YUBZ, YUSUK; Retro at its Worst
13/01/09 05:45 Filed in: Fashionique
I came upon this wondrous invention in the city'super
design store. I'm guessing that YUBZ stands for 'you
buzz'; also I assume these can also be found being
dragged around soho (NYC, not HK) and other painfully
fashionable environs. Apparently someone hit on the
ingenious idea of making a cell phone earpiece into
an actual-size old school handset - so much for
decades of miniaturization and technological
breakthroughs. Note the convenient belt and backpack
carrier options below. I think this will do well with
those who are now assaulting our sensibilities with
day-glo 80's sweaters and leg warmers - not a good
idea then, criminal now.
This would be kind of funny, if not for the uber-hipster niche marketing. Honestly why not get a WWII backpack radio transmitter and haul that around Manhattan (ironically of course) or perhaps an iPod with an RKO gramophone tulip mounted on your shoulder. How fashionique!
