The first accessory we came up with was the geek belt : Down where I live bolo’s or a sort of tie substitute are a big thing. so we came up with the geek bolo : In fact, you could use it to carry around a working network patch cable. Beauty and functionality combined. The newest member of the group is the Geek cuff links : Shame I do not have a French cuff shirt to really show them off.
