Surely a Burberry version of the jacket can't be far behind

'Worn black side out, the jacket works like a conventional insulated performance top, but as temperatures climb - on a glacier for example - the jacket can be reversed with the aluminium-coated silver side reflecting approximately 40 per-cent more of the sun's rays than the black surface.'

Why not just take it off when you get hot?

Surley a major selling point would be for teenagers to leave the house it it blackside facing(so not attracting mothers attention) and when they meet their chavy friends they can wow them by turning it inside out and becoming supa chav!!

A jacket that turns into a tent for emergencies, or vice versa, would be much more interesting and innovatively original though, don't you think?

Indeed... I'd like to see someone reverse it WITHOUT taking it off!
