Colorfast Apparel has created the ultimate clothing item for all us nerds — a hoodie with headphones built into the drawcord, which connects directly to an iPod/mp3 player via an audio input jack in one of the pockets! Colorfast is a leader in fashion technology with their Active Audio engineered garments, pushing the boundaries of design, fabrication, and treatments. Active Audio holds the exclusive patent rights to this drawcord earbud technology. This hoodie is not only really well made, comfortably soft, and awesomely functional, it’s also machine washable (including the audio receivers)! This is perfect to wear when you’re out running or just whenever you feel like listening to music throughout the day.

The pictures below are of me showing the integrated audio wires on the inside of the jacket that connects the pocket jack to the drawcord earbuds (left) and how the hoodie looks like when I’m listening to music (right). When I first saw this zip-up sweatshirt, it was love at first sight! There were many times when I wanted to listen to music only to realize that I forgot to bring my earphones with me. This hoodie makes listening to music so convenient! Plus, I love how I won’t have to deal with tangled earphones anymore.

The only other jacket I’ve been equally impressed with is my heated jacket that I wrote about in a previous post. Colorfast makes these hoodies in different colors for women, men, and kids. I bought mine for $60.00. If you like to listen to music on the go and/or like to get your hands on the latest high-tech items, this hoodie is a must have!
