The AMC website has a feature where you can MadMen Yourself. Here’s what I came up with.

There’s lots of fun things going on here… Post your desktop up and leave a comment or trackback if you think you can do better.

I found some videos of a material called d3o that looks incredibly awesome. It’s soft and pliable, so you can wear it, but when you bash it really hard it locks up and can protect you from things like shovel impacts.

sixsixone has some kneepads made of this stuff, if you’re willing to spend $100. Some other companies are making beanies out of d3o as a sort of alternative to wearing helmets. Now you can look ’street’ while being safe at the same time!

Here’s some videos of this d3o material -

Here’s a video I found of the procedure.
