Is this the invention that sleepy travellers everywhere have been waiting for?
A travel accessories company has created a hybrid coat and pillow for people who like to sleep as they fly.
Tumi's Patrol Travel Puffer Jacket is designed to be stuffed inside a pouch sewn into the collar to make a supportive travel pillow, ensuring a flight or long coach trip is more enjoyable.
Forget having to buy a new pillow every time you fly with Tumi's Patrol Travel Puffer Jacket. Hidden in the collar is a pouch that you can stuff the entire puffy jacket into, creating a comfy neck pillow (right)
The lightweight jacket comes in four different colours and when worn protects against the elements with a cosy down filling inside a rain- and snow-resistant nylon shell.
Available in five different sizes, the Pax Patrol Jacket retails for around $150 (£95).
One of a new breed of travel inventions, it's not the only jacket on the market to offer an additional function other than keeping warm.
It looks just like a normal jack from the outside (left) but its clever design means it doubles as a neck support.Just in case you forget how to do it, handy instructions are printed on the inside of the coat (right)
New York based Hammacher Schlemmer also sell a similar item of clothing with the only difference being it's a two-tone red and black number.
Manufacturers are clearly listening to travellers who want increased comfort on long journeys.
Just don't ask what happens when you can't sleep because you're too cold.
Put the internet to work for you.
