Smart pants for Cell-Phone users
Singapore-based garment manufacturer Crocodile International, will be launching smart pants or "Radiguard' specialty trousers" for cell-phone buffs who exposed exposed to the ultra magnetic emission from the cell-phones.
"Radiguard' specialty trousers whose pocket linings will be made of emission shell fabric, a woven mix of cotton-polyester interlaced with titanium steel - is capable of filtering out the electro magnetic rays known to emit from the cellular phones which are said to be causing harmful effects on human body.
But it won't block the cell phone signal, according to Fiber to Fashion.
In September 2002, Levi Strauss announced the launch of a new Dockers' model with anti-radiation-lined pockets, prompted by customers' concerns about the possible health risks of mobile phone use.
The "Dockers S-Fit" men's trousers were to include a cell phone pocket with a "radiation-reducing" lining. Anyone ever see a pair anywhere?.
