To be competitive in today’s clothing market, you can’t just be another item on a rack — rather, you’ve gotta go beyond fashion. And thanks to a new design from Guess, your latest pair of jeans from their Jeancare collection is going to do much more than keep you covered — they’ll slim your butt and thighs, and more impressively, they even claim to hydrate, nourish, and soothe your skin. Who knew that a fabric reinforced with blood flow-improving ginkgo extract, antioxidant-laden vitamin E, and the delightful smells of lavender and chamomile would ever grace our bodies?

These wonder clothes work by way of a multitude of microcapsules that are embedded throughout them. When you walk, the capsules burst, releasing this nourishing mix onto (and I suppose into) your skin. And it’s not just regular old blue denim that make use of this impressive new technology — Guess has also applied the formula in white skinny jeans, high-rise leggings, a pencil skirt, a dress, and a crop top. The cheapest piece in the collection starts at $59 (for the top), and prices go up to $128 for the pants. And considering the price of other designer jeans, this price range for clothing that doubles as a personal spa is not bad at all.

Of course, the obvious issue with this design is keeping it clean — a Guess spokesperson warns against “heavy washing” for fear of soaking away all the extra features, and since your clothes are made to smell like lavender, you won’t have to worry about your natural odors anyway (up to a point, at least).

So if you want to “feel as good as you look,” invest in one of Guess’ Jeanwear pieces, and never worry about lotioning, working out, or I guess, showering again.

Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 vs. Fitbit Sense

The Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 smartwatch, worn on a person's wrist.

The Galaxy Watch 4 is Samsung's take on a modern, hi-tech wearable that doesn't imitate an old-school analog wristwatch. It eschews the classic design of its predecessors for a sleeker, more streamlined look, while also providing some excellent hardware and features. These include a Super AMOLED touchscreen, 16GB of internal storage, generous battery life, and some great health-tracking software.

It's certainly one of the best smartwatches out there, but in a market saturated by Apple Watches and various Android equivalents, it certainly isn't without competitors. One of these is the Fitbit Sense, which in 2020 emerged to offer a premium version of the core Fitbit experience, replete with an ECG sensor, a choice of virtual assistants, and a wealth of fitness features.

What makes MR-G so special?

These models, its most luxurious, are assembled by hand on Casio’s Premium Production Line located in the Yamagata factory in Japan, where only the company’s most experienced, specially certified technicians work on the top MT-G and MR-G models.

The square G-Shock is one of the most popular models, having been around since the G-Shock brand first started in the early 1980s, and bringing it to the luxury MR-G range is going to see a lot of people reaching for their wallets. What makes it so special? It’s the first time the classic, beloved square G-Shock has been given the MR-G treatment, with most other MR-G models over the past few years featuring an analog dial. There's a huge section of an already large fan base waiting for this.
