After coming across this image of 2 Pac in a straitjacket, it made me think the way we get into jackets. Jackets usually have the opening at the front for convenience, but it would be interesting to put a jacket on in reverse, having the back at the front and the front at the back. It would be a lot harder to secure buttons on your back so you would have to accommodate for this, maybe using an easier alternative like a zip or velcro.

  2. Velco on the back would be a pain I reckon, it would stick just when and where you didn't want it to. Wetsuits for surfing have their fastening system at the back, usually a zip but not always. It will be interesting to see where this notion might go.
