More of a gimmick than an invention, but I can definitely see a market for this.

Fashion line aimed at travelers, with the purpose of quick passage through security gates.

• Belt buckles, buttons, clasps made of wood or plastic.
• Thin low-density slip-on shoes.
• Under-wire bras using plastic instead of metal.
• Thin fabric used in pockets, so you can easily tell if you've forgotten to remove your keys/cell phone.
• Easily removable clothing for the inevitable random strip search.

       I'd wear this stuff. Yes, I would. Good one, [World].

       Items like those mentioned _definitely_ exist. I can't say I see a market for a custom line of clothes dedicated to those of us subjected to frequent strip searches, although strippers already have market mavens.   

       Perhaps a "homeland security" approval tag or button that is integrated into generic items or emblazoned on tags of generic items?

       Can be sold at airports, at those posh shops, I like so much.
—zeno, Mar 08 2005
   

       Definitely a [+]. I do this to some extent when travelling but I would like to look less like a potato sack, by having something to wear other than uncoordinated draw-string cargo pants, jogging shoes, and the like.

       Sounds good to me. Actually, it could be made into a mandatory uniform - no suit, no flight.

       Needs rubber

       Grrrreat idea. [+]

       "Excuse me sir but we feel that you are trying too hard to avoid security snags and if we could just have you come into this room over here." <snap of rubber glove>   

       Yeah, [2 fries] we accidentally did that to my Dad one time. All us younger folks told him all our cheap travel tips, and he toddled off to Israel in wash-and-wear pants, cheap trainers and a nylon jacket, with only a daypack for luggage. Turns out that was exactly the profile for a one-way terrorist.

       That's quite funny, [baconbits]. I hope they weren't too hard on him.

       No, I'm sure after the full body cavity search and 'rubber hose' interogation conducted while the subject sat naked on a metal folding chair they all had quite a laugh! Those kooky Israeli's!
