Occasionally I see some interesting travel related products being crowd funded that I think you guys might be interested in. We’ve talked about the Tropicfeel travel shoe, the Cleansebot bacteria killing robot, and the AirThrone travel lounger, among others. Here’s a few of the travel related crowd funded projects that I’ve seen.

Today I wanted to talk a bit about the Duotek jacket, which bills itself as an ultralight reflective and reversible jacket
All Kickstarter / Indiegogo links in this post may pay me a commission if you boost the project through my link.
DuoTek ultralight jacket features
DuoTek is releasing 2 different versions of their jackets – The only difference is that the “Cool” is thinner and lighter while the Shield is made for colder climates.
Here are a couple of pictures of the DuoTek ultralight jackets
