Based on what I saw at Outdoor Retailer, two trending items were insulated cups and portable bluetooth speakers. Designing one of these products to stand out from the crowd is the real challenge. JBL had on display, five of their newest portable speaker options. Ranging from their smallest offering, the Clip 2 to the ultra […]

As you may know, I’m a bit of a Yeti fanboy. While kicking around at Outdoor Retailer in Salt Lake City, I happened across another cool product from this titan of chill. Yet this is Yetis first product designed not to keep your drinks cold. What’s that you say? Yep, designed NOT to keep anything […]
