Ace Lace

by Josh Rubin

Ace Lace is an innovation in sneaker lacing created by Anna Freed. The patent pending solution laces shoes in a second and provides equalized tension for better support. It also makes for a pretty neat lacing pattern. There's a prototype pair of Reeboks fit with Ace Lace for sale on Ebay and Anna also has a video that shows them in action.

686 Toolbelt

by Josh Rubin

Good design is all about elegant problem solving. In this case, you often need to make an adjustment to your bindings while snowboarding, but carrying a set of tools around isn't always convenient. The Toolbelt from 686 Clothing Company solves this problem (and the baggy pants issue) by building 2 screwdrivers, 3 wrenches and a bottle opener in to a belt buckle. Very nice.
