No-Contact Jacket sends a pretty clear message

no-contact jacket

Picture this, ladies: you're walking down the street and some sleazy guy put his arm around you. Rather than having to politely tell him you aren't interested in his unsettling advances, you just push a button and he gets zapped with 80,000 volts of pure lesson-teaching punishment. Sound good? Just get yourself the No-Contact Jacket to send a message that no lecherous guy will misinterpret. It features an electrified outer sleeve that is separated from the lining by a layer of rubber, so when you flick the switch in the sleeve anyone touching the jacket gets the zap while you remain nice and un-zapped. The peace of mind that comes with knowing you're wearing a giant taser isn't cheap, running about $945, but somehow I think it'll seem worth it the first time you use it.
