It seems nowadays that almost every object in existence has been made into a USB card, from movie character heads to nail clippers. It only makes sense then that a Clothes Pin USB Drive was destined to hit the market.

Nothing too fancy here, just your standard [flash drive](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raspberry-pi-flash-drive) that comes in [2GB 4GB and 8 GB](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/extreme-fit-usb-c) flavors. Designed by ‘Brando’, the Clothes Pin USB Drive can also actually double as a real [clothes pin](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/note-clip), so after you’re done downloading those files, you can use it to hang up your t-shirt outside if you want.
