Cube holster

How about a cube helmet? Similar to a beer helmet?
I was thinking along the lines of like, 1 3x3x3 on each side and a GigaMinx on top. WWII style German army helmets would give the whole design a pretty good base, preferably in orange or something...And some kind of mech that scrambles the cubes automatically when you put them back? Man, I might be onto something here. I wouldn't wear one myself to be frank, but would be happy to sell them ;). Please post funds to PayPal account [email protected] :tu
 
Am I the only one thinking this will make cubers look really stupid?

No. While I do admit I would be nice to have the cube out of my pocket because 1 it's uncomfortable and 2 it does looks weird to have a big square 3x3 bulge in your pocket. But this holster just sticks out to far in a very open place. I dont have a solution to the pocket problem but I really don't think it's this. I mean come on someone that has no idea about speed cubing or any thing of the sort would see someone wearing this and just think omg look at that dork. Although I think it's a good idea on paper I just don't think it's to practical. I'll stick to my pocket for now.
 
I think we'd look silly like this and when sitting down there's a risk we'd sit on it... or something.
However the only reason why we'd look stupid is due to most people being non-cubers... In fact silly is simply relative... or something like that. There's my opinion :)

You'll become more familiar with that issue once you get older ;)

Well, that went over like a lead rake, at least I tried it.

(it'll snag on stuff)
This is not for use while playing touch football or practicing military maneuvers, it's for when your hanging out with other nerds.
(you'll sit on it)
I do not sit on my side? It's a 3x3, not a fencing foil...
(you'll get beat up)
That's a little sad. What else of your character do you forfeit to rule of the mighty? Stand up for yourself, do what you want to do.
(you'll shoot your eye out)
Poor Ralphie.
(holsters are ridiculous)
We base our economies on finite resources with no concrete idea of how long those will last, countries are on the verge of default, irreversible damage is being done to the environment, while we, some of us grown adults, are playing with toy puzzles? How is that not ridiculous? Moral is we all live with ridiculousness, some forms are more acceptable then another, it's all subjective choices we all make.
(it's dorky)
Some would say cubing, or being an engineer, or having a balanced checkbook, is dorky. What else are you willing to forgo the moment anyone calls it dorky?

Cube holsters aren't for cubers: I get it. But if a holster is the problem, a 3x3-sized oddly placed clothing bulge is not the solution. Not all of us carry backpacks all the time, that's dorky. (yay labeling people!) My idea for a fast way for a cuber to cube while still being accepted by fellow cubers is not dead, it's just sleeping.

I obviously don't forgo much seeing as how I cube in public as well as contact juggle and am very proud of being called a trekkie but I have to draw the line at things that I do or were when I personally think it's dorky
