Andtie Scarf/Necktie Combo

For some of us, the winter months have just begun, which means ridiculously cold weather that no one should have to live in. Accessories such as gloves and scarves are a must. The Andtie Scarf will not only keep you warm but it will also add a touch of professionalism to your outfit since one end makes it look like you’re wearing a necktie. Pricing and availability on their website is very vague considering you need to email them in order to get the information you need. Either way you can email them at contact@andtie.dk to find out more.

The Smartguide heads up display attaches to your mirror and notifies you which quadrant you should be brushing in real time, all wirelessly of course. There are three different types of heads to choose from including FlossAction, Pro White, and Sensitive. If you’re thinking “I don’t want to spend this much for just me” then you should know that the heads are removable and come with colored rings so you can easily share the Triumph.

On Running Shoes

The new year is pretty much here and soon the gyms will be packed with those in hopes of shedding some pounds. One of the most popular exercises is of course is running. The only downside of running is that it places the highest impact on your muscles and tendons which could definitely cause problems. More than 2/3 of runners eventually suffer minor or serious injuries. On Running Shoes steps into the scene with a solution. They have patented the WaveStep Technology, which is an array of hollowed circular pieces of rubber underlining the shoes that will absorb the impact and release energy for the push-off via the interlocking pieces. They say it’s like running on clouds. Check out the video for the full explanation here. The On Running Shoes final design will be unveiled in Munich on February 2010.
