What's Your Favorite Piece of Non-Bike Gear that Happens to Work Great on a Bike?

There's lot of talk about great bike-specific apparel shoes, bags, etc. But what are some pieces of gear that weren't originally intended for use on a bike, but work great for it anyway?

For example, I love the Kuhl Renegade pant. It happens to be meant for hiking and rock climbing, but since it's stretchy and wicks away sweat, it's my go-to for bike commuting. In the summer, I often wear the Renegade shorts for mountain biking and recreational riding: http://www.kuhl.com/kuhl/mens/pants/renegade-pant/

Anyway, I'm interested to hear what people recommend.

Sorel winter boots - so warm and protects from slush, salt, etc

I love my Sorel winter boots too. I have had mine for over ten years. They really last and still look good.

Super Sound gas cartridge horn.  So long as the outside temperatures aren't too cold, it will deliver a loud blast of sound that will get any motorist's attention.
