Gluejeans gives jeans a new contemporary twist. At the surface, just another piece of raw denim. But look closer and you will see an exclusive, hand-crafted pair of jeans. The concept? Jeans that are not stitched, but glued. Who would have guessed an idea so simple would be so well established.

It is probably the single most touched item in your daily arsenal. Our mobile phones are our lifelines and the closest thing to an adult security blanket we have. With all this daily interaction with a device, mobile phone makers are constantly looking for new ways of creating an even tighter emotional bond with your phone. One of the first things we think of (mostly subconsciously) when picking out a new mobile phone, is how it feels in your hands. You can make the most technically advanced gadget this planet has ever seen, but if it feels weird in your hands, your design will end up DOA. A perfect example of form over function is the Motorola RAZR, arguably the best selling mobile phone in history. It had one of the worst user interfaces ever created but felt damn good in your hands and that propelled it to its now legendary place in gadget history. Designers Hyun Jin Yoon and Eun Hak Lee have created a camera phone concept covered in thin wooden film. With the now requisite inclusion of touch sensitive buttons that light up just below the surface. This “Maple Phone” design measures 4.5 x 10.4 x 9.8 cm and slides open for more multi-media applications. With a soft, natural touch, this phone hope to bridge that coveted emotional bond.

No we are not talking about saving horny horses or Richard Gere circa 1980. “Cleatskins” are basically Crocs with a friggin’ purpose other than to offend those with taste. Intended as a quick slip on protector for athletic shoes used in football, futball, baseball and golf. Greatly extending the lifespan of the spikes, cleats or studs found on the bottom of all these shoes. They also help to keep dirt and grass from tracking into your car or home. Made from SKINTEK rubber, a formulation of compression molded rubber, and come in two designs – pull-over and slip-on. They come in tons of team matching colors and will retail for about 35 US green backs.
