ASK HN: Future clothing

4 points by rosiusyves 11y ago ↗ HN

Why are we still wearing jeans with a T-shirt?

Do you guys have some suggestions for some proper future-proof clothing.

E.g. Waterproof, enhancing performance, health checking,...

Is there a company that already does have innovative clothing?

This isn't too futuristic, but it's very practical and better than jeans: https://arstechnica.com/gadgets/2013/08/the-technical-pants-...

For something with more tech in it, you could build a northskirt https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UktOOIK_6nU or a light-up dress http://www.ofbrooklyn.com/2014/01/15/adventures-in-wearable-... or add TRON-style EL wire to anything https://www.adafruit.com/blog/2011/10/11/tron-ify-anything-e... :)

That's indeed nicely hacked together.

These are some links I found earlier: https://developer.thalmic.com http://emotiv.com/

This combined with some virtual reality, or Google Glass, could be really great.
