We’ve gotten used to the idea of the word “tech” being used in reference to digital hardware with flashing lights and complex mechanics, but it doesn’t always have to be like that. Sometimes tech is just an innovative spin that simplifies items we use daily, things that make you think “I wonder why they didn’t do this sooner?” Heyup Tryouts aims to shine a spotlight on such tech, and it’s always so exciting to see the innovative solutions that are being created around the world.

The Heyup community is a place for tech enthusiasts to engage with one another about current affairs and new releases in the industry, and it’s also a platform that gives everyone involved a chance to review the latest tech for free. Even if you have no former experience in the tech industry, showing a keen interest and engaging on the platform can increase your chances of reviewing Heyup Tryouts. 

There are three new items on our list of tryouts that aren’t completely new ideas, but they certainly do fit in the category of inventions that make you wonder why the world has taken so long to materialize them. We’d like you to try them out.

TexTale Oops Stain-Repel Tee

TexTale is a tech company that mixes technology and fashion to create textiles that solve everyday problems. The clothing itself has a traditional minimalistic design, but it’s made with stain-resistant fabrics that don’t wrinkle and don’t shrink over time, so you can stay looking your best throughout the day and many days to come. The t-shirt has threaded ribbing on the collar and vertical threading on the hem and sleeves that exhibits exquisite craftsmanship.

This item is on the Tryouts list because while it may not appear like it at first glance, TexTale provides a tech-savvy solution to the way we interact with clothing, and it can be considered eco-friendly for minimizing the need for ironing, and outfit changes throughout the day. The water-resistant t-shirt has a simple design that can take you from work to a night out, which means it can also save you time even if you get caught in the rain. Their EasyClean collection also features a long sleeve tee and a water-resistant hoodie, plus they have a collection of Odor-free tops. Hopefully, TexTale will put these fabrics on more items of clothing so we can enjoy a fully stain-free life.

Donha Egg Watch & Bob Dylan Harmonica Necklace

Egg Watch

In this digital age, a traditional timepiece can be viewed as more of a fashion statement than a functional gadget. Most of us can connect our phones to a smartwatch that not only tells time but serves as an extension of your phone. The downside to this is both devices need to stay charged to serve their purpose, and if they both run out of juice, then you’re out of time.

The Donha Egg Watch has taken the idea of being a fashion statement and run with it at full speed. This timepiece incorporates the design elements of old pocket watches and dial padlocks to deliver a very simple and stylish solution to a digital age problem. The egg shape design reminds us of the infinite possibilities provided by time, and how precious our time is. 

Bob Dylan Harmonica Necklace

Though it is mostly a fashion statement, the Bob Dylan Harmonica Necklace maintains the essence of functional fashion. It sits on an adjustable chain that lets you adjust it to form layers when wearing multiple chains, or you can place it at a distance that’s comfortable enough to play. Yes, you can actually play it. It’s a piece that’s dedicated to one of the greatest songwriters of all time, so it’s also engraved with the title of one of his greatest hits, Like a Rolling Stone.
