Jacket With an Inflatable Hood Is Perfect For Sleepy Travelers
Could this invention be the easiest way to sleep on that long trip to no where?
Get a good nights sleep on a plane or train!:

Sleeping on a train, plane or car would be a hell of a lot more comfortable if your jacket had a hood that could inflate and function as a pillow.
The jacket, confusingly dubbed "Never Stop a Rolling Stone" by designer Rahel Ritchie features a fully inflatable hood that can be manually adjusted via a mouthpiece tucked away in the fabric. Unfortunately, it doesn't appear that this concept is available for sale. However, the snowboarding experts at Burton have had a similar product on the market for a while now.
The latter is actually a hoodie and it doesn't feature a fully inflatable hood—but it does have a built in eye mask and earplugs for lullaby listening.
