Future of Survival GEAR

Today I would like to talk a little about the future of Survival Gear.  We have not written a blog post in some time so I`d like to begin with a fresh topic.  
In our future we foresee more and more products becoming multi-functional.  Particularly clothing / fashion.  We are beginning to see an enormous influx of smart clothing and travel gear that allow you to hold more goods in a more compact discreet fashion.  This has evolved due to the fact that products are becoming more compact and lightweight as well as slim and sometimes flexible.  This is perfect for outfitting a jacket for instance with as assortment of pockets that can carry an array of items without being seen or noticeable from the outside.  Mobile phones are the biggest.  Not only are the super slim, they also have things like a camera, compass app, the time, phone and news at your finger tips as well as digital downloadable survival information that you can either download or view thru the internet. 
This has allowed us to carry less.   Many of the items we carried in the past are now all on our smart devices.  Its just incredible how fast we have come to this point in life and how our youth take it for granted.  They have no idea the struggles we once had just 20 years ago.  

The future is smart clothing combined with devices.  Being able to create clothing that interacts with our phones.  For example, a smart phone that controls the temperature of your jacket or can light up your jacket while walking at night.  There are as many ideas as you can dream up.   Incorporating survival gear INTO the jacket is another idea for those that desire it.  
I would like to talk in more detail about this at a later date, but for now I would like to ask you to think of what we could incorporate into our survival wear and mail us your ideas.
