Is your baby getting lazy – just lying around eating and sleeping all day? Sure, he’s only a few months old, but the constant freeloading can get on your nerves after a while. The baby mop transforms your adorable (but rather inefficient) little bundle into a valuable cleaning tool.
Whether you’re battling the forces of evil or the forces of nature, you’re going to need to protect your face. And what better way to do both than with this awesome Captain America Mask Costume Beanie? More »
Wearable technology has been around for quite some time now — around 10 years to be exact, and a company called TEC (Technology Enabled Clothing) has been at the forefront of that movement. Today at ShowStoppers at CES 2013, the company unveiled the TEC Jacket 2.0, which is still in its concept phase and we ended up getting a look at it to see what it offers.
The TEC Jacket 2.0 is seriously decked out with pretty much whatever you can think of. If there’s something technology related that would be a good idea on a jacket, this new TEC Jacket probably has it. First off, it’s made of a very lightweight material — it’s essentially a windbreaker on steroids.
It’s got an built-in battery pack made of flat cells all around the bottom, an antenna to boost your data reception to get faster LTE speeds, a hood-mounted heads-up display, strategically-placed LEDs that keep you safe at night while on the road, and a magnetic zipper that ensures it never comes loose in the heat of the moment. And of course, there’s plenty of specialized pockets that stash away all of your precious gadgets.
There’s also speakers mounted inside the two ends of the collar, as well as microphone integrated into the collar as well. There’s even coils on the inside of the chest area that can regulate body temperature when it’s cold outside. The company says that the TEC Jacket 2.0 will be available in about two months.

In medieval times when everyone was taking swings at everyone else with swords, chainmail was pretty much a wardrobe requisite. These days the threat of sword attacks are few and far between, but a German company called Gost thinks there’s still a place for chainmail in modern society. At least for athletes who’ve embraced the whole barefoot running trend. More »
Like the decidedly unsexy Depends underwear, Dear Kate underwear can hold lady liquid without getting ruined. The secret sauce is the thin wicking material that it’s made of that can withstand three teaspoons. But unlike Depends, you won’t be embarrassed when you strip to your skivvies. More »
A girl can never have too many clothes. That is, if she has unlimited funds and unlimited closet space. Unfortunately, that happens to be false (on both counts) for regular working girls like you and me.
But fortunately, innovations in fashion like Affectation exist. Or at least, they’re trying to, since this design is currently up for funding on Kickstarter.
It’s a magnetic fashion line that emphasizes the interchangeability of clothes with a few quick and easy snaps of the magnet. Articles of clothing available include ties, scarves, skirts, jackets, vests, and dress shirts.
Interested? You can head on over to the Affectation project page to check it out and view your options. A minimum pledge of $50(USD) will get women their very own multi-way magnetic scarf, while the men will receive a tie with an extra, interchangeable tail.

Though it’s growing incredibly rare to find occasions to wear tuxedos, it’s also growing incredibly common to pop bottle of champagnes when one wears a tuxedo. But though champagne and tuxedos get along swimmingly, champagne on tuxedo is not as nice a combo. That’s why Proof NY decided to make a techy tuxedo that can repel water and dirt and champagne.

My sister’s baby crawls around so much that the floor looks infinitely cleaner and shinier by the time she’s all crawled out.
Someone else must’ve apparently noticed this with their own babies, because why else would they come up with something as silly and amusing as the Baby Mop romper?
It looks just like a regular onesie at first glance, but check out the front and you’ll see that it has some super-absorbent cleaning pads attached in strategic locations. Set your baby on the floor dressed in this romper and get ready to have your floors buffed and polished, baby-style.
I mean, why waste all that free baby labor, right?
All kidding aside, this would make a fun present for baby showers and will definitely elicit a whole lot of laughs from your family and friends.
You can get them here for $40 a pair.
