From now on, when people start asking you what the weather is, they won’t have to go to weather.com but instead they’ll just look at your shirt. The Unisex Thermochromatic Jersey T-Shirt is made of a special pigment that will change the color of the shirt when it is cold or warm depending on your body temperature or outdoor conditions. It is available in Hyper Vermillion (pink color), Hyper Green, Hyper Fast-Blue, and Hyper Fast-Black and it retails for $34 at American Apparel. And it’s worth checking out the video of the shirt in action on the product page, it’s pretty amusing.

Nearly 20 years ago there was a short lived craze, right before I went through my rave stage, of hypercolor shirts. They essentially did the same thing. The color modules that allowed the ink to change color would wear out in several months worth of washing, no matter the delicate settings on your system, and drip drying.
As an 18 year old, clothes that changed color seemed cool. I suppose to an 18 year old they still do.

Yup, cause that’s one retro item we had to bring back, cause we all love to let people know when were all hot & sweaty! Wasn’t a good idea in the 80s - still not a good idea!

All that happens is your boobs and pits show up as a different colour, not sexy, not cool.

For someone who’s never seen them in action, it sounds very cool and “magic”. But, as Claire pointed out… ew, sweat marks are ugly enough as they are.

Now we have to use a fancy name, eh? Thermochromatic? As soon as I saw this I was thinking HyperColor. So much simpler.
