Hiker to Town Bandana Billboard
What’s the secret to a quick and timely hitchhike? ADVERTISING. But this Hiker To Town bandana excels beyond all others thanks to technology and Madison Avenue savvy.
Attached to the corners are pads of Velcro (patent pending #24897Y-46). Then, stuck onto your hiking poles are also small pads of Velcro (included naturally). When joined they become a taut billboard stating that your not a drifter, but just a hiker wanting to see small town America with all its delicious bounty.
But the innovation doesn’t stop there. Postcard has spaced out the typography of Hiker To Town on this bandana (21 inches x 21 inches) so that drivers can see and read it from a greater distance – an old billboard advertising technique. Additionally, the message is in the friendly, disarming color of blue and not the sinister “don’t pick me up? color of black. And since it’s a bandana, it folds away to nothing when done. Brilliant.
Tested from Georgia to Maine on two Appalachian Trail thru-hikes as well as the barren desert southern regions of the PCT delivering an incredible 93.8% effectiveness. This remarkable billboard will work whether you’re moving northbound or southbound (no, really) whether you’re facing east or west or standing in the rain or the sun. Its allure works equally for male or female, domestic or international, religious or heathens, skinny or plump, dirty or smelly or both. Sit on it, wear it or clean your dishes with it, it’s the one piece of gear that’s “two thumbs up?. So, don’t just stand there, get picked up.
