It’s a beautiful thing when fashion and functionality come together. You may already be set with your iPod jeans (even though you had a lapse of judgement and bought the Zune), or your fishing vest (even though you don't own a fishing pole), or those carpenter pants (even though you don’t own a hammer), but are you prepared for that freezing cold winter smoke without the freezing cold hands? These styling mittens from Tobias Wong allow you to enjoy cigarettes even on the coldest day in Iceland. Or maybe you don’t smoke any more than you own a fishing lure, but why not invest in a pair just for that high fashion, sexy yet functional little element -- the metal eyelet. Maybe you could get yourself a spot on Project Runway and design the ultimate goose down smoking jacket. Or start your own Tobias Wong Mitten Cigar Bar.
In fact -- warning: tangent -- an icey cigar bar is not so far out of your reach. In Minneapolis there is a seasonal hot spot called the Ice Chamber. It’s a bar constructed of ice, but it’s warm inside with the burning gas fire pit and abundance of quality booze to keep you warm. So why not light up a few cigars? Wait? Does that eyelet come in cigar size? And will it it hold a Pogo stylus in case you need to make a phone call or check how many calories a Hot Toddy has? Wong may have a little work to do with these mittens, but the potential -- my god.
