One of the many options to conceal booze is in the unsuspecting 'Drinkman' flask, a product that will bring nostalgia to those born in the '80s.
Since vintage is a huge thing now and drinking never seems to go out of fashion, the Drinkman brings the best of both worlds for all. The flask is shaped like a classic Walkman (the thing before MP3s were around). Much like the vintage music player, it has all the large buttons, tape deck and the designers even made it look like there’s a tape inside. However, instead of holding tracks, this will hold whatever poison suits the taste buds.
There’s no word on when the Drinkman is out, but expect it some time this year.
