place is the first loser." That would complete the look.

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 6:01PM]

Or a wolf shirt...

[brytonic Posted Jun 3rd 2009 6:59PM]

@T-Will -- Awesome! hahaha

[MarcusMaximus Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:12PM]

I am a man! And a man doesn't carry a purse!

[Hckngrtfakt Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:15PM]

Oh you !!!

[NewL Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:38PM]

Well, certainly not one like that...

[ipodman715 Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:44PM]

men carry beards instead!

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 6:13PM]

I'm a man and I'm man enough to carry a "man-purse" - I carry a number of gadgets around with me not to mention a bunch of keys, a wallet and a checkbook. All of that stuff just doesn't fit into my pants pocket. If we met in person I don't think you'd dare to give me give me a hard time about it either.

[MarcusMaximus Posted Jun 3rd 2009 6:22PM]

And apparently nobody got the Scrubs reference...

[ncsustash Posted Jun 4th 2009 9:45AM]

Who carries a checkbook? My 55 year old mother doesn't even carry one anymore.

[Critic2029 Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:12PM]

If only this was socially acceptable.

[Duckman Posted Jun 3rd 2009 7:42PM]

I know wouldn't that be great?

[Brad Hubbard Posted Jun 5th 2009 9:29PM]

Here, just buy them made out of leather and metal, rather than what appears to be mousepad material.

Pardon the deuchy guy, but the product is actually quite nice.

[Coffee Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:14PM]

more like "toolbag 2.0"

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:25PM]

i agree

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:44PM]

I see what you did there...

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:15PM]

Its a shoulder holster for a gun, thats all that is. It looks like it would be great for CCW permit holders that wear jackets, but its a weapon holster.

[alextek Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:39PM]

Yeah, it looks like a gun vest. This is not only gay, but potentially dangerous if you go to the wrong neighborhood. From far away, it could look like a gun holster right on the open. It also looks like a gun vest without guns, yep unarmed.

[Juaquin Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:39PM]

The difference is that this really is being marketed for gadgets, not guns. That's what makes it lame. Way to pick up on that.

[Wwhat Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:17PM]

If he knew either men or women they'd tell him to at least not tuck in that t-shirt, so he must not.

[(Unverified) Posted Jun 3rd 2009 5:20PM]

Great, so you can up your risk of being mistakenly shot by the cops for the honor of looking like a super douche. It'd be great for salespeople.
