When SCOTTEVEST/SeV Travel Clothing CEO Scott Jordan founded the company ten years ago, he had no idea that his concept for a multi-pocket vest for "gadget guys" would evolve and influence the way people around the world think about travel clothing. But that doesn't mean that SeV has forgotten its roots; far from abandoning the gadget guys, active guys, photographers and 'guys who just love pockets' the latest additions to the SeV line are designed with these men - and women - in mind.

Heading into the Holiday Gift Guide season, Scott's company has developed several new clothing products, pushing SeV's total offerings to over 30 unique items. Every clothing design created by SCOTTEVEST retains the essence of their core concept: stylish garments that conceal well-engineered pockets that could supplement or replace a carry-on bag when traveling. Whether they are traveling around town or around the world, SeV's customers are opting to wear their carry-on necessities rather than lugging them around in a bag, beating the system every time they save $25 - $50 on bag fees, and saving time as they maneuver airport security "hands-free."

The full line of SCOTTEVEST Travel Clothing ranges from jackets to vests, pants, hoodies and shirts, with their latest introductions adding the Revolution and Revolution Plus Jackets (shell and insulated versions), a Trench Coat, a Sport Coat, a new vest and jacket designed specifically for women, and a field jacket called the Expedition featuring 37 pockets... the most ever put on a single piece of clothing. Every item in the SeV lineup is fully capable as a travel companion, and incorporates the TravelSmartSystemTM, a core group of features that includes a secure travel documents pocket, ID pocket, dedicated camera and eyeglass pockets, and a PadPocket™ which is able to hold an iPad™ in most sizes.

FOR MEN:

• REVOLUTION PLUS JACKET (see full specs here) is a new design from SCOTTEVEST, and is the warm, insulated successor to the popular SeV Evolution Jacket available in previous years. The Revolution Plus earns its name by featuring a quilted lining, making it the warmest SeV Jacket ever. It conceals 26 pockets, removable sleeves and a hood, all within a stylish black, waterproof, breathable shell material with sealed seams. The Revolution Plus is a pretty serious jacket, and fully capable of replacing a small carry-on while traveling for winter travel... or for those who don't believe in traveling light, this jacket can supplement a bag. Because this is a jacket, it is not subject to airline rules and regulations, and extra bag and carry-on fees do not apply.

  

  SeV CEO Scott Jordan explains, "A massive amount of experimentation went into fine-tuning the ergonomics of our clothing, with our NoBulgeTM pocket structure and Weight Management System built in, so even if a traveler is carrying something in every single pocket, they won't look or feel like a walking suitcase." "It's fully self-contained travel," Jordan continues, "This is a fantastic gift for frequent travelers and road warriors." The Revolution Plus is also available as an uninsulated shell marketed as the THE REVOLUTION JACKET (see full specs here).

   

  Both jackets share the same pocket structure, and the features listed above are in addition to SeV's typical travel features, which allow travelers to securely carry travel documents, cell phones and MP3 players (with a patented Personal Area Network - PAN - for wire management), eyeglasses and digital cameras. iPads™ and similarly-sized items can also fit in most sizes, so even when "traveling light" there's no need to leave anything behind.

• Another item designed with guys in mind is the EXPEDITION JACKET, humorously referred to as Pocketus Maximus in honor of its 37 pockets (full specs here). Styled after a field jacket with external and internal pockets and features, this jacket is available in Dark Gray and Safari and should hold anything you could need to carry with you (kitchen sink not included).

FOR WOMEN:

• Particularly suited to female travelers is the SeV GO-2 JACKET (full specs here). SeV developed the SeV Go-2 Jacket for women based on a very simple request: "We want something as cool as what you make for the guys!" The Go-2 Jacket is exactly that, and then some. They've combined all of the features associated with SeV - like the TravelSmartSystem™ and patented Personal Area Network (PAN) - and packaged them in a waterproof/breathable winter jacket with sealed seams, a removable hood and quilted lining insulated for extra warmth. Of course, the Go-2 Jacket is uniquely designed for the female body shape, regardless of how many of its 20 pockets are filled with daily or travel essentials. The Go-2 makes an ideal holiday gift for female travelers, since it provides an alternative way to carry everything they need without a bag, and still look great doing it.

SeV CEO Scott Jordan explains, "We designed the Go-2 Jacket to include all of our best features, while taking into account the unique requirements for women's clothing. Our NoBulgeTM pocket structure and Weight Management System are built in, so a woman wearing a fully-loaded jacket won't look or feel like a walking suitcase. It's fully self-contained travel," Jordan continues, "and it is a fantastic gift for winter travelers." The jacket includes all of SeV's hallmark travel features, which allow travelers to securely carry travel documents, cell phones and MP3 players (with a patented Personal Area Network - PAN - for wire management), eyeglasses and digital cameras. iPads™ and similarly-sized items can also fit in many sizes, so even when "traveling light" there's no need to leave anything behind.

• Another item designed with the female traveler in mind is the WOMEN'S LIGHTWEIGHT VEST (see full specs here), a pared-down version of the Women's Travel Vest that features updated styling, 20 hidden pockets and a mesh lining for added breathability in comfort. While this is designed to be used for travel to hot areas of the globe, this is not only hot-weather gear; the lightweight design and built-in Weight Management System distributes the weight of everything carried in the vest, making this a great layering option for the daily commute. Because the vest comfortably holds as much as a bag, but is not subject to airline rules and regulations, extra bag fees and carry-on fees do not apply to any SCOTTEVEST product.

FOR BUSINESS TRAVEL:

• Business travelers will love the new CARRY-ON COAT (see full specs here), a Trench coat with 33 hidden pockets, some large enough to carry folded shirts, pants and shoes. The Carry-on Coat redefines packing light by allowing travelers to replace the contents of a typical carry-on bag with a precisely engineered structure of pockets and compartments built into the coat. Because the coat holds as much as a bag, but is not subject to airline rules and regulations, extra bag fees and carry-on fees do not apply (and it beats trying to stuff a carry-on bag under the seat in front of you).

   

  

  SeV CEO Scott Jordan explains, "We fine-tuned the ergonomics of this coat, with our NoBulgeTM pocket structure and Weight Management System built in, so even if a traveler is carrying three days' worth of wardrobe items, toiletries and other essentials, they won't look or feel like a walking suitcase." In fact, SCOTTEVEST designed the Carry-on Coat for precisely this purpose: to allow travelers to go away for a weekend with everything they need (including extra clothing) concealed inside the coat. "It's fully self-contained travel," Jordan continues, "and SeV's engineering ensures that the traveler won't look overstuffed while going through the airport. This is a fantastic gift for frequent travelers."

   

  The Carry-on Coat is available in a rich Khaki and made of a Teflon™-treated waterproof and breathable material, and styled like a traditional Trench Coat. There is carrying capacity for up to four shirts and t-shirts, two pairs of slacks, socks, ties, underwear, a pair of shoes, toiletries in a quick-access 3-1-1 pocket for carrying the regulation 1 quart bag of 3oz. liquids, and more. These items are in addition to SeV's typical travel features, which allow travelers to securely carry travel documents, cell phones and MP3 players (with a patented Personal Area Network - PAN - for wire management), eyeglasses and digital cameras. iPads and similarly-sized items can also fit in most sizes, so even when "traveling light" there's no need to leave anything behind.

• Another item designed with the business traveler in mind is the SeV SPORT COAT (full specs here) with 24 pockets, a stylish cut and three-button front, and even a pocket suitable for carrying an iPad.
