discharging cowl - allows caster to place a spell they can cast on themselves without it laying a charge, allowing stacking.  Spell only lasts for 1 round, but can be triggered as an immediate action. Higher level versions allow higher level spells.
Shredding Spell (Feat) item
sorry, I only noticed your comments on the cloak of elvenkind as I was cleaning up the page, my bad! i'd like to keep the cloak of elvenkind name for legacy reasons (its all iconic). That said, 'shadestraithe mantle' is great, and we should keep it and make something cool out of it.  as for the stealth bonus, when combined witht he invis it's pretty strong already. I could see going up to maybe +5?  +6? thoughts?

the game is balanced (or it will be, if it isn't) around the assumption of a +9 enhance bonus to a skill at top levels, and invis, despite being a comparatively tiny bonus, is meant to push that over the top (and therefore be meaningful).

cloak of the hedge wizard = weaker cloak of reists that adds spellcasting. stacks with other spellcast items/rogue talents? scaling?
seafoam shawl = weaker cloak of resistance, gives swim speed, breathe water, protection against cold and pressure, plus scaling uses of fluid form spell
cocoon cloak = grants a cocooned 'safe' state while resting; higher levels might negate hits once per day, or even revive the dead to bloodied value once per day. Higher scales to more times per days, or earlier triggers, or both.
stone cloak = scale to be competitive with the cloak of resistance? weaker cloak of resistance that also give DR? both ER and DR vs AOE damage only? lots of options here
slashing cape = weaker cloak of reists that adds scaling point blank aoe damage based on melee BAB
juggernauts pauldrons = keep basic mechanic, scale properly
cloak of the eagle = weaker cloak of resistance, incorporate eagle cloak, wings of flying, wings of the gargoyle, wyvern cloak, scale all effects properly
