Second Generation Smart Fitness T-Shirt

Expanding on the functionalities of the first-generation Smart Fitness T-shirt, the new Smart Fitness T-shirt is spun with conductive yarn that extends the signal to varying areas of the apparel, allowing the Smart module to be placed at other places on the shirt. This provides increased flexibility and creativity when it comes to T-shirt design and convenience for the user. The new generation of Smart T-shirt comes with increased ergonomic functions, allowing wearers to feel comfortable and stylish in it not only when working out but also for everyday use.
