We are crazy about smart textiles and wearable technologies. With a background in urban and activewear design, we understand the meaning of function and how clothing is meant to work with our bodies, not just sit on top of them. When we think of clothing, we usually just think of it as something we wear to provide coverage, convey our sense of style and protect us from the environmental elements. But, the future of clothing as we know it is about to change in a big way, and smart textiles are paving the way for this change together with wearable technologies. What makes smart fabrics revolutionary is that they have the ability to do many things that traditional fabrics cannot, including communicate, transform, conduct energy and even mend themselves on their own.
