Ok, so we’ve seen enough clothes already with iPod pockets – and we’ve even seen those hoodies that have iPod control – but this is one of the first pieces of apparel by a mainstream brand to integrate the iPod technology so well (or so it sounds): Levi’s are to launch their RedWire DLX Jean – a jean designed to carry your iPod with hip-controls.
A joystick remote control has been sewn into the
jeans’ ‘condom’ pocket to enable operation of your iPod. Four-way controls
allow the wearer to play/pause, track forward, track back and
adjust the volume control without ever removing the iPod from the
pocket. Also, a "retractable headphone unit" has been
built directly into the jean too.

Looks like they’re making a belt buckle too….

All seems a little overkill to me.
