Guitar Neck Socks?

There is a company that now sells "protective socks" for your guitar. The socks are designed to "protect and prolong the life of your strings, and keep dust & dirt out of hard to clean areas like your bridge & pick-ups, as well as many other benefits." Besides being hideous I have to question how necessary they actually are. But if you're very protective of your guitar this could be the product you've been waiting for. (HT: bonerici)
