When we first heard about a T-shirt called the T-Equalizer we half expected to see a garment depicting a moody Mr. T pitying fools. But no, the T-Equalizer gets its name from the fact it has an insanely great graphic equalizer across its chest.

But it's not some ironed-on picture of a classic LED equalizer (like the one shown when KITT talked to Michael). No, this particular equalizer is of the electro luminescent variety, and it actually reacts to the music it 'hears'. How? Well a clever little mini battery pack is hidden in a pocket just inside the hem. This powers the gleaming LEDs on the equalizer. Clever, eh?

Rendering every other 'look at me' T-shirt utterly obsolete, the T-Equalizer is the ultimate in clubwear. Forget about sweary shock Ts and retro schlock Ts, this eye-catching shirt is guaranteed to mesmerize fellow clubbers and pubbers as it illuminates and moves in time to the music.

We've noticed that the T-Equalizer goes mad to that 'uncha-uncha-uncha' cacophony favored by club-goers, but it also seems to like metal and the (cranked up) theme to Fraizer. The darker the venue and the louder the music, the better.

Even if you're not into music or going out, the T-Equalizer represents a great addition to any wardrobe because it's so darned original. Indeed, turn the lights off, breathe heavily and roommates could be forgiven for thinking Darth Vader had just entered the room. Okay, they'd have to be pretty stupid roommates but the fact is this hi-tech T-shirt could be from outer space...if you squint hard enough.

We donned our T-Equalizers for a night out and lost count of the people who asked where we got them. Of course, we said Firebox. And so will everyone else, so get ordering and pump up the volume before it's too late.
