When Technology Goes Awry: Keyboard Jeans

In case you don't spend enough time online already, "designer" Erik De Niks has come up with a way to check your email by the seat of your pants. Literally. There's a keyboard that spans across the crotch/thigh area, speakers installed in the knees, a specially designed back pocket to store your mouse and a joystick controller behind the front zipper. (Umm, we're sure the designer didn't mean it that way.)

He refers to these pants as "modern shaped trousers which are often worn by youngsters," but we think maybe he means jeans in general, because we can safely say we have yet to meet anyone rocking the keyboard jeans...yet.

Would you wear these pants? Or date anyone who wore these? [BWE via Vous Pensez]
