Today in Gear: Add These Products To Your Wishlist

Norwegian AI startup 1X Technologies AS has released a new android, Neo, which is designed to help people with everyday tasks but looks like a faceless bad guy you might encounter in a dystopian-themed nightmare. Maybe the latter is our hot take because it hasn’t cooled interest in 1X, which raised $100 million in funding on Neo’s back. The brand says it “designs androids that work alongside people, to meet the world’s labor demands,” and specifically built Neo with a humanoid figure citing benefits like the ability to communicate nonverbally. Is Neo is the stuff of nightmares or a catalyst for a more leisure-filled future? Only time will tell.

Today we’re taking a look at new Love Knot jewelry, a “self-flying camera,” a sleek tumbler aimed at the après-ski crowd and more. This is Today in Gear.

New Activewear from Smartwool

Smartwool

Smartwool launched a suite of brand-new items built with Intraknit Active technology, which combines merino wool (and all of its natural thermoregulating properties) with a 3D knit designed to increase breathability. The Active Fleece Tights ($72) are made with a brushed merino wool for an extra-soft next-to-skin feel. That same cozy fabric is used in the Active Fleece Insulated Glove ($36).

The Winter Jacket You’ll Love

Highland Duds

Highland Duds is an LGBTQ+ owned small business that produces an array of ethically made jackets and apparel. This means they create in small batches and in family-owned factories. We love the Varsity Wool Bomber Jacket ($268) and the classic Forecaster Jacket ($168).

A Sleek Tumbler

SMMT

The go-anywhere 3-in-1 Serpa Tumbler ($42) from SMMT can hold all of your favorite beverages, from your morning coffee to your aprè-ski drink of choice. The canister is insulated stainless steel and has a nested sipping lid and a leakproof top. The Serpa comes in three colors: Dreamscape Blue, Moonlit Carbon and Aspen White.

A New Drone

HOVERAir

It’s a bird! It’s a plane! It’s a … self-flying camera? That’s what Hover has coined its HoverAir X1 (from $349). We’d call it a pocket-sized drone aimed at the vlogging crowd equipped with five smart flight modes: follow, hover, zoom out, bird’s eye and orbit. The fully enclosed design means that you’ll never catch a propeller to the finger again.
