Can’t wait – Christmas in Savannah – no snow, great old houses covered in blinking LEDs (I hope). And making sure that there can be even more Christmas lights installed in a shorter time for more Christmas Time Blinky LED pleasures … please consider this vest.

Designed and used by holiday lighting professionals, this utility vest minimizes trips up and down a ladder when hanging Christmas decorations. A specially designed storage pack on the back stows up to 20 strands of lights that stay out of the way, but remain at the fingertips when needed. Where other tool belts and aprons have yawning pockets that risk spilling their contents, these storage compartments come with zippers–one even has an embedded spring that clamps shut after withdrawing your hand.

Strategically placed exterior pockets provide space for tools, a pen, and a two-way radio, while a lined, water-resistant compartment holds a phone or MP3 player. By enabling faster set up, the vest facilitates the creation of elaborate seasonal displays, as well as their prompt dismantling, preventing scornful backlash from neighbors and homeowner’s associations. Reflective strips increase the wearer’s visibility during nighttime work. Made of weather-resistant, heavy-duty polyester.
