Post Apocalypse Fashion: Urban Security Suit

When the post-apocalypse gets here, we humans will only have one concern: Fashion.

It’s not enough to survive, we will also form tribes based on clothing. Rap music has taught me that in parts of California, where the post-apocalypse has already appeared, people are killed over wearing the wrong colors. If Toronto took things that seriously, we could really be a fashion capital.

But someone in Holland is finally taking post-apocalypse fashion seriously. Tim Smit has designed the “Urban Security Suit.” Doing away with the dated look of Mad Max, he had decided that post-apocalypse style need not be cobbled together out of old football equipment. It can be elegantly designed.

His suit is made from neoprene and body molded kevlar. There is a handy pocket for your gas mask — a definite do — and a handsome hood to help obscure your identity from anyone you may be killing, robbing or raping. Come the post-apocalypse, you’ll want to be seen — briefly — in this.
