I'm using an antiquated idiom to describe something that's cutting edge or revolutionary.

When I think of cutting edge or innovative gear used to sustain life, or something really well designed, I think of the PSP, PSP+, Doc Blue's Family Medical Kit, The Aqua Pouch Plus and Leatherman Tread.

What gear, used to sustain life, is so revolutionary, innovative or simply well designed that it deserves to be mentioned, regardless of the price?
