And you thought velcro was just for sneakers and safety darts–think again! The “Takkiainen” jacket designed by Aamu Song & Johan Olinis made entirely out of the self-sticking fabric. The images show people globbing together in flash mob masses and tacking their kids to themselves.
Apparently the concept is that clothing can be “a medium for meeting people and communicating with them.” The likelihood is that the only communication you’ll inspire will contain expletives. And if you happen to meet someone else wearing velcro, god bless you both.

I’d love a brief for this lot…
Big velcro billboard, throw yourself against it and win prizes :)
In fact, everything everywhere should be covered in velcro -a kind of real life Katamari…

What happens if you finally meet that other person wearing velcro, and you’re both wearing “hook” or both “loop” and then you cant communicate.. it would be a travesty.

Well, you could form a “hookless” gang and seek out the “hooked” ones for some hook-on-hookless action.
