I have a co-worker who does magic tricks. He wants a straitjacket (real, not one of those stage ones) to work into his magic acts.
He’s looked around, and had no success.
I thought to myself, if ANYONE can find something rare or obscure, it’s got to be the SDMB.
So here I am, dopers! Don’t disappoint me!

Besides Posey, [Humane Restraint](http://www.humanerestraint.com/page15.html) also makes “humane jackets”. Googling for the company’s name shows a retail price of around $150.00.
