In a world where you can buy rod holders in gold metal and dock lines in every color of the rainbow, it was perhaps inevitable. But it is nonetheless shocking. Duct Tape, considered among the most useful inventions since it was developed during World War II, has gone designer.
Once a ubiquitous shiny gray, or occasionally black, Duct Tape can now be found in most primary colors. But it has gone far beyond that.
