• Titan Multi-tool Collar Stays Keep Collars Sharp, Do Stuff

  In Clothing

  

  I wouldn’t go as far as saying that these Titan Multi Tool Collar Stays are one of those ingenious “why didn’t anyone think of this before” ideas – they are pretty good, but not quite in that league. So what do they do? Their primary function is to hold your collar up – they are made of titanium so they should be light enough to forget about; but they are able to do a little [...]

  In Clothing, Geeky

  

  If you don’t want an in-your-face geek watch, then it could be worth giving the Cadence Watch Company’s new 4-bit Chronograph a look. On the surface it looks like a regular watch, albeit one without numbers – but some watches don’t have numbers. On closer inspection, however, you can see that the watch does have numbers on it, the difference is that they are written in 4-bit binary. Aside from that, it is a regular [...]

• Adidas Previews Some TSA-friendly Shoes

  In Clothing

  

  Adidas’ new SLVR S-M-L Concept shoes are designed to shave a few seconds off the security checkpoint time. The 4-way stretch mesh upper makes them easy to slip on and off or to stash in carry-on luggage. They are unisex and come in 3 sizes (S, M, and L).

A charge (via USB) will give you up to five hours of heat – after which it should still do a pretty good job of keeping you warm. Price: $900 [Technabob]
