The Mirrorshades of Saint Gibson by Ray

"Most Saints get coins, some get statues, some get crosses named after them, though THAT tends to be hard on 'em! St. Gibson gets Mirrorshades... At least they're useful, and look good!" -- Spider Murphy

"I want it down on the record that if I'm ever Canonized, I want a Beer Glass as my symbol!" -- Ray
 
"Like that'll ever happen, Old Man!" -- Rache Bartmoss 

"Rache, go screw an Electron!" -- Ray


Saint Gibson, patron Saint of Cyberspace and her "Netizens", is a well known icon of this world, his shrines (Small rack of his books) can be found in almost every 'Netrunner bar on Spaceship Earth (And a few off it, too!).

But his main Icon, the one that lets 'Netrunners know one another, are a special set of Mirrorshades. High quality, scratch resistant, and guaranteed not to peel!!! If you're wearing these when walking into a 'Runner bar, 
however, always remember to glance at the shrine, and tap the "Gold" stud! This is asking for his protection against IC and the Corporate 'Runners!

Also, if you don't do this, it proves how big a Wanna-be you really are!!!

Cost: 25-75 Euro, depending on area. "Special" Copies are said to have been made, and handed out to the legends of the 'Net, but that's just a rumor!


"Reflection" Mirrorshades by Ray

Regular Mirrorshades won't REALLY deflect a laser beam, they'll only burn, then it's your heads turn!!! Our patented "Reflection" technology reflects a MilSpec Laser at full power! Every Time, or your money back! (Basically a set of Mirrorshades with One-Way Mirrored Glass instead of cheap plastic lenses, treated with a shatter resistant coating. That's it).

Cost: 250% of Mirrorshades of equal quality/style


Reversible Armored Clothing by Ray

No longer does style have to get in the way of an op! The newest fashion is reversible!!! One one side of the clothing is the latest fashion that says "I'm important enough to be shot at!", while the other has a cammo pattern of your choice!!!

Cost: +15% of Clothing (See Chromebook 4)


Suit in a can by Lauri C. Gardner

Suit in a Can are found in street vending machines near all the major shopping complexes. The Suit in a can is a full body suit that can be worn once you can extract from its package. The packaging when originally compresses measures 2"x3"x3/4" (it is not possible to compress it back down to its original size, but it will still fit in the 4oz. can that it came with).

The suits themselves usually have something printed on them, ranging from cheeky postcard pictures to company logos (low end, best for keeping your normal clothes dry and / or clean).
One company has produced some however that can be quite the fashion statement (x4 cost).

They can withstand wind/rain/pollutants quite well, and are semi durable.
It should be noted that the suits are pretty much a disposable item, and in the case of acidic pollutants they are only good for 1 day.

There are also models out that are designed for arctic weather (up to -30'C).

Price: 5-10eb

(Got this idea from Deep Eddy, thanks Bruce for the idea!)
